Truth, Fantasy or Fiction

The best part about the starting point is that you didnt have to use all 3 words as you could have chosen just one, which gave tou a wide range of ideas to choose from.

This is my overall view of truth fanctacy and fiction, I looked into many things such as surealisum and how I could make very thing look sureal, I looked into books and storys, where I could have told a story though my art as I went a long,  Looked into camera techniques to where I would change how I took a picture to make it look fantasy like.
I was very interested in macro and getting close up tho things, as its something I had never done before much like portraits which I could have mixed with surealisum. I found that I should stick to my strengths and use film and photoshop and the the techniques around that to change the image (the truth)
Initial ideas involve film and digital, sticking with my strengths of effects, colour and photoshop.  My initial ideas were post or pre production to effect the truth. I wanted to do both but figured that it was a very broad and have chosen to focus on pre production techniques, "destroying the truth through pre production techniques".

Starting with ideas such as double exposure, filters, prisms, long exposure, film destruction , partially covering the lens. Looking at a few artists who use each technique. I have also looked into using expired film and combining all of the above to create some hybrid of techniques.
