SD idea #2 Photoshop

Topic: 
My topic would be a photo shot that will cover the topic of American lifestyles and fashion. This will be done by taking photos of people, items, and places to portray a mood.


Problem I am trying to solve: 
I am trying to fix how "we as a culture" see ourselves. Im trying to show "us" and "what we do" in a way that will get people to change for the better. I plan on doing this by using images, showing them in a way that will get the viewers attention and get them thinking.

Why I want to solve this problem:
I want to solve this problem because are culture has taken a turn towards obesity, laziness, arrogance, self-centeredness, and the idea of "if I don't see it it's not a problem." These ideas must change, if they don't they simply will be are downfall, if not it will simply make us worse humans.


The learning Stretch:
This will go beyond my understanding of photography, creating a proper mood through art. The project will go beyond how I see myself and the world around me, thus making my art more personal and understandable.


Project Components:
Camera: I need this to take photos.
Paper: to outline what I want to portray and take notes on that subject
Physical model: I need to show my work so ill print the photos, thus being a physical model of them.
People: I need some subjects to photograph
Building or places: used to create the mood or be the subject themselves. 




Budget:
The cost of the project would come from the cost of printing the photos. This will be a mid ranged budget.
Possible Problems:
Problems I may encounter would be finding the proper "model" for my idea or crating the proper mood.
