Before Photo shoot:
The article on the lower Manhattan revival goes many differences and changes over the years such as the new Freedom towers, the area becoming more culturally open and the diversity the location leaves it open for change for the future. My main idea for this shoot is to let people know that the lower Manhattan area is more than just the freedom tower and wall street. So through the use of bright and vibrant colors i would like to capture small areas in lower Manhattan and give it a more independent vibe.
Communication Problem: How do you show the lower Manhattan area in a bright light, without making it all about the Freedom tower? The lower Manhattan area branches out all the way to Tribeca, wall street and many more other neighborhoods.
After Photo shoot:
I managed to get two separate shoots to help express this articles ideas, one of the lower manhattan area between Tribeca and wall street, and the other being about the freedom tower being rebuilt. I didn’t edit the light because the day was bright and beautiful. I edited the vibrance of the colors and the clarity of it. The same was done for the one with the freedom tower. Overall I feel like I captured the essence of the article appropriately.
