Furthering my Ideas

Products which could be used in my beauty shoot: 
- Cologne
- Deodorant
- Shaving Cream
- Moisturiser
- Hand Sanitiser
- Razor
- After Shave Balm
- Nail clippers
- Hand Towel with his initials


In my last shoot (the interior shoot), I kept the image clean and structured in order to relate to Obama. I think this aesthetic is something I should keep consistent throughout all three shoots. Using the briefcase situated on a white background created a very sleek shot. The first two ideas I have had so far do not really match this aesthetic. The flag is very complicated to create, a bit to creative for obama himself and doesnt represent him correctly and I feel that the image would be to cluttered. The second idea of the bathroom has had some complications. I have tried sourcing a bathroom to use to match one which would be similar to that of where Obama lives. However this has been very difficult and in honesty I do not feel comfortable shooting on location by myself with no teacher, because I believe the teacher can help give directions to do with lighting and shadow which would make the shoot more successful.


Idea 3, is something which can relate to my first image, using simple clean lines, placing the products in a rigid structured form. However I need to find a product which somehow could be the briefcase from shoot 1. 


Products that I could use to help assist my shoot and give the idea of a bathroom could be:
- Sink
- Toiletry bag
- Mirrored cupboard
- Shaving mirror
- Vanity unit
- Bath towels


I think when selecting products for my shoot, I should try keep to American brands, to represent someone who is in power over the whole of America.
