Jesse Marlow Melbourne




Looking at the images above have helped me gain more ideas on ways to develop the use of shadows from shadows of subjects or just a way of showing my presence. In a way I could use subjects shadows into a graffiti use like bansky maybe, this could make bold scenes as an illustration form mixed with the real. 

His way of composing a shot is that some scenes he'll work by shooting variations of  angles, whereas some it'll be a single shot. He will often see things from a car when he's travelling somewhere and make notes of locations and lighting situations and return a later date when the light is brighter or when there is people around.

Jesse has found inspiration through architecture, design and the Australian painter on Jeffrey Smart and Howard Arkley. 

Jesse's biggest inspirational idea came when he found himself with a broken arm which lead him having a sling and not being able to take photos for a couple of weeks and started seeing people with similar situations in the streets. Him seeing people continually doing daily routines despite their injury inspired him into a quick idea developing into a project "The Wounded".
