Craft: I used a GE 12.2 mp camera with and without flash to take various pictures of toys from Toys R Us. I tried to get straight forward angles on toys in packages for sake of editing. I did my best to get shots with and without the light reflecting off of the package. Concept: I had several different ideas going through my head, so I was taking pictures of a little bit of everything. I had two main themes with the images above; a very morbid easy bake oven centered around WWII, and the idea of an obese Barbie. I took pictures of the various easy bake accessories so that I could cumulate them into the final WWII easy bake set. I intended on doing the packaging for all of my ideas, rather than the product itself.
Composition: I was aiming for simplicity. I tried to get the plainest packaging for all of the images I shot so that the message wasn't buried. Should I select the WWII route, I'm going to alter the packaging to convey a war theme. The children on the boxes will have German soldier attributes applied to them and the baking accessories will be Jewish themed. I intend on photographing some cookie cutters and reshaping them. Should I select Barbie, I'm going to thicken her up and place her back into her original box and title it "Barbie - Obese." I may theme the box, I've not decided yet.
