Time to meet the young artists who are working on the Impressability project! These portraits below were taken by the DM (digital media) artists. Some of the subjects were shot whilst bouncing on a mini tramp. The jumping motion helped to create animated expressions, that are a departure from the staid expressions that we find in traditional portraiture. The majority of people become extremely self conscious when a camera is pointed in their direction. They immediately visualise the picture the photographer is attempting to take, and try and compensate for what they believe are their flaws. The jumping motion helps to liberate them from this thought process, and returns a modicum of control back to the photographer.
