Introduction

This brief is a live brief in corrolation with an exhibition being held at the QUAD Derby by the Format International Photography Festival. Format have given their exhibitors the word 'evidence' to base their work on. They are looking for photographers to study and produce work that may strengthen or weaken the known saying "the camera never lies."

Manipulated images often question the truth of this quote by create unseen subjects or subjects of myth. However some photographers use their skills and equipment to practice this as documentative photography. This is truth of that phrase to its fullest. 

We take pictures constantly to document our lives and they are very personal to us; however others won't understand it the way that we do. This is a form of evidence of our lives.

To pass this unit I will have to describe and explain location photographies characteristics. Then practice what I have researched and reflect on how effective this was to my research and to the brief. Finally I will have to review all of my work critically to improve my own practice and results.
