Refining my ideas and technical approach

After doing my last two shoots, the group crits and look at Warhol, I have defined my ideas somewhat more.
I've realized that when I have been shooting, I have been directing my models too much, and the images are too contrived and do not have enough realism. On taking influence from Warhol I am going to simply observe people's reactions to things, which in the case of my work is the dark. So instead of positioning the person in front of the camera, telling them how to look and then photographing them I will change my approach. I am going to use the fashion studio so that only I have full access to the room, and then make it pitch black. From there I am going to lead my models in one by one, stand them in front of the camera and proceed to shine the torch and photograph them. By doing this I will get their honest reaction to the situation, whether that be fear, anxiety, confusion or anything else.

Technically this is going to be difficult to do, and so I have made some changes from the last time I shot. I have bought a new and more powerful torch, which I will attatch to a tripod to keep it steadier than it would be in my hand. I've also realized than I will need the brightest part of the torch in the frame to give enough light to my model. In the past I was worried that the glare from it would look bad, but I am now just going to edit it out in photoshop.
