As i was walking down southbank i came across this man how was setting up for his act. as i stood there isaw more and more people see him stand still and start opening up his box, straight away everyone passing knew what he was about to do so before he even started a small crowd had already formed. this got me thinking. these people had all probably seen many street performers in their lives but still wanted to see this one hoping he was going to do something magical.this fact made me think about how long street performers had actually been entertaining the general public for.they have been a part of every culture probably for as long at we have had streets. The simple act of performing for money or something of sorts.

It is then that i had the idea to start taking pictures of street performers and their viewers. however, this idea soon became just and idea as i started to dig deeper into the idea of society and culture. what actually is it ? and where did ours come from?

After a lot of indecision i finally came to like the photos i took at the market. This is because when shooting i was having a lot of trouble with the mechanics of the camera. There was a mixture of both artificial and natural light in the market which i found very hard to accommodate. This made certain parts of the market very dark but with bright light shining in from different directions.  I was very confused with the balance between shutter speed and aperture that was to be perfect for such an imperfectly light environment. I thought they would all be too under exposed, too exposed or  would have camera shake because of the high ISO i was trying but after a lot of of testing and help i finally got some kind of balance without realizing it, and so a lot of the pictures came out in a way better quality then i had expected.  After sieving through all my pictures to make this GIF i found these pictures which i  think best fit to represent the market in all its flashy glory. I am still yet to add sound to this GIF.

unfortunately this did not go as planed because i had technical difficulties with my recordings of conversations with my subjects and in the end lost the whole lot of them except for one recording i took at the very beginning. i do think that this doesn't give my video the effect i would have liked it to have on the viewer and in all honesty makes the whole video quite confusing. if i were to go back and change anything it would be the recordings i made and i would have definitely been more organised with the locations i chose to interview people in and will make sure the equipment i use is 100% compatible with my computer software. i also think i could of maybe had a bit of age diversity in these images and had the youger generation holding images of their members of the older generation that they think may have influenced them.
