My final outcome

I wanted to show the process of the making of my final outcome in which will be able to see how it all came together to create my complete exam piece; First I bought two wooden boards in which I then hinged together. From this I then drew out the lettering and painted along the writing. The writing isn't as neat as I wanted it to be but it still has that motherly feel to it, as though a mother had actually wrote it. In between the lettering is where the film will be projected.


I then added the photos of the mothers that I had collected from the people I had videoed and stuck them onto the opposite side to the lettering. I think that having the people photograph their own mothers then it gives each photo more value and it gives a different and sacred perspective that I couldn't have captured if I had taken the photographs myself.



Here are the photos close up:






Here is the video of my family telling you what 'old wives tales' they know and of which have been passed down to them:
