“This assignment is about understanding and interpreting ideas in a metaphorical way.

A metaphor is the representation of a person, place, thing, or idea by using visual language that suggests a particular association or point of similarity. Modern advertising relies heavily on visual metaphors “the high-performance jet fighters of creative communication”, commonly thought as fast powerful and effective. For this mini assignment it is suggested that you use metaphors in your photography. Your intention is to produce images interpreting the theme “Friends for dinner” in your own individual way. Choose your objects/subjects so that you photographs mean something different than the obvious. Remember that simplicity can add strength to your images. Experiment with light and composition in order to reinforce the look of your photos so that you deliver the intended message. Think of a visual metaphor as a way of envisioning your subject.”
