Intentions for the photos

Easy Money - Photography Pictures

The intention for this photo is to show the main protagonists meeting up to pull the heist. The picture enforces to the viewer that they are all a team, hence all wearing nearly identical shades.

In this photo, one of the characters is looking at his phone. He is receiving a message on where to meet to pull of a dangerous robbery. The small smirk on his face suggests anticipation. The bag strapped around him implies that he came prepared.

This is the exterior of the bank, and I wanted the entrance to look grand. Being a long shot, we can see the protagonists small, showing the scale of the heist. It could also show how intimidating the bank could be. There is a slight vignette added which adds a cinematic effect.

This photo is used to establish a character. The brick wall behind him shows that he is in an urban environment. The blank expression on this face suggests seriousness and concentration  The sunglasses suggests that he is hiding his identity.

This photo shows that the robbers are a team, as seen in their triangle formation. From this, the viewer can identify who is the leader. The gate to the bank in the background shows that the protagonists are getting close to the bank. The architecture suggests a grand entrance.

This photo shows a group of boys playing football on a street. since the photo is in black and white, it shows the bleakness of the environment. This is a full frame, showing the scale of the street and how small the kids are. Because the viewer knows the photo was taken during WW2, the kids are vulnerable to an attack. Hardy could be implying that war is like a children's game.

This photo was taken during the London Blitz in WW2. This image shows houses bombed due to the Blitz bombing. The subjects of the image, the young girl and the elderly man, are helping each over out, which shows how different people were effected by the Blitz. These are ordinary, everyday people not soldiers being the victims to the attack The black and white adds a bleakness and isolation. The background, which is houses in ruins, shows the scale of the destruction.

This photo demonstrates Hardy's use of shadows. Here, a silhouetted couple are holding hands compassionately while a theater is glowing in the background. This glow adds to a romantic feel as if holding hands signifies a start of a relationship The sign saying "Grandma" could suggest that love can last forever, even after the pair are diseased.
