RESEARCH
RALPH EUGENE MEATYARD
was an American photographer. His most famous works involved masks, worn by posing people, or ordinary objects. His best known images were populated with dolls and masks, with family, friends and neighbors pictured in abandoned buildings or in ordinary suburban backyards.He was regarded by his peers as among the most original and disturbing imagery ever created with a camera. Meatyard created a mode of "No-Focus" imagery that was distinctly his own. "No-Focus" images ran entirely counter to any association of camera art with objective realism and opened a new sense of creative freedom in his art. His work sprang from the beauty of ideas rather than ideas of the beautiful. Meatyard haunted the world of inner experience, continually posing unsettling questions about our emotional realities through his pictures.

INITIAL IDEA
- FILM
- PHOTOGRAPHY
- EDITORIAL MAGAZINE LAYOUT
My initial idea is to produce a short film with photography & incorporate them both in an editorial magazine layout describing the film in detail.
My film is going to be about a girl with split personalities, who is tortured by her own mind. Two personalities routinely take control of the individual's behavior each with its own pattern of perceiving and interacting with the environment, with an associated memory loss that goes beyond normal forgetfulness. These identitys are taken on by the interaction of overwhelming stress, traumatic antecedents, insufficient childhood nurturing, and an innate ability to dissociate memories or experiences from consciousness.
