Document Project

My plan for documenting a night of myself consuming a decent amount of alcohol, and slowly descending into a drunken stupor seemed to pan out for my Document Project. The shots of each drink consumed led to ultimately finding my bed as a safe haven from a long night.

In documenting each alcoholic drink or shot that I took, I attempted to keep the same general frame for the photos, with a few unexpected exceptions. Most shots were "in-action," with each drink being visibly consumed.

The Document Project culminated in a few essential editing choices. With the low-lit situations I was often in, brightness and contrast levels were carefully monitored. No photos needed to be cropped, but they were arranged in a "contact sheet" format, with a sizable amount of white space separating each photo. The order of the drinks, then, can be "read" from left to right.

The final version, seen below, can also be viewed in various sizes on my Flickr page here.
