Really like the wide scenes. Look at photojoiners particularly those by Adrian Brannan (see below). The different photos are obvious and he also includes different times of day. Perhaps you could use the Photoshop joiner technique but with images taken of the same place at different times. It might blend the images together.

Good annotation and a clear brief however, insufficient sets of observations for this point in the project. The film photographs are not good enough quality to learn from them. Perhaps continue only in digital and make them black and white if you want to.
Could you continue responding to the work of Winogrand- try shooting from the hip. You could also choose a location such as a waiting room, station etc. Like Paul Graham. Visit this on a past Pho exam page: https://fortismereartdepartment.weebly.com/u4-2016-photography.html
Your brief also talked about posed images- how will you do this?

Leave two other strands and develop Brutalist buildings.
Don't create a response to Empel
Try these with your Brutalist images:
- Britt Bass and Morgan Blake: Morgan’s photos are actually printed on transparencies, and then laid over Britt’s painted canvas. Print your images onto acetate and overlay onto painted canvases / paper.
- Patrick Cornillet: remove sections from the image leaving behind abstract shapes of the original building
- Noemie Goudal: explode a photograph. Cut up one image and separate each different part on a layer of acetate or tracing paper
- Henrique Foster: Flat colour versions of the brutalist buildings: http://abduzeedo.com/idea-zarvos-architecture-posters Combined with the Cornillet response- this would create abstract versions of buildings.
Target Grade: A
Grade for Set Tasks: B+
Thorough analysis at the start- particularly from Radical Eye. Make sure all tasks are thoroughly annotated and you include screen grabs for processes. Include edited enlargements for all tasks.
3 strands?
1) Continue Brutalism follow the map of London documenting the different buildings and also how do they fit with the other architectural buildings around them
2) Rudd van empel response to his work and looking at the idea of creating portraits of people using lots of lod and existing photographs
