Broken up CCTV

I experimented printing them on a larger scale and also printing them on tracing paper, seeing whether I could layer them in order to create a more three dimensional CCTV image. This was not very effective and so I decided to take elements from the disposable images such as the linear structure and transfer this onto some of my other market street scenes. 





When I think of CCTV footage I think of an image on a TV screen that has a slight delay so it breaks up the image, I tried to replicate this in my images and it worked well because it made the street scene more interesting and also highlighted certain people for the viewer to look at and focus on in a busy scene. The varying widths of the lines that broke up the scene and the fact that they vertically break up the image makes it resemble CCTV more closely. I did this with a number of different scenes to create a timeline and act as stills to CCTV footage. 





The one element that I felt wasn't that effective was the colouring from the disposable camera image because it just seemed quite sporadic.
