After reading the brief I began to come up with potential themes and ideas that I could use for my idea. Coming up with an idea that would work well was a struggle at first as ideally I needed to have the same theme that wasn't going to be overly boring and plain The two ideas that I first thought of were to use the inside of a garage and an industrial estate, my other idea was of parks around Seaford.
During a class discussion we talked about suitable locations and looked at previous examples to help us when it came to coming up with our own idea. I found this useful as it made me think whether the two ideas that I thought of would work, especially when it came to stitching the images together in Photoshop.
What I plan to do now is research panoramic photography and look at examples of other people's work with the same type of theme and also to start experimenting by taking photos of both my ideas and then stitch them together in Photoshop to see if either of them worked and what problems I would face and see which theme would work the best.

Project One: Creating Panoramas for the Web
Brief
"You will produce at least two cylindrical panoramas for web distribution using a camera, Photoshop and some given HTML/CSS/jQuery code.
You should take all the photographs yourself in two or more locations to make at least two combined images (long shaped images) which will be constructed in Photoshop.
You may, if it helps you, form a vague narrative or theme between the images and the following is a list of suggestions:
- Chase or Follow
- Scene of a Crime
- Tourist Guide
- Day in a Life
- Sense of Location
You will save the stitched images as .jpgs at appropriate sizes and proportions for bringing into the html model for cylindrical panoramic interactivity."
This is the brief that I was given for the first project, it is to produce at least two cylindrical panoramas. These will be made using a camera and then going on to edit the images by stitching them together using Photoshop. Alongside the pictures I need to make a blog, which will show my research into panoramic photography and interactive panoramas, the progress of my project and any ideas that I have. The deadline for this project is Tuesday 18th October.
