For my Goldilocks shoot, I wanted to portray her as a modern day thief as the story implies this. I wanted the image to be quite comical so I dressed the model as Goldilocks with a yellow shirt and added a balaclava and denim waistcoat. To capture the perfect image, I need to catch her in the act of stealing some porridge from the cupboard and/or chairs/bed covers.
I think that this went really well as the images turned out really well, especially with a dark tone due to the night-time lighting conditions that I decided to use. I like the idea of shadows and mystery within each photo as it ensures a huge contrast between the fairytale and the reality of the story.
"Baby Bear, however, had hardly any friends. This was partly because he was rather a bully and liked to win games and arguments. He was a pest too and always getting into mischief. Not far away, lived a fair haired little girl who had a similar nature to Baby Bear, only she was haughty and stuck-up as well, and though Baby Bear often asked her to come and play at his house, she always said no."
This part of the Grimm Brothers story explains that not only was Goldilocks a naughty thief but the Baby Bear was just as bad as her, possibly showing that they deserved the robbery after all as pay-back.
