Project Proposal

I decided to do the contemporary issue - Teenage depression
My photographs will show models looking depressed - and how they are dealing with it. For the images I want to edit them to an extent to create a sort of gloomy, detached feeling when you view them as this is similar to how you feel when you see someone depressed or are depressed yourself.
Alot of teenage depression photos are pretty cliche. There is always just one teenager looking sad and although this is perfectly valid, I dont feel anything from viewing the photographs as they have no emotion involved. Whether it is the models fault or the photographers, I am aiming to avoid this because what is a photograph with no emotion.
The ways the teenagers will be dealing with their depression in my project is smoking, drugs, and alcohol.

Below are example photos of what I do not want to achieve...
