FMP Initial Ideas: Documentation

I feel I would really like to experiment documenting my idea with photography.
I would really like to use a low-tec disposable camera, and look into different effects I can get from using one.

I really like the quality of disposable cameras because it looks more 'real', more grungy, more life like, as if it's really happening now, and it was taken from a blink of an eye.
There is something about digital cameras which just don't have the same authenticity. Too clear, too superficial.




However, the look i am really striving for, specifically inspired by the division of different paths, from the Butterfly Effect theory, is double exposure.
One image on top of another.

I would love love love to do this,
I would create two different stories, and then photograph them onto one image, to join them together.

So there would be story A and story B.
with paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4... and so on...

So in the first image I would double expose A1 and B1... If you understand.

Then the final result would be two contrasting images, I hope this idea would be really beautiful, it translates my idea exactly.

Time to get experimenting...
