Last week I shot Liverpool. Yes, it's time to come clean. Myself and 97 others are guilty - we shot Liverpool on Saturday 26th May. But we weren't out in the streets with AK47s or anything like that - no, digital cameras were the order of the day as we took part in Shoot Experience's Shoot Liverpool event, based at the Tate Liverpool.
We set out in teams of 2-4 to follow ten clues on a photographic treasure hunt around the city's waterfront. All the clues were tied in to the (highly appropriate) theme of 'WATER', and each team submitted ten photos as their answers after five hours of creativity, daftness and dressing up.
My team and I did everything from staging a tea-party on the Albert Dock, to making friends with a mannequin at the Mersey Ferries ticket office, and recreating the cover of 'Abbey Road', starring a small pirate who looked suspiciously like my boyfriend.
Here's our best efforts:
The photos from the Liverpool event are being displayed at Liverpool's Open Eye gallery between 5th-9th June 2007. Can't wait to be an exhibited artist!
