A table centre piece that acts as a camera to capture candid moments around the dinner table.

A short summary of CAPTURED

I will be making a table centre piece camera out of bone china ceramic and showing its concept through a lovely book as my final outcome. I will be raising money to ensure that I can make both of these to the best of my abilities as I believe that this product has a lot of potential. I would like to be able to demonstrate the story behind this product through a physical object and a book to accompany it.

Who are you?

I am a Product and Furniture Design student in my final year and I have a passion for photography and capturing moments with family and friends that people can look back on.

MY story

I will be producing this product to demonstrate my idea. I will be using materials that are appropriate to show the lovely lighting features (ceramic and glass) to create an ambience around the dinner table. I love the idea of capturing memories but not having to step out of the moment by looking through phones to take pictures. I have seen many special moments that people are not 100% enjoying because they are so focused on capturing good pictures or videos. 

Captured aims to ensure that people live life in the moment but also allows them to have captures of the memories that are special to them. This project is important to me as I love being a friend who takes candid pictures of people, but I find myself not entirely living in the moment, and I can see this problem in other people, too. Any donation will help me move closer to producing this product and creating a book that demonstrates the lovely memories it would bring people. I hope to bring this product to life and to celebrate the idea that I am proud of.
