My Subject

My subject sat in a chair reading a handful of papers. His body was relaxed but he was holding tightly to the pages in his hands. One of his legs was crossed and his bag was under his legs, right in front of the chair he was sitting in. He was of average size wearing a jacket, sweater, and jeans.
For the most part he kept to himself, not interacting with anyone else in the room. He did not move or speak much during my period of observation. All he focused on was his papers and the information contained on them. He wasn't distracted by any of the filming or talking going on around him.
At first glance the subject didn't seem very interesting because of a lack of interaction and motion. However after taking note of his more subtle movements and determination to read despite the action going on around him he became more interesting. He was very dedicated to finishing his reading so the papers he had must have been very important to him.
