i-D Front Cover

 

Here is the front cover we have decided to use for the magazine. Adding in the I-D theme with only showing one eye and then adding all the other bits of information  to do with the issue. I created the front cover on photoshop as kate created the photography work for the cover. It was to hard to create but was fun making it and testing out different ways it would work. Beens Charli was holding a rose by here eye I decided to add in some more roses in the background and for the caption to be 'id rather have roses on my table than diamonds 'round myneck'. I feel this worked really well and everything came together nicely.

New Fushion

 

These are the photos we did for the fashion fusion which was to syltes mixed together. We decided to use grunge and indie. In the images the girl is wearing a check shirt for the indie style but then also doc martins for the grunge look. The photos were in black and white to start with but when we edited them in photoshop we decided to make them black and white and they looked alot better this way and stood out more. We also changed the lighting of the pictures a bit making some areas darker and some lighter. I enjoyed taking these photos with my group and then finally editing them on photoshop to create what we did.

Evaluation - Stop motion video.

The stop motion task was a bit different to what I have done in the past and didn’t really know what I was doing. As I researched into it more I got a better understanding of what it really was and how it all worked. After making a short test video myself I started to get to grips with it. For the project we had to make our own stop motion video in a group so in our group we decided to create a stop motion video that went to the song that was going to be played in the video which was originally Rihanna – Russian roulette. After playing about with the video we had created we decided that the song didn’t really go with the ‘fashion’ type of video we had made so decided to change the song to ‘Pink – Raise your glass’ which work much better. The main part I did in this project was take the photo of the girls in my group as in the video they would all walk towards the camera one by one showing different styles of clothing then the last few shots them all together. With this song it work really well and came out better than I thought. I didn’t enjoy this project as much as the last but did prefer doing the photography in it so that made it better.

Evaluation - CD Cover

Creating the CD cover was really good and fun to do, I did a lot of research on different bands and CD covers to see how there was layout and to see how they had done it, if they had used graphics of photography of the band or just simple font. All the CD covers where different I first decided I wanted a old English pub as the front cover and inside to be the inside of a pub. After taking some photos and playing around a bit with this I started to not like the idea and preferred some pictures that had been taken in the past which would work well with theme. The photos I chosen was of me, Connor and Joe doing our ‘band identity’ task with the pictures to make ourselves look like I band. As we did look like a band in the pictures this worked really well so I started work on these and see how these would turn out. To find out finally what CD cover type I was going to use I could these create the photos to fit in nicely in the cover and all together they came out really well. I did enjoy to this project as I got to take my photo pictures and edit them how I wanted.
