"Beauty in the Mundane" Development II

More experiments with a different image, a halftone of one of my pictures of "Creatures". Will want to experiment it with Risograph and possibly play a bit more with the half tone to make the image more visible. I'm pleased with it non the less.

Collage

Using one of my collages, i digitally manipulated the image to form a glitched effect. I made sure to keep the key colours (from the eye balls) as part of the effect. I enjoyed this as it added more to the piece

GCU Fashion Showcase.

Couple of weeks ago i was asked by Suzanne if I would be up for shooting some images for the advertising material for the GCU Fashion Showcase.

This event is showcasing the students that have been taking part in creating a magazine, in collaboration with Gant, and were awarded prizes for certain for creative ideas and methods in producing a slick and professional appearance in line with Gants image.

The art director @illbeyourmirror wanted to have a Lillac Hue over the images and wanted a very soft and low contrast style image. The poses where to be strong and bold, keeping with very abstract movements and postures.

Starting off at the shoot we set up two sets at either end of the studio, since we were lucky enough to have it all to ourselves. One being natural light and the other being artificial. The artificial background had a soft pink background on it which did work but wasn't giving them the desired effect that they were looking for. Then trying the natural light set up and finding that it seemed to work a lot better and gave a far more soft contrast feel whilst still keeping the detail in the model and the clothing. Then in post, making a Hue Preset so that i could adjust the saturation on the preset and apply it to all the images then tweak it based on the outfit. 

Sticking to a low aperture and trying not to bump the iso too high, looked at bouncing some light into the set using some of the white covered boards. This gave me a softer light and lended to the low contrast, soft feeling they where looking for. Apart from that, the shoot was very fun and was clean and professionally done.  

I really enjoyed this shoot. Everyone was highly professional and were giving clear concise orders on what they where looking for and how they wanted the end product to be. 

(Only got used for the pamphlet inside the showcase, was expecting them to get used else were, although must have been mistaken.)

Workshop Brief Collages Response

I made 2 diferent collages using past work i had put away: Images of faces doing expressions, used in the past for portrait unit; paper with marks of printing i've kept for other past works as well.

My intention was to create a composition with these, which i experimented before compromising to a definite one.

I then decided to apply some stitching, inspired by Annegret Soltau, but in a diferent way that would work and provoke impact within my collage.

The hand of this one was accidental, i had it cut out already but was distracted doing some more research and when i looked down, i had it on top of my collage and i felt like it worked really well! Happy accidents!

Digital Manipulation: i decide to montage the 2 different collages to create the digital, where i overlaid and played about with diferent settings.
