Book

After my initial given category of blue, I narrowed this down to sky. With the intention of taking photographs of the sky at different times of day and different positions, I hoped to gather a range of colour variations and shape variations in the sky. Here are some of the photographs I took:

In-Design Brief

Vogue. 3 Poster

Vogue- Development

From looking at designers I decided I wanted to include some illustration and make my posters more visual even if just a small section. I did some small doodles of objects to represent the term 'media.' and again, I Scanned them in and tryed them out in different colours.

Vogue- Poster development

Tried the designs out with black, pink and then a mixture of the two. I decided on the mixture of the two, I thought the pink was appropriate to the subject matter and audience of women, although stereostypical, but it also seemed to work well alongside the black.

Don't Panic. Vogue

To get us started with the project we had a concept building session, we were to come up with 30 associated words that we relate to the word Vogue.

From these words we created 30 pictorgrams to represent the words, some proving to be more difficult than others.
Narrowing this down to just five favourites, I looked into size 0 and vanity. The meaning of size 0 and how it portrayed through the media.

From looking at existing illustrators I decided I wanted to create my posters using illustration, something I have no really used before. Also looking at the book 'Hand Job' I wanted to mix this with type and create a busy, informative piece.

Looking through 'Hand Job' I saw many different, unique styles and tried to recreate some myself, I then scanned these in and completed them on photoshop.

Hot Dog fold

We were shown how to produce the hotdog fold in the lesson, ensuring we measured the lines instead of just folding them so the pages lined up when it was folded together. The hotdog fold means we couold produce our 20 books with one single sheet of paper for each, reducing the cost.

We tried out different paper sizes and cutting out different sections of the books to see what vaiations we could come up with.
