Image 2

Page 9 was completed in the same way as Page 8, however, I think the images are more successful. Image 3 shows the figure filled with wires and other components, all of a sudden he looks more like a robot. I think i will change the rest of the figures to look like this one.

Image 1 I have layered the back of a speaker cone over the figure. It makes the image more abstract, but also, I feel, adds to the industrial feel all the more. I will consider dropping in more of these types of images throughout the book from now on.

Page 8

This is the initial image for the concertina pull out page. I am really pleased with how it turned out so far, though I think there needs to be more black at the bottom of the image.

So far it looks pretty close to what I had intended. I will however, go into more detail on my second post about Page 9.

Work in Progress with Derek

Today was a short work in progress, we briefly discussed the direction my project was going in, everything seemed positive.

More Collage

I felt that my previous collages had been successful so i set about creating some more. This time I didn't paint into them, I wanted to keep the pieces seperate so I could potentially use different sections and different techniques viw photoshop. As mentioned before I have created a set of tones to help contrast images, it will be interesting to see how they come out!

Fourth Mock up book / plan

Another story board. I edited some of the pages and re-worked my text. This is my fourth mock up book now, I hope that it will be one of the last until I finish this project!

Week 11 Summary

This week I created a lot of textures. Pete made me aware in my tutorial that it was time to really start putting everything together. I have to say though i am happy that all components are complete and finished ready to drop into the final book!

Tutorial with Pete

Pete gave me an artist too look at, and helped me make the final decision to use collage for my book. Though I had enjoyed some of the other production methods I had used througout the project, we felt that using my photographs was the best way forward.
