More Experiments.

Here is another example of my experiments for the day.

Recently I came around to buying myself CS6 Creative Suite, after many, many and many more free trials I realised it was about time to purchase the real deal.

I have always wanted to experiment more with digital illustration and, with nothing to do for the day I spent a few hours doing so - playing around with digital illustration and photo manipulation on a few of my own images. Getting to grips with the software beyond my usual perimeters alongside learning how to adapt to my new Wacom tablet (the first I have ever used). Nothing to impressive here, but I'm sure with practise and by incorporating my own hand drawn illustrations I can begin to develop.

Shoot in Layout

In response to my previous post, I have finally got all my final edits into layout. I have aimed my outcome for AnOther magazine, so have recreated their layout and style. I love how simple AnOther is, it reduces fuss and distraction and allows for focus on the actual content:

Final Shoot

Yesterday I did my final shoot for my latest university project. There isn't much to say about it really, it was a fairly stressful time, I managed to get a model, MUA and hairstylist in the last hour of the last day whilst lots of money was borrowed and spent, it all came together with an amazing team! I styled directed and photographed the entire shoot with bondage/tailored inspiration all about the textures and light. Now all I need to do is finish the edits and put them in magazine layout (with a title I cannot think of!) which will follow soon. As for now, here are some of the shots I am thinking of using...
