Double page spread - Scamps

                   

Double Page spread (Magazine Research)

After carefully cutting and collecting images and typefaces from various magazines which have inspired me in designing my front cover and double page spread, I created a mood board which contains different typefaces as well as different ways of representation models and fashion/accessories.

(FURTHER RESEARCH) These are some images of the double page spreads in the magazine 'Company'.. I really liked the fonts and graphic design used but only came across the magazine whilst doing further investigation after designing my front cover. However I am hoping to use techniques used when designing my double page spread. 

  I browsed Pinterest for double page spreads in magazines to give me some inspiration for the lay out of my own double page design.

My Magazine (Mock)

                     My Final Magazine Front Cover! ( and below corrected masthead!)

    For the subheading 'Share your embarrassing moments' I used an image I had taken of my friend Jasmine with a embarrassed cheeky facial expression, which worked in well with the subheading 'embarrassing moments' Again to fit in with the purple pink colour scheme I changed the hue on Jasmines Penguin Purse and Nail varnish.

 Seen below is how I put it all together.. I cut Amy out on photoshop, used a drawing that I had already designed, over lapping the pattern and changing the hue to make it 'fit' in with Amys Purple hair and Purple dress. From then I added my hand made header along with subheadings and a range of typfaces some hand made and some found on 'dafont.

(Here I made a big mistake of missing out the 'P' in exPose' which was a silly mistake, However this is corrected on my final piece! (:

 I wrote and measured the Word 'EXPOSE' and then cut it out using a craft knife, and then sprayed the shapes and letters. (seen below)

Final rough draft for magazine magazine front cover ( Images + editing above to support)

  Another potential Magazine cover  ( rough draft - scamp) and Photographed image.

Not one of my best drawings! But Large Scamp draft of a potential front cover and photographed image of my friend Amy.

Contact sheet ( Possible front cover images)

6 out of 16 of my images taken were taken without the flash, and therefore I was not keen on using them for my final as it also effected the quality of the image.

Over all I was undeceive over Image 5-6-8 (shown in rought drafts above) However Finally I have decided to use Image 8 as Amy's facial expression enhances and shows of her piercings and unique style.

On the left I created a Mindmap to give me inspiration into choosing a name for a magazine, Eventually I came up with the Masthead 'EXPOSE'.

Parody - Parisian Fame (Mucha)

This is my final Parody piece.

As you can see from the stages below, Firstly I sketched out the background and then edited/coloured and put it together in photoshop.

I then Took a picture of my friend Amy's Tattoo who looks a lot like the female ' Sarah bernhardt' in the original piece, after colour and editing these together with a textured effect.
I flipped the image, so that it would match the oringinal piece, However I prefer the unflipped image. 

I then took a picture of my friend Amy's tattoo, and then selected the face and edited it on photoshop, in doing this I added another layer and by lowering the opacity coloured it.

Here I firstly coloured the bottom layer as accurate as possible and then (above)n over layer the central piece, I then added a layer giving the background a textured effect. 

 Once I'd scanned them and placed them in photoshop, I then used 'Levels' to contrast the black and white making it easier to colour when editing.

Vector Portrait (Rihanna)

My vector portrait was mainly an experimentation which I could of initially used for my final piece. If I had more time to focus on the vector portrait I would have more carefully taken time in shading and tones, making it look more realistic.

     Above shows the lines I have drawn ready to fill adding tone.

Then using the pen tool I drew over the image (to be filled later)

 For my vector portrait I chose the very famous female R&B artists Rihanna. The reason I chose Rihanna is is because of the range in her skin tone. Using the eyedropper I selected the darkest and lightest tones in her hair and the lightest and darkest tones on her face. I then took a green tone from her eyes and a pink tone from her lips to give a contrast of different colours.

Stencil Spray - Cara Delevingne - Scanning/Photoshop/Final

Final Stencil Spray.

I then made ink splodges,scanned them in coloured them and layered them to get an ink splattered effect.Once I'd removed the white space and background from my image using photoshop I then ctrl+c and shift backspace, this therefore changed the black stencil spray to my desired colour.

My final 3 stencil sprays of Cara Delevingne.
