Collages

In one of our lesson we made a collage of millions of images from magazines and we had to make it refer to the title design against fur. We were given magazines and newspaper articles etc to cut up and manipulate a picture in our own way to do with the subject of our project (fur Cruelty) I myself also used a few images from the internet to do my design, this is what I came up with in the end for the collage. 








As you can see I have cut up mainly different letters from different magazines to make a effect and make it stand out so it is less dull and more unique. I used internet to get a picture of a skin coat and a tiger, I then printed it out and cutted the images then montaged them together so it looks like the tiger is wearing a human suit. This is to enphase Cruelty to animals as it shows a question or meaning to the image which is 'Would It be cruel if it was the other way around?' Anyway after doing this image I then put it into the scanner and uploaded the image to the computer, using the computer I opened up a program called Photoshop and used it to manipulate the image, I changed the saturation/ hue to give it more of a negative colourful effect which i then leveled. This is what i came up with.






The effects I made made my design look a bit more unique and more sort of funky and creative. I like this design alot as it looks a llittle ike the atrtist work of David Carson. The colours fit nicely together and the tiger with the green glow really stands out and contrasts the image itself. I then took this image further and started to put it on a white t shirt design template to see what it looks like on the t shirt and if it stands out as clear as i say it does as the collage poster.



As you can see there are two designs I have looked at on the t shirt. The first one is a little logo like Ralph Lauren or Armani but instead of it being a Symbol it is a image. I looked at this to see if it worked and to be honest i dislike it quite alot as you cannot see the image very well or the words printed on it. However the 2nd design looks much better than the first as you can see the image clearly on the back and it stands out if i was to experement with this further i believe i will change the colour of the t shirt to black as it would really contrast with the saturated colours and hue of my collage image i made.
