The Brief
Using your photographic solution to inform and inspire, create a hand done poster.
My hand done piece continues my fictional narrative in the form of a comic book cover, expanding on the mystery of the killer and the detectives charged with finding him. A dark mood similar to my photograph is created through a combination of subject and the heavy use of black and white to define form. Colour is used sparingly to highlight importance and guide the viewers eyes through the composition. The typography lends a touch of modernity and firmly asserts itself as a comic book cover.
The Brief
Create an image concept that must physically feature cheese, as well as typography either physically or digitally. Collaborate with a photographer to deepen your concepts and deliver a photographic poster image in landscape format.
My photographic poster shows a grim and moody crime scene. Detectives are on the scene to investigate a gruesome murder in which an innocent life has been grated away. Showcasing my sense of style and humour, I chose to portray the crime scene using personified cheese characters which I hand sculpted. The figures remain playfully simple and expressionless , leaving the lighting to show the mood and emotion. The typography expands on my narrative and helps balance the elements of playfulness and seriousness.
