Up until now I have done alot of experimenting to get to this stage. The background image is the product of a photo I took which was heavily edited with a number of artistic filters and changes to the colour settings. The main image was cropped from the image bellow, I pixelated it and added a motion blur which makes the image seem a bit distorted. With the combination of the background and the main image I wanted to connote drug use. In the Pbrnb genre drugs are a very significant topic and artists often portray their experiences when intoxicated through their lyrics. The cliche LSD type effect I used for the background is one of the most well known connotations for drug use and feelings of euphoria. The contents page is far from finished and after some feedback i'm going to make the main body of text smaller.
Must have much more explanation and screen grabs of the progress of this. It also needs to have a smaller font for the main body of text
ReplyDeleteThe effects on the contents page text is really cool as it matches the background image. Creating a theme throughout the magazine.
