Unsuitable font

The overall impression of this poster is very high class society, and the high priced beautiful and classical elements that follow. This is in no way reflected by the font. It is plain, uninteresting and cheap in appearance. This poster needs a calligraphy or script font that adds more interest and actually represents this out of reach luxury that the poster is reflecting.

Appropriate font?

This font is appropriate for the theme of the movie poster. There is a glowing, mysterious atmosphere created as the text stands out against the darkened background. The font is not too understated or over the top, therefore creating a balanced but distinguished trademark font.

Inspiration

Glamorous, yet sweet and playful, Kate Hudson is a true star. I also respect and feel influenced by her love of her body, without resorting to the lengths many other celebrities have gone to to change themselves. Her sense of style is unique, quirky and ever so chic.

Week 3... SCANNING

During this lesson we explored how scanning 3 different images at different resolutions could effect the quality of our image. We scanned at resolutions of 70, 180 and 300, and determined that images used for a blog are best scanned at 70-80dpi. 300dpi is recommended for commercial printing of magazines and brochures. We also learnt how to use the descreen button to remove the moire pattern in the background of our images, however its not used when scanning real photos, instead magazine images and fabric. We also scanned our DDS images from our illustration class to allow us to add layers of material to the image.

Week 3... first blog

I have finally worked out how to do a blog. I'm trying to decide on an architect, there are so many to choose from! I'm interested so far in Frank Lloyd Wright, of the United States of America and his building Falling Water. This building is intriguing with it geometrical shapes contrasted against the soft flowing water streaming down from the bottom of the structure. Lloyd has also incorperated modern design into the natural environment which would be an interesting concept to influence fashion designs.
