Evaluation

EVALUATION

In this assignment we were asked to create a magazine cover and contents for an i-D Magazine project.

I really enjoyed this task as we were given a letter to use as the topic. I was given 'Q' which in my first and successful attempt at presenting a cover involved a rubber duck which covered the models eye which represented the word 'Quack'. I used colour splash to highlight the duck to make it stand out. I found this to be a very enjoyable piece of work to edit and present.
Unfortunately someone else used my idea in their work later on which led me to change my word.
I then chose 'Quality' which represented 'Quality Taylor Guitars'.
In preparation for this task I researched quite a few artists to find inspiration and techniques. I found many covers which helped greatly with how I wanted to present mine.
I really liked the colour task as we all put our ideas together to create body sculptures and I believe we were somewhat successful. Henrik Adamsen was my full inspiration for my final cover image, he creates delicate yet elegant work and I have admired his unique photo's. He is an artist that I have kept note of and followed within my work not only in this project but in past work.

Overall, I have enjoyed each and every moment of this i-D task and have learnt new things along the way which have improved my understanding in the subject. I believe that although it was a tricky task and I had hit some bumps along the way that I have overcome them well and created some nice work for the magazine.
