Draft of Graphic Design Project

Hello! 

For my Graphic Design Project I chose to put together photos emphasizing my unique fashion from some of my favorite nights! There are three categories I want to cover in my final style project: music concerts, formals and Friday night outfits. In addition, I wanted to play with black & white photos and add words, text and other images in bright colors for the final. The photos I collected were all from my camera roll and for my final I will collect more photos from websites like Flickr. In my draft, I have no color at the moment because I am unsure of how I want to incorporate it. I got the idea of black & white photos with pops of color from magazines. In the past, I have seen magazine photos in black & white with titles or text in bright red and my eye was intrigued. I decided I wanted to try this type of art and see how well it could work with fashion photos. 

The process for creating my project was a little difficult. I first had to think of a fashion idea and how I wanted to express my favorite looks. I started going through my camera roll and noticed all of my favorite outfits came from an eventful night, and that is how I chose my topic: fun night out outfits. 

For the photos in my project I had to cut out each of the backgrounds in order for them to look cleaner and more polished. I then had to fit them all together so they lined up nicely. I used lots of layers and will continue to add more with text and pops of color. Some technical issues I faced were creating a colored textbox and fitting all of the photos in one space. I will be watching more tutorials in the future to ensure my final project looks the way I want it. Enjoy!
