  > With theme of traffic lights manipulations of traffic signs will create this aesthetic of fear and control  > Gradient overlay not successful > Pixilation of signs more successful in creating digital manipulation and sense of distortion for fear  > More successful manipulation is tiling effect which segments sign into pieces  > Screen layer effect creates this interaction between this broken sign and background, giving digital feel without being too obvious  > Road signs formatting for article text to create that sense of urgency and control throughout in design and for consistency > Interaction between all different layers means transporting that to website will be more difficult in wanting to animate them as well  > Could there be more of a digital feel?? Gives fear and control aesthetic but does it suggest digital?  TITLE   > Outer glow not translated fully after exporting between photoshop and after effects ...

Peer + Audience Feedback

 > After creating video of website navigation recognise there are things that could be done to the site to develop it even further  1 end:  continue, yes, no? graphic  click yes sends back to beginning of website, cyclical of lockdown and romances, click no and it goes black (like screen)?  2 navigation:  could be clearer despite wanting a free journey and experience for viewer, would I really be satisfied with them missing finding any of the articles? AUDIENCE FEEDBACK  LUCY  Love the aesthetic little bit scattered item wise for me but I think that's personal preference The places to click need to be clearer and once your on those items maybe incorporate a link back   Love the speech bubbles and the little touch me guys  I wanna be able to click on boy tears and have those messages where they're all your gorgeous then they get angry and bitchy  Don't love the story of fear font for the text it kinda hurts my brain to read b...

One day I decided to go on a walk round the park (by myself of course). All of a sudden I find myself bumping into an old family friend’s son. This is someone who I have fancied since I was a kid, and admired from a far… We got chatting and ended up having a socially distance convo for about half an hour. FYI - I knew this person had a GF… When I got home and checked my phone, he had slid into my DMs and we started texting. One thing lead to another - he ended up confessing he’s been in love with me for years, he split up with his girlfriend the next day and we also got a private apartment in town where ...

JAMES PHOTOGRPAHY PROJECT INSPIRED BY:  DEREK OVERFIELD  About my work: ​I paint powerful and expressive figures that would feel at home in both the ancient and contemporary world. My style is rooted in the passions of antiquity, while being refreshing and raw in its modernity. My figures are relics from a more heroic time - fragmented and mysterious.  Energy and vitality are dear to me, so I craft works of immediacy that display a balance of precise control and gestural abandon .  Devoid of ornamentation, they are instead simple and spontaneous; minimal, yet compelling.   My work brings with it a bold and heroic presence, a one-of-a-kind and unique experience. >    This type of language would be really good to involve in the newspaper as it reflects the tone and topic of what is happening between the commercial products and the people pictured in the newspaper  Guy Denning  Guy Denning’s  creative manifestations emit an emotion...
