Rhianna Book 2

> wants two publications for two different designers

> different designer photographs have similar styling and tone, you can feel it's done by same photographer

> But slight differences that could be translated into two books, which could be bound together into a package 

> Marius Malon: brighter, more colourful, lighter tone, romantic 


> Aurelie Fontan: earthy, futuristic, red + purple tones

> Few darker tone images in Malon series however which creates inconsistency in tone if keeping designers' photos separate




RESEARCH 

> How should the aesthetic respond to these themes I see in the photography?


Two sides of a future distant mother earth? Alien mother earth? What happens when mother earth takes back control? 

This whole project is directed and made by women, from the fashion designers to the models, photographer and graphic designer. This female power radiates from the images and could be reflected in the tone and graphic direction of the publications. 

Overall themes: women (ask photographer for basis behind images and her research) 

Book 1: Romanticism, love, paradise, life, passion 

Book 2: Powerful force, dark, futurism, sci-fi, mother earth, tribal, spiritual 


  1. Mother Earth(Noun)

    The personification of Earth and its biosphere; Mother Nature. Based upon either goddesses of the earth and nature, Gaia, Rhea &/or Demeter.

  2. Mother Earth(Noun)

    The goddess of earth in various cultures.

“We knew we wanted to do something illustrative or collage-based and also very dreamy,” Michelle tells It’s Nice That on the segment which, in one word, can only be described as playful. “Illustration has the potential to bring its own strong sense of storytelling to any brief,” continues Johannes, “and as ubiquitous as it is in editorial formats, we felt it was rarely used to its full potential within fashion editorials.”



> In elevating the bright swipes of colour in the Malon photos this experimental illustration style could be really interesting
> Feels futuristic but almost retro as well

 To Complete Website: > Name Love.jpeg created into artwork for starting page  > Lydia Article  > Joely Article  LYDIA + JOELY COLLAGE PIECES FOR ARTICLES  So - During lockdown 0.1, I found myself happily single and most definitely enjoying a little bit of me time… I was adamant that nobody was going to distract me from this intense period of isolation. 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 ...

Identity EVALUATION

Alike to GAIA EXRTH, it was disappointing not being able to complete the brief within the timescale set out. I recognise that I like working a lot on passion projects and pushing them further and further, to the point that perhaps the goals I set are unrealistic or I spend too long on one level/area of the project. In this case this was a research brief and I set out to spend a lot of time doing research and testing ideas. I found this a more difficult brief to do within the covid landscape and felt less inspired, as I wanted to go out into the world and look at things, ask people, visit places and so on. This meant this project took a back seat and by the end of the year revisiting it so late on meant there was no time to fulfil the visions I had for the project. It's exciting however to have so many projects I'm interested in to be continuing after uni as it means I can keep the momentum up of designing and producing more ideas and more work. The overall concept of this inter...
