I have not enjoyed keeping it at all. I have found that it is so easy to slip behind with it and I have often put it off for other parts of the project. I wish I had started the reflective journal as a written document as I would have found it is easier to work this way. I do not need to have the internet, I would not have problems uploading work and the order would not be in a backwards order to read. I have found it difficult to document the work reflectively rather than descriptively and sometimes I have found that I am talking in a chatty language, but because this is the writing style of a blog.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Although I created a Tumblr account to work on I found that this was not needed once I had created my own trend forecasts. I feel that I should have continued to document in this but found that was not finding it useful and did not have the extra time to do it. If I had longer for this project I would like to continue working on the Tumblr and make it into a virtual reference for the consumer.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have also found it difficult to find a balance between meeting the trend product and calendar outcomes. It would be easy for me to carry out one or the other, but combining them together and finding a balance between both has been challenging. Until I added in the mood boards into my calendar I feel that the trend aspect was lacking some, but when this was added in I feel it really benefited and has resulted in me being able to create a specialist product.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have found that the written work for this project has been way more difficult than expected. Being reflective and not warbling is something that I feel I still need to perfect.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When writing my evaluation I found that in order to cover everything that I wanted to say it meant that I was way over the word limit. I found that the evaluation was easy to write as I had structured it and made sure that I covered all the guidelines however I found it more difficult to cut out sections once it was written. In order to make sure that the evaluation sounded to the best it could be I got 3 people to proof read it once I felt I had cut down enough. It was still at 2000 words but I felt I was not able to cut it down any further on my own. Once I had made the amendments to what each person said I then went to show my lecturer and see what they thought. They were most helpful as they showed me parts that I no longer needed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I then went back and amended what my lecturer had said and got it down to the right word count.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that communicating with my lecturers for this project has been a huge help and I have always made sure I attended every possible opportunity. By doing this it has also meant that I have been able to keep on track with the project as I made sure I always had new work to show them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After adding up the overall budget for this project I am shocked to say that it has totalled <u><b><span style="font-size: large;">£780.37</span></b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a lot more than what I had expected and planned for. The main aspect that pushed up the price was the cost of models. I realised that in order to have good models I needed to look further afield and pay for their time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel there is still parts of the project that could be improved. The blog being the main issue. As I have not enjoyed writing it I feel that I have not put my all into it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I believe I have met every one of the learning out comes for this project and as I have been working my way through the project I have ensured that I have had this list to refer to. I also believe I have met the proposals aims. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Along every stage of this reflective journal I have tried to link back the relevance of the project to industry. I feel the biggest part where I have reflected upon this is when I have been discussing the trend aspect of the project. Trend forecasting is often used within the fashion industry as it keeps fashion moving forward and keeps consumers interested. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also believe I have been very critical and judgemental about my project. With every image I have critically evaluated what works well and what doesn't, what could be improved and done differently next time, how it links to the trends and mood boards, and its relevance to the consumer and industry. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I have designed every aspect of this project myself I feel I have been very independent in my learning. I have had to adapt to changes and problems that have occurred but I have managed to find a solution. My biggest learning curve which I have learnt independently is my post production skills. I now feel confident that I could re touch an image myself and not need assistance. I believe this is an ongoing subject but my speed of which I retouch is a lot quicker. I believe I have used my initiative many times during the project. I have seized every opportunity to shoot in the studio with a photographer and I have made full use of the library time to sit and work quietly away from all distractions. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have been innovative with using products which I have never used before in creating my designs. For example I constructed a beaded fringe from an array of products and produced a stunning piece which transforms one of my images. I also created a hair piece out wire and hair which is something I am proud to achieve. I have used products which are not normally used on the skin such as paint and gold leaf and created designs which are unique and show my skill. Lastly I have picked up on skills which have been learnt from the demonstration with Alex Box. Without her showing me how to create slick flat eyebrows which can then be erased, I do not think my designs would have looked the same as I used the process in many of my designs. This is something which I will continue to use when working out in industry.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel I have fully demonstrated that I have a thorough and full understanding of trends by the fact I have researched and referenced them on websites such as WGSN and Fashion Snoops, and then gone on to create my own three forecasts. I have also researched in books on how to create a professional trend outcome. I believe they are high standard forecasts that could go on to be used by all different industry's. By creating 15 different beauty shots for this calendar I believe I have showcased a range of different styling conventions. I have tried to vary each image to show something different as well as relating it back to each trend. This has ranged from a perfect lip, to wig application, from creating hair pieces to applying different products on the skin.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I met many problems with this project along away I have had to find many solutions. With regards to styling I have created hair pieces for the August look as the own hair was not thick enough. I have had to re-shoot several times in order to get the standard I was after. I have had to adapt on shoots when time has not been on my side or when the models hair has been different to what was expected and I have had to change my design. I have also had to change photographers several times in order to get my images completed and to a high standard. I feel I have created an innovative project which has not been created by anyone else. I wanted to create a product that is not already on the market but still important in peoples lives. </span></div>

I have tried to use different products and materials to create new and interesting ideas. I have always ensured that my working practise is kept professional by always ensuring my make up kit is packed the night before to relieve the pressure of stress. I have always ensured that I have clean brushes and am on time and have time to set up. And I have always ensured that when working on a shoot I have a mood board to refer to so I know what I am doing and so does the model and photographer. I have ensured that I took along reference images as well to help show the photographer and model what I want from the shoot. And lastly, I took advice from a lecturer to take my laptop to shoots to ensure that I can see the images straight away and make any amendments to the images if needed. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I believe I have strongly met the 'effectively utilising IT systems and software' as proved in my re edits of images. Although I did not edit all of the images for the calendar I knew what I wanted done and if it was not achieved I would go back and change them myself. I also constructed the entire layout of the calendar myself and made sure it was ready to print. With regards to communicating I feel I have been successful in this by constantly showing lecturers my work for feedback, getting peers to review my work and get different opinions on it in order to improve. I have also made sure that I am always prepared with mood boards and reference images to show the tutors, photographers and models what I want to achieve. By doing this it allows everyone to know what is needed and they can help me create it. I have also ensured that model release forms are completed as I feel this is professional and would be done whilst in industry, so why not do it for this project. I have ensured with all my models that there is good communication. I have always fully briefed them of the shoot before hand and told them what and how to come to the shoot. I have also made sure that I always have a contact number so that if there are any changes that they or i need to be aware of then it can be done. This was useful on several occasions when models have been late or I have had to delay my photographer. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I am extremely happy and pleased with this project. I have created a piece that I am really proud to show people and have the satisfaction that I designed every aspect of it. I have learnt so much from this project, whether it is make up skills ( the eyebrow technique shown by Alex Box), the IT and post production skills have developed vastly and the confidence that I can do all aspects of a photo shoot. Having problems with other professionals and industry has made me realise that if the situation happened again in the future I would know exactly how to handle it and I would have the confidence to do it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel I have consistently been professional whether dealing with agencies, models or photographers or creating compelling new trend forecasts. I believe that with the aid of feedback it has improved my overall out come and this has also helped me to keep a efficient time schedule. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel there is so much I can take from this project, the main thing being confidence. Confidence in my own skill, confidence in communicating with other professionals and confidence that I could do something like this again! I have also met so many lovely people and professionals along the journey and I will continue to keep in contact with them and hope to work with them in the future. </span><br />

I also picked up the demo calendar which I had left with them to use as a reference on how to print and bind it. From first glance the calendar looked amazing. Before I was going to commit to them printing all of the calendars I wanted to fully scour the calendar and see whether there were any faults or anything that needed altering. I mentioned that if I was happy I would call up the following morning and ask for them to print the rest. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After going through the calendar properly there were no faults with the printing and nothing that needed to be changed. The only query I had was that the hole punch was very close to the writing on one of my pages. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that because I showed my initiative and provided the printers with an calendar similar to the layout I was after they did not have any problems with printing and putting the publication together. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I phoned them back up the next morning and confirmed that I would like another 10 copies of the calendar printed. I also mentioned about the hole punch being near to my writing and they mentioned that they would move the file up a couple of millimetres to ensure that they would not cut through the writing. I was very impressed with what they had done so far and what they were willing to do. They assured me that the prints would be done by Thursday, which set me back as I could not return to University for another few days, but it meant that I was able to get the prints which I wanted. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that I dealt with the printers on a professional level and communicated clearly what I wanted. Because of this I feel they have been able to achieve exactly what I was after. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the mean time I knew that I needed to be catching up with University work. As my Dad works at Aston University, he took me to work with him and let me work within the University. This way I could catch up with this blog and my other project. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Friday 27th April:</u> I have now picked up the rest of the calendars and am extremely impressed with the prints and the service I received. On collection I realised that each calendar had been carefully individually wrapped which was a nice finishing touch. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I am very happy with the outcome of the calendar. It is what i envisioned and is the right size. I am pleased that I changed the layout and included the moodboards. I am also pleased that I changed the colour of the calendar to grey as it make the calendar look more refined and like there has been more thought put into it. I have realised the economies of scale, the more I ordered the price of the calendar came down. This would be an idea when putting in place in retailers. The more they buy the lower they would be able to price it at for consumers.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that the best parts to my calendar are of course my images, I am pleased with all of them and think that they all fit together and link to its own trend and moodboard. I am also very pleased that I created the mood boards as I was going along. I was not intending on using them in the final outcome but I am pleased that I did as I feel it improves the calendar and makes it into more of a trend product</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The only part where I am doubtful is with meeting the learning outcomes. When comparing my project to others, I feel it does not look as impressive. A book or a magazine looks very professional and it has made me doubt the calendar's outcome.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If I was to do anything differently I think I would incorporate more onto the months pages as they are very simple, whether this is a more detailed background or include more images I think it could add to the calendars look.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If I had longer to complete this project I would like to refer back to my tumblr account <a href="http://marie-hope.tumblr.com/">http://marie-hope.tumblr.com/</a> and continue to update it. I would put the link on the back of the calendar for consumers to continue their trend hunting and see how the trends created in the calendar can be achieved and branch out into other areas of their lives.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There has been many problems I have faced going through the project, from models dropping out last minute, to being unable to use the fashion dates within the calendar, from the main photographer not wanting to carry out the shoots my way to the printers cancelling on me last minute. Every problem occurred I have been able to resolve and continue with the making of this project. They may have set me back in time but I feel I have grown in confidence as a result. Luckily I feel I have been very organised and planned everything well for this project. There has been exceptions, when I have needed to re shoot an image, but as a whole I feel that the project has ran smoothly.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that one of the biggest successes of this project was the trip to London. Without this trip I feel I would have really struggled with inspiration and ideas when creating my trend forecasts.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am also very grateful and pleased with all of the feedback I have had from the project. Everyone's input has helped to improve and offer alternative ideas to the outcome of the project and I feel that as the work has been shown along the way this has meant there has not been a massive amount of changes that needed to be carried out at the end. Keeping on top of the project is one thing I am proud of. I feel I have timed every part of the project well and although it has resulted in a new time schedule, it has been effective.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The biggest change from my proposal would have to be the layout of the calendar. It has changed massively than what was originally planned. I believe that the test layouts have helped me come up with a strong design and as a result better suited to the high street. I feel I have now created a product that is desirable to the fashion consumer. I have had feedback from a number of people and they commented that this is a really innovative idea and if they saw a product like this on the high street, that they would be interested in purchasing it. I think that the trend element of the project has really improved and created a unique product. Although the calendar was originally going to feature an inspiration coloumn I think this has still been addressed as it moulded into the use of the mood boards. By it being a trend product as well as a calendar means that the consumer can 'kill two birds with one stone' and as it is for the entire year they do not have to keep on checking up on what is the next trend as they will have the whole year planned for them in advance. The trends can be interpreted in many different ways so although trends can be created from the forecasts, the consumers will not be clones of one another. It is there to help the consumer with ideas and offer inspiration when creating their own looks.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As there is very little, or nothing like this already on the market the competition is very varied. I would say it has two types of competition, the trend forecasters and the calendar publishers. But as this is a unique product it has no direct competition. I would also say that fashion magazines are a close competition as they offer ideas on how to style yourself as well as informing the consumer on the latest trends. However it is normally monthly and not yearly and does not provide future ideas.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I believe that the trend forecasts which have been created are very similar in style and professionalism to what would be produced in industry. There has been thorough research carried out to back what is being said and also a review of what is happening and been seen about now. I believe that I have learnt a lot from creating these forecasts and would be confident in creating one if I was to work in this type of industry.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When walking through the door they knew immediately who I was and what I had come into the shop for. I was told by them on the phone to arrive for nine so I was the first lot of printing of the day. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The woman who I had been speaking to on the phone brought over a print out of the test file which I had sent over and showed it to me. The image was badly lined and discoloured. The woman explained to me that the printer was having problems and that she thought that what I wanted printed out was unachievable. They also informed me that the engineer was not coming out to visit until the Monday and it wasn't guaranteed to be fixed by then. I was hoping to get my prints back by Monday evening so this information totally threw me. I was a little annoyed at the fact she could of told me this over the telephone as I double checked everything was okay to print the day before. As the business was a franchise she advised of another place I could go to instead. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When arriving at the other printers I walked through the door and instantly saw that they had different, older and smaller looking printers. I explained to the woman the problems that I had had and asked if she would give me a quote. It was nearly twice as expensive as the other place! I couldn't believe it but I knew that I needed to get it done and this is something that I may need to do. I asked if they would be willing to print my calendar and if they would be able to start it today. The woman was very blunt and rude and simply said no. I was a little annoyed at the bluntness and the fact that there seemed to be no printing already going on as none of the printers were in use. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After explaining that I would eventually need another lot printed she came round to the point of saying yes. I asked her if I could have just a test page printed to check out the quality of their printing. The woman printed out the first page of the calendar and showed me. It had marks and grids all over it, and the grey was dotted with yellow. I was not impressed. When highlighted to the woman, she printed off another, different page. The lines weren't present but the grey was still not solid. The woman put it down to my file having the problems on. I was so annoyed at the fact they were blaming my file. I knew it wasn't as I had had the image printed at University and none of the problems were on the copy. I was not impressed with the printers and left, with the test sheets they printed. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Luckily I knew of one other printers so i drove there. After speaking to the woman on the desk it became clear they were not interested in helping me. I think I had this problem because I was visiting printers who print for businesses and do batch orders, where as mine was a order of around 10 making them not interested. I asked for a quote at the printers and they said that i would need to email over the details as they were unable to tell me there and then. I asked when they would be able to print for me and they said not till about a week. I needed the calendars before then so I left. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was now stumped about what to do next. It was a Friday afternoon and I now had no printers to print my calendar. I scoured the internet for the next hour and phoned up a few companies. Most said they would be unable to print for me in the time slot I needed. On my fourth attempt of ringing a printers I found a company who was willing to do it for me. They were very local and when asked for a quote over the telephone, extremely reasonable. I said to them would I be able to send over a test file for them to print and then I could come down and asses the quality. They said they would. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">An hour later I went down to the printers and they had printed off the test file for me. I had also taken along the other test sheets from the other printers to check that the files were going to be better quality. They were. They also showed me a range of papers and found a more suitable, thicker card. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The test file which they printed off was far more Magenta than the other files which had been tested. I mentioned this and the worker changed the settings on the computer and printed it out again. It was better but still far too Magenta. As I still had the individual files and InDesign file he opened up the files, adjusted each one and printed again. It was starting to get better but the colours were not right. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He then told me that he would get in contact with the printer manufacturer and get them to show him how to adjust the printer settings. Once he had done this he would then print out the test file and call me back to see whether it was any better. He gave me the failed test files back and when I left the shop and got back home I realised that the Magenta images did not look half as pink in natural daylight. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A few hours later I returned to the printers to see that he had fixed the colouring. I commented that the colourings looked totally different in the natural daylight so we took all of the test copy's by the window and realised that the new settings on the computer were in fact too Cyan. He assured me that he now knew how to change the settings and would just go back to printing in the old settings. I confirmed that I was just wanting the one calendar printed for now and then I would then come back and asses whether I want more printed. I was going to get the calendar back on Monday evening which was expected but it now meant that I would have to delay going back to Southampton. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They gave me a quote as I said I would want 5 printed and they said for the same price they could print 10 so if all goes well I am going to get another 10 printed. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Notes on Metamodernism was looked at first. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The website describes itsself as</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> 'Notes on metamodernism is a webzine documenting trends and tendencies across aesthetics and culture that can no longer be understood by a postmodern vernacular but require another idiom - one that we have come to call metamodernism.'</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From here I went into the website and read a few articles. As I did not understand what 'Metamodernism' was this was my first port of call.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;"><br /></span></span><br />
<i style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22px; text-align: left;">"What we are witnessing is the emergence of a new cultural dominant – metamodernism.</i><br />
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>We understand metamodernism first and foremost as a structure of feeling, which can be defined, after Raymond Williams, as “a particular quality of social experience […] historically distinct from other particular qualities, which gives the sense of a generation or of a period.” [2] Metamodernism therefore is both a heuristic label to come to terms with recent changes in aesthetics and culture and a notion to periodize these changes. So when we speak of metamodernism we do <strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">not</strong> refer to a particular movement, a specific manifesto or a set of theoretical or stylistic conventions. We do not attempt, in other words, as Charles Jencks would do, to group, categorize and pigeonhole the creative work of this or that architect or artist. [3] We rather attempt to chart, after Jameson, the ‘cultural dominant’ of a specific stage in the development of modernity. [4]<span style="line-height: 14px;">"</span></i></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">I now feel I have a much better </span><span style="line-height: 13px;">understanding</span><span style="line-height: 14px;"> of what </span><span style="line-height: 13px;">Meta modernism</span><span style="line-height: 14px;"> is and feel this research has </span><span style="line-height: 13px;">benefited</span><span style="line-height: 14px;"> my trend info. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><span style="line-height: 14px;"><br /></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">It is relevant to my trend as it is talking about the transition between post modern and modernity and how attitudes and things are changing. This is relevant as I speak about how peoples ideas should now change and how the world and Britain are having issues which are causing a rolling ball effect on society. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have also gone back to evaluate WGSN and how their trends are constructed and show fashion authority. WGSN is a extremely highly valued trend forecasting website which members have to pay a subscription fee to view. The website informs readers of the latest goings on and what is around the corner. This website is one of the main sources of inspiration behind the project as it so well known and respected especially in the industry. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have read through a few of their trend forecasts. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a n example of one they have created for A/W 2013/14 </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I believe my trend forecasts are similar to these. I have provided a title, a description, images with key elements which relate and a pantone chart at the bottom, all of which WGSN have done. I like the way they have incorporated the images into the trend forecasts and labelled which colour it is. By doing this it allows people within industry to get the exact colour match to fit this trend. I think that the WGSN trend layout is very simple and the images fit well but I feel that a more detailed explanation could be given as it is very vague. This does allow a variety of industrys to use it but also creates a broad allowance as to what is in the trend. Industry can draw upon this trend and then filter it down to the consumer. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have looked back over the Fashion Snoops tumblr to check that I have kept on track for my trend predictions. Their trend predictions are a little different as they are more specific to a particular industry, where as the trends which WGSN create can relate to any industry. Each trend fashion snoops creates is for a industry, but it has a range of different industrys it targets. I want my trend forecasts to be specific to Beauty but also be able to stretch to fashion and colours as they are so closely linked.I do not like the layout of the mood boards as I feel that they have not been carefully constructed. I feel that the content is very relevant but the images could fit together better so it looks like one image and not lots put together. </span><br />

Minimalism is the key to keeping this trend balance with a monochromatic color palette and touches of metallic and holographic finishes. Look to brands like Y-3 and Margiela for inspiration.</span></span><br />

We look to new material combinations and fabrications such as canvas, braided jute and wax-finished leathers. Over-sized cuffs and neck-wear also make a statement for SS13, setting a new identification from past seasons’ African expression.</span></span></div>

For many decades music has influenced fashion but one consist trend taken from the industry is a nod to rocker’s non-nonchalant garb. With juxtapositions from distressed and worn in tailoring at John Varvatos to casual kick-back Cobain style at Nicholas K, this trend is sure to fill the shelves for SS13 with more attitude and style than any of the others.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This of course is targetting a different industry but it gives an idea of what is needed to put togther a trend forecast. They have included key colours that are relevant to each trend, this is something which I have also done.<br /><br />Both websites have created trends with a description and a range of images all put together to create a mood board. This is something I have created and therefore proves that I am working to the same standard as what industry would produce. </span></div>

It has taken me some time to construct the calendar but I am happy with the layout and the balance between trend package and calendar. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before I go to the printers I feel it is important for me to show my tutors first to allow them to preview the product and give feedback on any elements I need to change. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There has been a few parts of the outcome that they have suggested I change. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Within the trend explanations there were a few sentences that needed rewording or certain spellings changed. This was not a big problem and I am very pleased that they were able to pick up on it for me. On the third trend explanation it was suggested to revisit and look up the website 'notes on meta modernism' (<a href="http://www.metamodernism.com/">http://www.metamodernism.com/</a>). This way my trend would have a stronger meaning and look well researched. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whilst going through the pages and viewing the images, they mentioned a few issues with some of the images. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The first image which they addressed was the one of Steph. They commented that it had been poorly edited as the skin was so airbrushed and looked patchy in places and the contouring of the cheekbone had been made to look 'muddy'. I agreed with what they were saying and decided that I would have to re touch the image. As I was going to address these issues I thought I may as well correct other parts of the image which I do not like. I do not like the way Magdalena has edited the hair. It has been blurred out at the edges and now looks highly edited. I want to create a more natural finish so I will also address this. I decided to use a blue wash over the image to link it back to the mood board. The mood board is very blue and I want to portray this in my image. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is what I have been able to achieve:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Magdalena's edit- my edit-</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am pleased with the results and feel I have done a good job. I feel that this image demonstrates my Photoshop skills and ability to take advice from lecturers feedback. I am mostly impressed with the way I have corrected the hair. I feel it looks a lot neater and crisper, giving a more natural finish. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They also asked if I would be able to revisit the image of Caroline and extend her neck slightly as it looks a little short. This was something I had not noticed but thought I would correct anyway. I have done it very slightly so it still looks natural. I was unsure on how to address this issue but after playing on Photoshop and carrying out trial and error way I feel I came up with a effective solution. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lastly they commented that they did not like the way the hair in the image of Elesha (image below) had been retouched. It looked highly unnatural and the the parting just disappeared into a blur. I totally agree with what they have picked up on and feel I need to correct this. Luckily I have the original file of this image so I can work on it to create a better finish. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It has taken me some time but I am extremely happy with the results. I feel this image strongly shows my Photoshop skills and has improved the image. It is very satisfying knowing that I have managed to create a better finish on an image compared to someone who works in industry. it makes me more confident in knowing that I would be able to re-touch images to a high standard when working in industry. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The lecturers were happy with the calendar and asked to see my blog. When pulling up the pages I mentioned that I really like the mood boards but they do not fit in the calendar. They strongly suggested that I do include them as it would add to the trend element of the calendar and back up each image. They thought it would be very important and as the quality of the mood boards was high it would help improve the project. I mentioned I would not know where to put them and they have now suggested that I feature them on the back of the page above. This also meant that I needed to re design my trend pages to fit in the mood board. It also changes the way the calendar can be hung up. The calendar is going to need to be whole punched at the bottom of the page in order for the calendar to be hung showing the image and the mood board. I intend to keep the option of a hooped ring bound so there is a choice of how the consumer wants to hang the calendar up. By hanging it up with the mood boards on show is going to double the space on the wall so I think having an option is important. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This now means that the cost of each calendar is going to be increased as there is now nearly double the amount of pages but I feel it is important to do this to improve the outcome. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After making the amendments and reconstructing the calendar I have returned to show them the work. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They are pleased with the results and feel the mood boards do benefit and link in with the images. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The only image which was slightly weaker when linking to the mood board was the image of Meg. They commented that there was no green within the image like in the mood board. Maybe address the image as the mood board is so strong. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Other than this they felt everything was okay to print. This was very satisfying, knowing that I had their approval. I feel I have communicated with the lecturers well throughout the project and shown that I am responsible for independent learning. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have now got back in contact with the printers I intend to use and sent over a test file to ensure that the file is going to be able to open on their computers. As I am going to be travelling back from Southampton to Birmingham, I cannot afford to get there and the file not work, so I felt this was very important to do. I also checked that they are going to be able to print in the time slot that I need and they confirmed. I feel that I have shown my initiative and shown responsibility for my independent learning when contacting and trying out the file as it proves I am thinking ahead and showing ways of avoiding a problem. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Thursday 18th April:</u> I have still not had a conformation email from the printers clarifying that they have received my file and been able to open it. So I have decided to ring them and check. Whilst on the phone I asked what to do with the bleed on the pages and they explained how to do it, very helpful! They told me they had received the email and that the file did open fine. I was confident with them and that they would be able to do what I wanted as they knew what they were talking about. </span><br />

Luckily I only have mainly two images for each to choose from. I have also been adding to a document of what order and which images look better next to one another, so I have an idea of which ones I am going to use.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have realised that my calendar is going to need a front cover and I am wanting to put an image from one of my shoots on the front of it. I need to pick one of the strongest as it will give an idea to the consumer of what is going to be featured inside the calendar.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I need to get an idea of what layout I am going to use first.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Due to a recent visit to the printers I intend to use I have decided to change the layout of the calendar.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I visited the printers to get a quote on how much it would be to print the calendar and also get an idea of what their print quality was and whether they would be able to achieve what I was after.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was happy with the quote of what they gave me</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">(£25.00 for an A4 calendar printed on silk card and consisting of 20 pages)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and the quality of their printing. They had an enormous printer that filled the whole of their back wall. Seeing this gave me the impression that they would be able to achieve high quality printing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They showed me an example calendar in A4 of what they had done. After flicking though I realised that A4 is going to be too small for what I want. If I am going to use A4 it would mean that the images I have created would only be around A5 which to me is too small.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The printers were in the process of an order which was printing pages that were square. This has given me the idea to print my calendar square as that way it would mean I get to print my images A4 and there would not be masses of room spare for the calendar aspect. I do not want the calendar feature on the page to detract or over power the main point of the calendar, the images. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am not sure how I want to layout the calendar I just know of the content that will be within it. I have decided against using an inspirational column as I do not want to detract from the image. I want the calendar to be simplistic and clean cut so it is important to not have too much on a page.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After research online I have realised that I am going to be unable to get hold of the important fashion dates and be able to use them in my calendar. As the calendar is going to be for 2014 there are no definite dates released yet. This is really disappointing as I really think it would have added to the fashion and trend aspect of the calendar. As the calendar is targeting the fashion concious these dates would have interested them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of the most difficult aspects of designing the layout is finding a balance between a trend product and a wall calendar. I do not want the outcome to look like just a calendar. It is more than that. I also do not want the outcome to look like a load of pages of trends. Deciding what goes into the outcome and how it will sit on the page is going to be difficult. I want to create a specialist calendar. A trend forecasting calendar. It is very rare for the public to get hold of trend products so it is important that it is going to appeal but they are also going to use it, unlike a magazine where they will read the magazine and chuck it. I want the outcome to be related to constantly and by creating a calendar it will ensure that the consumer is looking and the product constantly if not daily. By ensuring it is a calendar as well will ensure that it is important in their lives.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have looked around and these are some examples of layouts of calendars that I like</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a very basic layout of a calendar and although it does not feature a image what drew me to it was the fact that it had a notes section. I had not considered doing this. The consumer could make notes and jot down ideas of make up and hair ideas which have been referenced from each months image. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Although this is from a page where the calendar is daily rather than monthly. I liked the idea of featureing the date (or month in my case) at the bottom of the page. I also like the idea of the background of the image also being the background of the page. This way the image will look part of the page. I am not too sure how I would achieve this if I was to do it for my calendar. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I like the way that the image is the main part of the page and the calendar, although featured is attached onto the side. It is also semi transparent so not to disrupt the the image. I like the idea of having the calendar aspect down the side of the page. I could use it next to my image rather than underneath otherwise it would be a very long calendar.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Although this calendar features three images and I only want to use one I like the idea of having the calendar tucked up in the corner. I also like the layout of the page. The way the writing is a clear feature and the year is down the side. I originally wanted to use a landscape format but with all of my images being portrait it makes the rest of the page a wasted space. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is another style which I like the look of. The image is portrait and by having the month down the side of the page allows the other calendar side to look so big.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a calendar page which is all about the image. The month is very small and hardly takes over the page. I think the calendar should be a little more relevant than this in my project. Although I am trying to find a balance, I still want the consumer to constantly refer to the images. This type of calendar is more of a poster that would be hung on the wall rather than a useful time keeper. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is the idea of having a different layout of calendar. I think the grid is a good idea as the consumer will still be able to write their plans on, but it is quite bulky and would take up quite a lot of room. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I selected this image fir deciding on how to layout my front cover. I really like the way the image is the entire background and the writing works over the top. It is simple with the colours all working together. I think that all of the calendar pages need to be consistent in style and colour throughout. Whatever is on the front page would have to work with all of the other pages. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Again, this image was selected for when I would design the from cover of my calendar. I really like the layout of this page. I think the square aspect is different and does not look as basic. I also like the way the writing is over the top of the background but it does not interfere with the design. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a similar image to what has already been evaluated. I feel this style would be fitting with my calendars look however I am unsure whether it could sit over the top of the image as it may hide some of the head shot detail. It may need to be next to the image instead. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a different layout which I had not considered. The calendar is featured but it is very minimalist.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This was the last image I selected for my front cover. I like the idea of having the writing on one side of the page and the image on the other. But they still work together as they sit on top of one another.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I like this layout because the consumer can still use the pages to write on and keep a daily planner. I feel it is not too intrusive over the pages but has a nice balance between trend and calendar aspects. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I do like the simplicity of this image and although it features the calendar I feel there is a lot of wasted space. As the consumer cannot use the calendar for anything more than seeing what day and not being able to reference it for plans, I do not think the calendar feature is strong enough. </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the first layout I came up with for my trend pages. It is in keeping with the rest of the calendar as it is very simple. I think it may be a little too simple and not exciting enough for the consumer to want to read it. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I decided to play around with the layout and see what else I could create. I like this design as it feels more welcoming to read. I also like the different font that has been used as it adds variation and some personality to the calendar. I have also put key elements in the hair and makeup within the key colours. Although this is a good idea it does not show up that well on the lighter colours. I have been able to create these looks as I now feel confident in Photoshop and InDesign. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I came up with this idea when finding this from Loreal. This inspired me to create this design.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have decided to use the grey instead of the white as I found the white looked too stark and simple. I want the calendar to be modern and minimalist, but not boring. The images looked like they had been slapped on the page and there was no thought gone into it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before deciding on a final layout I ensured that I got some feedback. They mentioned to think about whether the ring binder would destroy the top of my images. This was something which I had not contemplated. It was important for when it is bound that it would not go through the images. I could either make the images smaller which would create more space at the side. There is already a lot of space I do not want to create more. Or I could make the canvas size a little bigger to make room for where it will be pierced. I have decided to add a centimetre allowance at the top of my pages to allow the ring bind to go through that instead of my images. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When thinking about the ring bind I had to then decide on the type and style of ring bind. To keep it in keeping with the modern minimalistic look I think that I should use a silver metal bind. I also need to ensure that the calendar is going to be able to be hung on the wall, so ideally the ring bind needs to have a hoop in which the consumer can then put a pin through and attach it to their wall. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think this layout meets the criteria of what I want to create. It is clean cut and has a focus upon the images. The calendar needs to be specific to my trends so I feel that I have been able to find a balance between the two aspects. It is important to create this so the consumer feels like they are purchasing something unique and appealing. As there are no other calendars like this that I am aware of it is a desirable product which brings them closer to what is going on in the fashion industry. The planning and decisions that are made when constructing and creating a trend package is normally very private, especially in fashion. Consumers usually find out weeks down the line, normally from secondary sources. This calendar will challenge this and provide the consumer with primary information which they can get immediately for when the season arrives.</span><br />

The studio which Lulu had booked was still being occupied by the people who had booked it before so I had to wait until they were finished. They did leave the lighting out that I thought I might need. I started to set up and found I had given myself plenty of time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When the model turned up I showed her through what I was wanting to achieve from the shoot and then got started with the hair and make- up. Whilst I was styling Elle, Lulu arrived and started to set up the studio to what I needed. She was really helpful and said she would create whatever style I wanted which was a huge relief and good to know that the images were going to turn out how I wanted them. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The make up application seemed to go really quickly and found I had plenty of time to shoot. After spending 45 minutes shooting Lulu was happy with the images she had captured and showed me them to see whether I was too. I was and just as I was removing the make-up from Elle my other model arrived. Whilst I finished off removing the make up I got Lydia to get changed into her strapless top. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whilst I carried out the make up and hair on Lydia, Lulu went for some lunch and returned to re-jig the lighting a bit later. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had originally planned to use hair extensions within Lydia's hair to make the hair really big on top of her head and to make it appear like there was chains lost and tangled in her hair. But after applying the hair extensions I decided it looked better without. The hair was not a complete colour match and there was too much hair. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The shoot with Lydia also went extremely well and I got a range of different images.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At the end of the shoot I offered to let Lulu put all of the images on my laptop and then I could go home and have a look through and decide on two. She preferred to get the whole shoot over and done with so decided that she would sit with me and we could edit the images together, that way I could get the edits straight away and I could have a better input into how they were going to be done. It also meant that she was only willing to give me the two images but I did not mind as I only really needed one but I would like two to put in my portfolio. I agreed to sit with her until we were done. I thought this was an very good idea and wished I had of had that option when working with Magdalena. I preferred working with Lulu as she was willing to carry the shoot out how I wanted. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lulu was also incredibly talented on Photoshop and if I mentioned something on the image to change she could easily do it. When we were done I felt very satisfied and pleased with the results. I wish I had found her earlier in the project and asked for her to do more. I mentioned that I may have to re shoot an image next week and she said she would be happy to work on it with me as she was impressed with my model scouting and make up and hair skills. This was reassuring, I now need to find a model for May's look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These are the images I received:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> We decided that it would be best to have one front on image and one to the side as an alternative. I am very pleased with the results and although we put a green tone over the image. When I got home and compared them to the other images within the calendar, it was too intense so I have re edited them and toned the green down. </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that the hair and eyebrows are the focus within this design and it has worked well. I feel I have managed to achieve the grungy look but also relate it back to my mood board and trend. The model I used was brilliant at taking direction and this resulted in getting images which are really strong and intense in emotion. The only issue I have with the image which was also a problem when creating the design, was that the paint in the hair would not dry because it was oil paint. This meant that orange paint kept on being transferred onto the skin so I had to keep stepping into the shot to wipe away orange on the skin. As the hair was wet this also meant that the hair would not dry in place and I had to rearrange the hair into position several times. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that this image clearly reflects with what is going on in the mood board. The cemetery relates to the deep intense eyes and the fire is reflected in the strands of fiery hair. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I felt like I had plenty of time to create this look so I was totally satisfied with the design and outcome. I think I prefer the image where Elle is facing straight on as it looks like there is more attitude and arrogance. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am also extremely pleased with these images. They are really clean cut and I like the shape of the shoulders in relation to the background. The lighting is also extremely flattering. I think the smudged orange lip is extremely successful and could easily be related back to my trend of 'failure is the new perfection'. I think the orange lip could highlight to the consumer that orange and coral lips are in for this season. I also like the subtle aqua flick of eye liner. It is bright but it does not detract from the main element of the design, the lips. I feel that by the hair being styled up it has added to the clean cut image. I am very satisfied and feel this is one of the strongest images in the entire calendar. I am please d that I was able to reuse some of the jewellery which has been bought for other shoots and never used. Although the design is very messy it has been done in a carefully refined and planned way creating a striking image which would be something which could be seen in a magazine. There is nothing about these images which I would change. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lulu has been able to create exactly what I had envisioned and this is why these two images are my favourite out of the entire calendar. As most of the images I have used in the calendar are side shots, it is a nice alternative to feature some front on poses. I feel that by them being more head on they are more confrontational which is relevant to my trend.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Fridays shoot:</u> Friday was a pleasant change to what I had been doing the last few weeks. As it was for fashion students the focus was upon the clothing so the make-up did not need to be so elaborate. I had to do two looks on Caroline, the first was with golds so although gold was featured in my second trend, it did not relate to my mood board. The second look they were wanting was a lot more natural, in washes of pale colours as this was a more floral look. As they said to me I could create what I wanted within reason, I decided to cater it to the look I was wanting to create for May. I had to filter it down slightly but as May was a very natural look anyway this did not matter. At the end of the shoot they offered me the chance to get a few head shots so I could use the images. I jumped at the chance to tweak the make-up and cater it to what I needed. I added the bubble wrap around her neck and re powdered her face. I gave instruction as to what I was wanting and this is what was achieved. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They gave me all the images at the end of the shoot which meant that I would have to edit the images myself but I did not mind this as it was my last image of the calendar. This is what I created.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I was having to edit the images myself I only edited the one. I carefully picked which image was this best and this is what I decided on. Although the model is looking directly into the camera, the expression is very relaxed and soft. I used bubble wrap as it shows a nurtured and delicate feeling, like the model is fragile. The makeup is very subtle but it is in the same colours and depth as the mood board I created. I am much more satisfied with this image and am happy to use it within my calendar. The only element which I am not so pleased with, is the hair. I feel I could have done a better job at creating a tumbling up-do. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was unsure as to whether the shoot would be suitable to my look but it was and I feel it went very well. As I was organised and left myself plenty of time I feel that this has shown through the images and pays off. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As this was not my shoot it did not cost me anything. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the most natural and likely to be seen on the high street I think it will appeal to the target market. It is clear that they would be able to achieve this look and are more likely to attempt it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">By doing a look like this it shows some variation in the images and my skills. It also shows my initiative to seize the opportunity to shoot with a model ideal for my look and use it to my benefit. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have put to use skills which have been learnt from when Alex Box did a demonstration at the University. I watched her show a more unique way of flattening eyebrows. This has been put to use in this image and I feel it was successful. I feel I carried out the shoot in a professional manner and allowed the client to get the outcome they were after as well as meeting mine. I feel that it is important to allow the client to be happy when working on a shoot in industry as that way you are more likely to be asked to return for work on future shoots. </span>marie-hopehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369695260628009470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013267073713001316.post-29059405165105089222012-05-04T12:08:00.007-07:002012-05-06T11:22:24.600-07:00planning shoot for last two looks<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For the last two images and the re-shooting image, I need to find a new photographer. As Magdalena was so good at photography my standards are high to find another one. They also need to have a similar style to what has already been shot. I do not want to ask around or even do the images myself. Even though I have learnt a lot from the photography sessions over the past three years I would prefer to use someone who specialises in photography and knows exactly what they are doing and if I showed them an image they would know how to recreate it. I decided to look back at Model Mayhem and see who was working in the Southampton area during Easter. I have found one photographer who's work I really like and she looks to focus upon fashion and beauty. She is also a fashion photography student at the same university as me making it extremely useful for her knowing the studios. I am a little wary about using another student as I know from past experience that they are not always as good as those in industry. When mentioning it to a friend she recommended to use this photographer and said her work is amazing but she is very busy and you may not get the chance to shoot with her. I decided to ask anyway. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After a few emails back and forth the photographer (Lulu Mcardle) confirmed that she would be happy to work with me as it sounds an interesting concept. She also mentioned that she would be able to shoot next week and if I was free I could use the slot she had booked in the studio on Thursday. I have accepted and now got the challenge of finding models. As Lulu has booked a long session in the studio I am going to and do the two looks as well as re shooting the other look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These are some of Lulu's images which she has up on Model Mayhem. I really like her style as all of her images are very clean cut and she seems to know what lighting works best. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My biggest task now is to find models, during the Easter holidays, local, within budget and during the day. I have always tried to aim to shoot of an evening as models are usually more likely to be available. As I only had 3 looks to do and each one had a model specification I know it is going to be a challenge. Luckily I have a week to scout them and I feel a lot more confident in being able to carry it out.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Tuesday 27th March:</u> By Sunday (25th March) evening I had managed to find myself a model for my re-shoot. She was found through Model Mayhem and lives not far away. I had confirmed with her and given her all the details for the shoot on Thursday. I contacted her again yesterday through email and had no reply and I have contacted her again today and still heard nothing. I am presuming that she has changed her mind. I do not want to use a model who is going to be unreliable so I have decided to continue my search for finding a model to re-shoot the May look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have however managed to source models for the last two looks of my third trend. The first is Elle Richie. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/120225/13/4f494df941d38.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="275" src="http://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/120225/13/4f494df941d38.jpg" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/120310/01/4f5b1df584cb7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/120310/01/4f5b1df584cb7.jpg" width="278" /></a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As Elle's hair is a ginger/reddy tone it would work well within my trend. I feel her look would match the grungy look I am going for with the orange eyebrows and smoky eyes. I have decided to use her as I have been looking through her images on Model Mayhem and smoky eyes have been used a lot and she pulls it off. I think because she has quite a 'pretty' face with small features, a grungy look would work well as a contrast. She is also a full time model so feel confident that she would be able to achieve the look I am after. I have been emailing her back and forth and found out she is trying to build her beauty portfolio so is happy to work on a TFP basis as long as her travel is covered. As she lives not too far away I am happy to do this. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The other model which I have managed to find is called Lydia Taylor. I had been in contact with her prior to this shoot and have been wanting to work with her for ages but each others diaries have always clashed. She is also quite expensive and wants £70 for her time and travel. She has a really strong face with defined cheekbones and a strong jaw. She would be ideal for my September looks as she also has blonde hair. Although she is on ModelMayhem she is part of a modelling agency so she had to be careful with accepting the shoot. As we were communicating we came to the agreement that she would do the shoot as long as I would notify her if the images were to be published and that I would not put them online. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wednesday 28th March: I have been unable to find a model to re-shoot my May look so I am going to have to leave it for Thursday and think about booking another studio for the following week. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have also been asked to do a photo shoot with some fashion students on Friday. They have not informed me of what look they are wanting me to create but the model they have shown me who they are using would be ideal for my May look. They have booked the studio all day so I am hoping that if there is some time left at the end of the day I will be able to do the look I need. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the model they would be using: Her name is Caroline Raymond. </span><br />

<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She would be ideal for the May look as she is blonde and has very small soft features. The look I want to create is going to be a lot more natural compared to what I did before so I need the model to have good skin and fair features. </span>marie-hopehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369695260628009470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013267073713001316.post-74678639423861404222012-05-04T11:17:00.004-07:002012-05-06T11:17:53.416-07:00edits from shoot 6 and 7<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was surprised to have all the edits from both shoots with Magdalena back the next day, mid afternoon. Before viewing the images I automatically got the impression that she had rushed the edits in order for them to get back to me. When I opened the images up I was pleased with what she had done but there were some parts which had not been addressed and other elements that were not well done. I presumed that I would have to go over.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that Magdalena and the model were able to capture the expression and mood that I was wanting to portray in this image. This was the reference image which I showed them both. I feel that it has a clear similarity.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Magdalena has done well in recreating this image, especially as the studio was unfortunate. She has bleached out the background and created quite a bright, dream like edit. I am pleased with the image but I am not happy with the way she has edited the hair. She has copied a section over and over again, creating a stripy edited look. I feel the make up really complements the wig and the overall feel of the image is soft. I am glad that I used a dark skin for this look as it really makes the soft colours stand out, and with the bright washed out image, the model really stands out. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the image which Magdalena edited and used for herself. She has purposely created a stripy effect on the hair and I think this is why she has done it to my image. I do not like this as it no longer looks like hair. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I believe that there is a clear relationship between the images and mood boards. They feature the same colours and reflect a delicate feeling which links to the trend. Although I am pleased with the images I believe I have stronger images. The make-up and hair design is quite simple and there is no innovative ideas within the look. This could easily be recreated by the consumer. If I was to re-do this look I would make it a little more elaborate and creative.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I feel I have vastly improved and feel a lot more confident in re-touching the images on Photoshop myself I have decided to re-touch the image a little and make it a little more to my liking. This is what I have created.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have not changed the image massively but I have tried to correct the hair so it doesn't look so stripy and I have also edited the fringe to make it look straighter. I feel I have done this successfully.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The budget for creating this image was not too expensive.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">eye shadow £9.99</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">eyelashes £3.99</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">taxi fare £10.00</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Total £23.98</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The image works well within the calendar and backs up what is being said within my trend. Although the make-up and hair design is more wearable it still links with the other images. If the consumer did want to recreate this look they may use the same make-up design or take influence from the style it has been created. For the hair I believe it is unlikely for them to get their hair dyed into a pale pink bob. I do however believe that it could influence the consumer to get a similar cut bob. I am pleased that I used a darker skin tone for this look and feel it works well within the calendar. By me using a variation of models it allows the consumer to relate to the images better. The image shows that I am able to create a range of different make-up designs. It also shows that I can use wigs, something is useful to know when working out in industry.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I knew before I received these images that I was going to need to re-shoot the look using a different model and different hair and make-up. I believe that this is because I was not imaginative with my hair design and the make-up was not thought through well enough and as a result did not relate to the mood board strongly. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I really struggled with selecting an two images to get edited as I was not happy with any of them. I only got these edited in order to send back to the model.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The make-up looks way to extreme for this trend. I need to tone it right down for the re-shoot. The mood board for this look includes a wash of very pale colours and I do not think this comes across in the images at all. I feel by me addressing this issue it shows that I am able to critically evaluate my work. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With regards to the model, it was hard to get her to pull soft expressions. I think this is partly due to the hair and make-up design but also the models face. She looked very serious in most of the images taken and meant that many of the images were irrelevant.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel this look needs to have a lot more planning and when coming up with a design, the mood board needs to be sat in front of me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am very disappointed with myself and the shoot and feel I can do a lot better. It is also frustrating knowing that the model was so expensive.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The problem is now finding the time to re-shoot this months image. I know that it is Easter next week and getting models during the day is going to be a challenge. I do have time after Easter but I do not want this pressure.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Although this shoot was only carried out yesterday and I have got the edits back already I am extremely pleased with the images. I feel Magdalena has edited these well and there is nothing that I need to do to them. I really like the lighting in the images, it looks like her hair is really blonde at the ends and really dark roots. This is due to the lighting highlighting the ends of the hair and creating a halo hair effect. I also like the way the lighting highlights the face but there is still shadows which relate back to the other images within the trend. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I prefer the first image as the other looks a little hazy. I also think the pose is stronger and gives a clear relation to the mood of the trend. I also do not like the hand in the second image. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The blue in Katie's eyes has been lightened to a pale blue, not far off the colour within the key colour trend. I like the fact that I have used red but a very dark red so it is not thought upon as being cliché.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Looking at the eyelashes that have been applied I would probably do it different next time. I think I would have applied a thick line of eye liner first and then attached the eyelashes. This way the eyelashes would not look like they have been randomly stuck on which I think it looks a little like in the images. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I believe the look does reflect what was said within the mood board although the mood board had more hints of aqua than this image. I think the bluey background has shown acknowledgement to this but it is still not strong enough. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I am very pleased with this look and am happy for it to be the ending image of the calendar. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To create this image it did cost a little more than expected but I believe it is worth it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">model fee £65.00</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">necklace £12.50</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">eyelashes £7.99</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Total: 85.49</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As well as the image fitting in with the rest of the looks in the calendar it is relevant to the season. Darker colours are normally worn during the winter and for the Christmas Season red is often featured. I have combined these two elements to work with my look and I feel this is successful. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I believe that this look would appeal to the consumer as it is quite a fashion looking image. It would also be able to filtered down to be wearable. </span><br />

<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHBtJYZYw0q46APgw8dyo3R6HQZ0B5qMgUYOaTy8IBtWnTvODBMSFlaaO9d3l649bBPBXWoNQ_PxjX1mHqOV_a9gu6K-pQHk5nnQ2k5AKwTPNmr-HiFkbzpScARIWISC1xd6VZMDh5Y2VY/s1600/IMG_3691a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHBtJYZYw0q46APgw8dyo3R6HQZ0B5qMgUYOaTy8IBtWnTvODBMSFlaaO9d3l649bBPBXWoNQ_PxjX1mHqOV_a9gu6K-pQHk5nnQ2k5AKwTPNmr-HiFkbzpScARIWISC1xd6VZMDh5Y2VY/s640/IMG_3691a.jpg" width="452" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am also pleased with these images although I feel there are parts that could be improved. From the two images I prefer the first. It is more striking and fierce which is what I wanted to portray. I also prefer the shadowing on the first. There is a clear contrast between the highlighted and shaded in the image by strong lines. I feel this adds to the feel of the image. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that the orange within the hair is also successful. The brightness stands out compared to the rest of the dark image and also allows it to relate back to the key colours of the trend. I am not so pleased with the way the hair has been edited it is obviously edited and now looks unnatural. It is also a shame that Magdalena has airbrushed the skin so much that all texture has gone. I feel that Magdalena has rushed this image to get it back to me. I believe this because there is a clear difference in the editing skills from the first shoots images to this. I feel that the lines around the eyes could be darker especially as there are some dark shading and tones already in the image. I am going to add this to the image. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am pleased with the model selection for this image. Elesha has managed to portray through her eyes what my mood board is saying in pictures. She also has the right look for this design. Very pleased with the outcome. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This image was a lot cheaper to recreate. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">jewellery £12.50</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">paint £3.00</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">total £15.50</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Because this was a considerably cheaper image to shoot it balances out the price of the previous. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that the image strongly relates to the mood board and results in a strong image within my trend. I feel that this image could result in a trend starting. Instead of dip dying hair (trend that is around at present) it could be a root colour trend for 2014. I feel this image is very fashion orientated and could be seen on Catwalks. Although designers are supposed to be the trend setters, this image is the sort of design which fashion may use. </span><br />

I was not willing to change studios as I had worked in this studio before and know that it was a good sized room. The people in there had already set up the lighting and got the right back drops. They assured me that they were nearly done so I let them carry on while I laid out my make-up and brushes. By the time I was set up they were finished and said they would leave out the lights for me to use. This was helpful as my model had arrived and it meant that I could get straight into the make-up application. The look went according to plan and just as I was finishing up the look my second model arrived with her mother. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While they were waiting I got them to complete the model release forms. Not long after this Magdalena arrived. Again she was not in the best of moods and was quite snappy. When I showed her what I wanted from the shoot she really wanted to use a black backdrop. Although the look was darker it was important to keep the looks in the same style of my other images in the calendar. As a compromise I said if she wanted to use the black drop at the end of the shoot, she could and use them in her portfolio. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">By the time Magdalena had finished shooting with Katie, Elesha was ready, which worked well. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The shoot with Elesha seemed very rushed. I got the impression that Magdalena did not want to be there. She swapped the background and appeared to get lots more images using the black backdrop. At the end of the shoot she gave me her the images from her memory card, quickly packed up and left. I knew it was the last time I would be working with her on this project and was wanting to say say bye and thank you properly but did not get the chance as she was so keen to get off. She did comment that she would be in contact. This was a little unexpected and did not finish off the shoot on a positive note. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When getting home from the shoot and going through the images properly it became clear that Magdalena had done most of the strongest images against the black backdrop making the best images unusable. This was a little frustrating but I was still able to choose from some others. I emailed over the chosen images immediately to allow Magdalena to have the chance to start editing straight away. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall the shoot with both models went smoothly. Both models turned up on the planned time and the make-up and hair design turned out as planned. My only improvement would be to not have been to give more instruction during the shoot so that more images were captured using the white backdrop.</span><br />

organise this shoot, the pressure is on. </span><br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have found it hard to source appropriate models for this shoot
seen as it is such short notice. As I planned all four looks I have the option
to get models for any of the looks, helping slightly.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is the day before the shoot and I have only just found suitable
models! I was very near to cancelling the shoot as I did not want to compromise
models just so I could get some images. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As she was blonde it means that she could be used for one of two
looks I am planning to carry out. As she has quite long hair I think I would
like to carry out the last mood board look as I can create a big messy style.
Katie has requested that she does not work for 'TFP' so we have agreed on a
price of £65.00<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So far in the calendar I have no models with blonde hair so I am
excited for this shoot as it will add another different looking model into
it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Elesha fits the exact specification what I was after for this
trend. I have not got any models in my calendar who look like her so she is
perfect for the calendar. As she is only 16 she has requested to bring her
parent along with her to the shoot. This is not a problem. She has also
requested that she fills out a Model Release form out. I have got a model
release form that I have been using for the models. I was not aware that we
needed to carry out model release forms prior to this project but I understand
that they are important especially when working out in industry. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As Elesha has such dark long hair I plan to use her for the look
with orange roots. The orange will be able to stand out in a strong contrast to
the deep hair tone. As she has such strong and striking eyes and eyebrows I
want to keep her make-up quite simple and use the wrongly positioned
eye-liner. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now I have the models, I need to go shopping to get certain
products such as orange oil paint. I want the orange to really stand out and I
do not think that make-up will be able to show up strong enough on her dark
hair. I have used oil paints in my hair before so I am confident that it will
not stain the hair and will wash out easily. In order to ensure this I am going
to buy the same brand of paint. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also want to incorporate jewellery into these looks. As the
trend is quite hard and strong I want to use jewellery that is chunky and
unfeminine. I like the idea of using metal chains as they will reflect the
tough stubborn mood. The chains will need to be in dull gold to work with the
orange and reds in the images. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The jewellery will be sourced from the high street so that
consumers can see that they would be able recreate the looks and get similar
styled jewellery. </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>marie-hopehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369695260628009470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013267073713001316.post-89553048504905030752012-05-03T13:39:00.000-07:002012-05-07T06:23:52.660-07:00trend 3<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have decided to call this third and last trend '</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #666666;">Distorted Movements</span>'.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I feel this is an appropriate name which links back to my research and explains what the trend is about.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have created a mood board to explain the trend visually.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg9enGztQpot3OR5Rqf3XT5kLXyYngOQI91cFx1FiDHbcTz1VH92wHOqIXtz1ET1YcnjwEy-HPgxtjiWmw2v59iOH6gEUqAwnvI0a9MgzDDQaHHx5yiEedK6WyTEgTKyDmvyEzzr0h03IP/s1600/trend+3+mb.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="415" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg9enGztQpot3OR5Rqf3XT5kLXyYngOQI91cFx1FiDHbcTz1VH92wHOqIXtz1ET1YcnjwEy-HPgxtjiWmw2v59iOH6gEUqAwnvI0a9MgzDDQaHHx5yiEedK6WyTEgTKyDmvyEzzr0h03IP/s640/trend+3+mb.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This trend is a lot darker compared to the previous. It's mood is also deeper and moodier. There is an air of arrogance and confidence about this trend. This is focused towards causing a rebellion against tradition. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These are the key colours of the trend. They hold darker tones for the winter months but also deep in pigment. The base colours are blacks and greys and stone, colours which can work along side any of the other tones. The blue adds a hit of intensity into the trend. It is there to pack a punch! The deep red represents the blood and anger felt by today's society. The burnt orange represents the chaos which has been caused and the buzzy adrenaline which pumps through the youths veins as they cause chaos. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Confusion clouds the minds of most, as the structure of the UK appears unstable. The ecosystem is increasingly being disrupted, the financial system is spiralling in an uncontrollable frenzy, and geopolitical stability is looking uneven and precarious. An obscured smudge across Britain is forming and as a result creating chaotic movements.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Distorted Britain is now the contemporary view of Autumn/ Winter 2014. What is failure? A new understated fashion which is intentionally being formed and referred to as the abstract contorted way of the 90’s.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The moody attitude of today’s adolescents drives the trend of anti-fashion. Never underestimate the sharpened instincts of the future. They may graffiti the cities with laid-back arrogance, that have to be scrubbed at to neaten up but the marks just won’t go away. Leave the ‘under construction’ task to evolve in its own unusual way.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;">Deep, rich shades mix with hyped up tones show a clash of chaos. Shades that should not be put together and patterns that overlap create a difficult focus. Heated mix with the cool. Dark mix with the bright. Neat mix with the askew. A/W 2014 provides a protest to the previous trend. Inaccuracy can be replicated. </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This explanation has had to be altered due to an inaccuracy in the content. This was highlighted by the lecturers during a tutorial. They suggested to look at the website 'notes on metamodernism' (www.metamodernism.com) to give a better back up of what I wanted to say. I have done this and feel that the trend looks better researched and shows trend authority. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They also advised to look back at WGSN and the Fashion Snoops websites to check that my trends are to the same standard and style as theirs. I will address this in a later blog entry.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have also created individual mood boards to explain the four looks which will be featured in the trend. As well as addressing the trend I have also tried to relate it to the month it will be representing. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is for the first look I want to create for the trend. There needs to be a clear transition between August and September. I want to start the trend off with a clear change in colour so I have decided to use the image which has the electric blue running through it. This mood board which I have created combines the refined and smudged. As it is going to feature colour I thought it would be important to reference the graffiti research. I have decided to put the two brightest colours into this look, the blue and orange. This will therefore create a brighter image so I do not want the style of photography to be too dark. I do not want much shadowing in this image either as it is a bright bold look. I do want the model to come across as confident with an arrogant expression. I want the hair to have lots of texture as the make-up will be sharp edged. I feel that a lighter hair colour would look better for this to show all of the highlights in the hair. The make-up will feature the electric blue streak running across the eye. I have decided to use the eyes as they are the centre of expression and this bolt of colour across the lid will reflect the striking intense look. The lips will be painted in an orange tone. It will be clean but with a smudged edge. This represents the imperfect part of the trend. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgecDLIa_kQQXUsrZvFxC02izVPD_LLgvAKmClTjTZn12FN4RJelfYPGQmly2Dv8iMxog1uvSKCMWZxn9LDZDkS7qbwFizJQ5VEIZuLTpmcR3tO0wOFbUWlKA_OCn7hYuozM7_i3Oo_qxJN/s1600/trend+3+look+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="448" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgecDLIa_kQQXUsrZvFxC02izVPD_LLgvAKmClTjTZn12FN4RJelfYPGQmly2Dv8iMxog1uvSKCMWZxn9LDZDkS7qbwFizJQ5VEIZuLTpmcR3tO0wOFbUWlKA_OCn7hYuozM7_i3Oo_qxJN/s640/trend+3+look+1.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The looks are starting to get more intense as the months pass by. The next mood board I have created will be for October. I have decided to draw upon the orange tone for this month as it is at the heart of Autumn and nature is full of different shades of Orange. I want to work orange into the hair, so I have decided to create the orange roots, a flawed imperfection. As I am drawing upon looks which are tried to be avoided I have linked this idea into my make-up looks. The eye liner will be not near to the eye line but instead shifted out of place. The rest of the face will be a wash of one tone. In order for me to achieve this look and make it affective I will need to source a model with dark long hair and a pale skin tone. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As this looks is going to be darker I want the mood to be more serious and mysterious like a dark wood. I will show this throught the models expression and through light shadowing. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="448" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLwPkRN_gtXIhG137XWacz8yf4pTEBJ26L1TAB9IfG9mVwhtES8QfvRuiJntzxhQXQTDMMf7_JOO3S8F68_Yoq6ZWKnQZObvUnUeRJe-85MJMHdMuh_y75HuX1bL3RSzOeQjYzfea0Lomo/s640/trend+3+look+4.jpg" width="640" />The third look for this trend will also draw upon the orange tone. This time the orange will not be as intense, more of a fading to burnt out orange and a transition into burgundy. I want to do this so the look continues to get darker and moodier. As I am into the heart of the trend it will reference the strongest aspects of the trend. I have linked this look to the darkness of a cemetery and the intensity of a blazing fire. The eyebrows will represent the strength of the flames and the eyes will be covered in a charcoal to show a deep strong feeling. I want this image to reference the wet slick hair so I am planning on styling the hair into a messy, greasy look. This is something which is often avoided by women with long hair as it looks dirty but I want to show a grungy attitude and look in this image. I think that a model with dark hair and darker eyes would best represent this months image. <img border="0" height="444" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxxqDwD9dDPjO59AVIsVvBHqPu5lxvgGpfv7ODHp3bGSd9Ocwi3ayg84x8Fc_10apRJ4f9MZMgDVWzN5EHSjDtcrZiB8cK3drYJJplAxOfuIGWoJ2FqU3waNCB0ADixeiOZ4oUrXJbArOs/s640/trend+3+look+2.jpg" width="640" /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the last look of the calendar and I want to be the darkest. I do want to reference the Christmas season so I am going to use a very dark red on the lips. The rest of the image will be focused around texture. I want the eyebrows to brushed upwards, hair back-combed into a styled mess and large eyelashes to be applied under the eyes. All of these design elements are usually avoided. Women seek for tidy, groomed eyebrows, hair is kept tidy and sleek and if eyelashes are going to be applied, they would be on top of the eyelid and near the lash line. The purpose is to create a 'wrong' image. This relates to my trend in that people like to fit the 'look' but this trend is about rebellion and creating a new statement. As the image is all about texture I would prefer to use a model with blonde hair to show up all the different highlights within the hair, I would also want them to have full lips for the red lipstick and defined cheekbones to represent the strong look. The model will need to look determined and confident within her look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To reflect the look I would like to use a darker lighting set up, so there are shadows cast. This will show a more sinister side to the trend. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These looks have all taken reference from the trend and what is going on in today's society. Although they link to today they will also fit in with the calendar for 2014 as the ideas in the trend will still exist. For example the chances are that graffiti will be around the UK cities, adolescents will still rebel and the majority will still seek to conform with the set look. It will be even more relevant in 2014/15 as the style seekers will be starting to realise that they want to look individualistic in their style </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The trend is relevant to not only the consumer and beauty industry, it also links in with fashion, architecture, fabrics and other industry's. They would able to reference the same colours, use the idea of clashing ideas, causing purpose made errors and pairing opposites together. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that this trend fits in with the calendar and the other two trends. There is a clear difference in ideas between all three but they also relate to each other. They all reference London and iconic places within Britain and the designs created are all innovative and experimental looks which can be filtered down to be worn by the public. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that all my trends have proven that I have carried out excellent investigation skills into my research as I have used both primary and secondary sources to back up what I am saying. I believe I now have and show an advanced critical understanding of trends. </span>marie-hopehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369695260628009470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013267073713001316.post-60656246388604110572012-05-03T07:39:00.004-07:002012-05-07T06:18:53.509-07:00trend 3 relating to hair and makeup<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have found some make-up and hair images which I like which I feel links back to my trend. I want to draw upon the idea that things things have been destroyed and destructed. Make-up and hair that once looked neat but now it has been destroyed or has been done incorrectly. These are some images which offer inspiration into the looks. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This image instantly reminded me of fire and the flames which might have been seen at the London riots. It also looks like the eye shadow has been applied over board so that the person was careless however it is honed back to being refined by having a carefully applied lip.I like the colours in this make-up design. The oranges would work within the trend I am creating. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I selected this image for the hair. The hair looks as if it has been messed up and possibly got wet by the rain. The hair looks as if it has not been placed but splattered to the face in an unpredictable manner. I would like to use a dishevelled or destroyed hair design within the calendar. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are several elements to this image in which I like. Firstly the way the hair looks like it has been messed up. It could quite possibly been tied back neatly in a bun, but as the day has gone on it is starting to fall loose and this is something which traditionally we do not want happening. I also like the colours within the image, the burnt orange/bronze which is painted contrasts the pale white skin of the model. Lastly I like the way the paint has been applied, it purposely looks sloppy and gives an unrefined look. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I went on to look at orange make-up. I strongly believe that the orange works well against a pale complexion. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love this make-up design! The way the colour has been applied to the eyebrows instead of the eyelids could be considered as a mistake. The darker tone has been applied to the eyelids. Often eyebrows are darkened not lightened and there is often the mistake that people pencil in the wrong colour eyebrows. I like how the rest of the make-up has been left natural so all focus is upon the eyes. The brown eyes really stand out against the dark lid and orange brow. This is something I will consider when selecting my models. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This image reminded me of the graffiti which has been referenced in the previous blog entry. The colours have been overlapped and put together in an unpredictable way. I also like the hair style of this model. The way it is sleek at the sides but then extremely messy on-top of her head. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I then went back to looking at using alternative colours on the face. I came across this Illamasqua image. I like the idea of making the eyebrows lighter rather than darker as this is something which is not usually done, done to make a statement. A rebel to stereotypical beautiful make-up. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I really liked the colours in the Illamasqua image so looked into turquoise make-up and I found this. I love the 'pop' of colour and the rest of the make-up left natural. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The colours of the overall image initially drew me to this. I also like the way her hair looks wet but her make-up is still untouched. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This image clearly shows that the make-up has been destroyed. I like the smudged lip.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Again this image was selected due to its smudged lip. I like the way half of the lip has been neatly applied and then the side has been smudged out of line. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This image was selected for the eye-liner. Although it has been neatly applied, it looks as though it has not been applied in the correct way. It is an exaggeration of a top lid liner which traditionally would be applied near the lash line. I would like to break the traditions of make-up for this trend!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I like this grungy style and feel it would relate to my trend. The hair in this image looks greasy and untamed, something which is not traditionally wanted. People seek for their hair to look clean and brushed. The image reminds me of 1990's grunge. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This was another image which was selected because of the hair. It looks back combed and messy but in a styled way. The hair has lots of texture and contrasts well with the sleekness of the rest of the make-up The dark lip adds to the grungy look along with the lighting. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> This is another image selected because of the smudged lip. I like the way everything else in the image is so clean cut and neat as it really makes the lips stand out and make it look like a mistake. As it has been highly smudged it is clear that this is the make-up artists intention. I need to be careful with creating this idea. If I am creating a smudged lip, it needs to look intentional. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The messy plaits within this image add to the dishevelled them I am looking for As I have already used plaits within one of my designs in the calendar, I do not want to repeat this. I also like the way that colour has been ran through the hair. The colour looks like that is the dyed colour and it has grown out to show her brown roots. Roots are also something that women are conscious about having and looked upon as un-tastily. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I liked the idea of using the roots in the hair to showcase the breaking traditions idea. I came across this image and really like the way the colours have been swapped so the colour of the roots is the unnatural and the colour of the natural hair is at the bottom. I also like the contrast between the orange and the dark hair. If I was to decide to use this idea I would want to use a model with dark hair. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I decided on the colour palette first for this trend, something which I have not done for the previous two trends but when reading how to construct a trend package, colour was one of the first parts to address. I was finding that I was struggling again to decide on a new concept to base my trend and I thought this would be a good starting place. I also did this because there was a trend of colours which ran through my images from London. I noticed hints of certain colours emerging in many street shots of London. These were a few</span><br />

The main shades were greens, reds, oranges, and aquas. These clashy colours spurred me to look into clashing elements. </span><br />

They comment that 'All of the time graffiti has been the truest illegal art form to reach acclaim and be shown on the sides of trains, city walls, and museums'. This shows that graffiti stands as a rebellion against society and although illegal it is ranked as art. It may not appeal to all but there are those that appreciate and understand that the graffiti artists 'set the rules, they pioneer the spots and the styles. They are the true </span><span style="line-height: 14px;">trend-setters</span><span style="line-height: 15px;"> for all to see'. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This quote links back to what I am creating. I want to be able to create a trend setting piece so I feel it is important to reference trend setting art. One graffiti artist comments that 'Sometimes the ideas come spurting. Music is an important source of inspiration. It awakens creativity . Environments can also be inspiring'. I believe I have reference music (song lyrics above) to help create my trend. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lastly graffiti is explained as 'spray destruction'. I like the idea of using broken and no longer perfect elements. I saw lots of things that relate to this idea whilst in London so I believe this will be the bases for my third trend. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whilst finding this book I also came across the 'Banksy wall and piece' book. Banksy is a notorious grafitti artist across Britain and the rest of the world. His art is often recognised for making statements about current and un-adressed political issues as well as creating humorous images.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Often the colours used in graffiti art are bright and bold as they are meant to stand out. They are also put together to clash and make each part a contrast rather than a similarity. This is something I want to draw upon. I want to put colours together which are not thought to work; use colours on the opposite sides of the colour wheel. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I would like to use the colours similar to in this image. Reds, oranges an pale blues as i feel although they clash they also work together.These colours would work well for the Autumn/Winter season as they are darker as they are a reflection of what is going on at this time of year. Orange reflects the nature and how everything is turning orange and brown as it is dying, reds reflect the Christmas season which is so important in Britain's culture, and the blue reflects the cold weather and mood of the trend. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is important to create this trend as it shows a reflection of what is going on in Britain today and how it can influence the way we style ourselves. Like graffiti, style is a way of expressing ourselves and by creating looks which link to this trend will show that inspiration from anywhere can influence the way you look. This will hopefully teach the consumer something and lead them onto creating their own style ready for 2015. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I believe I have plenty of research to now go on with the trend and come up with a final decision and start to relate it to beauty. There needs to be plenty of research to back up what I am saying and show to the consumer that the calendar has fashion authority. When creating a trend in industry this type of research would also have to be done. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is a clear relation between all of my trends for the year 2014. It is important for them all to be different but have some connection so that they flow on from one another. The first trend explains things being shattered and everything branching out from the epicentre into a dispersed bleed. This then links onto the next trend where it relate to circles and how they can be related back to life. The will explain about modern day life in Britain and how rebellion creates a new destructive look. This links back to the first trend. It is also important to have flow and some similarities for each season.</span><br />

The studio which I had booked was the only one which was unoccupied. I knew from this that this was going to be a more challenging shoot, just from knowing that we would be limited to what equipment was available.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When I got into the studio I realised how small it was and also there was no back drop AND the wall was not suitable to shoot up against as it was badly marked. This was a real problem, I didn't know what to do! As there was no chance of changing studio it was realised that I was going to have to make do with what I had and try and find a way around the background.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When setting up the lighting I found an enormous soft box which would be big enough to use as a white background. I decided that this was going to have to be my only option. I finally set up the studio but it was very cramped.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I asked my 'buddy' to come along and watch and assist if she wanted to. I felt that I was going to have a smooth running shoot therefore I thought it would be a beneficial thing to have my 'buddy' there but the situation with the bad studio threw me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Marie the model turned up exactly on time and I started the make-up right away. Within a few minutes I had a phone call off the other model, Elizabeth, to say that she had also arrived. This through me totally as she was not due for another hour and half. I sat Elizabeth down and told her that she would have to wait until I was done applying the design on Marie. Knowing that there was a model waiting for me whilst I was working on another model was pressurising.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When my 'buddy' arrived I asked her to help remove Elizabeth's make up and nail varnish and told to prep the skin ready for when I was to work on her.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Marie's hair and make-up went according to plan and she was ready in time for when Magdalena was ready to shoot. The only amendment which I had to make was that I had to trim the wig down in order to fit Marie's head and face.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When Magdalena arrived she was not impressed with the studio, putting her in quite a bad mood. I felt it was important to try and lift this in order for her to enjoy the shoot and get good images. She commented that she just wanted to finish this project now as it had been going on for a number of weeks. This was a little disheartening as I knew that she no longer wanted to do the shoots. I carried on working in a professional manner and tried not to let it knock my confidence. I assume that these sorts of situations happen all the time when working out in industry. You may not get on with the photographer but you act professional and do not let it interfere with the job.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I showed Magdalena a reference image of what I was wanting from the shoot with Marie and told them to carry on shooting while I started the makeup on Elizabeth. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The make-up that was initially planned went how I wanted it but afterwards I was not sure whether it linked strongly enough to my trend and mood board. The colours were supposed to be quite washed out and in shades of pink and white but instead the image looked quite fierce and bold. I was also not happy with the way I had styled the hair so I decided to change it. I thought that if I had the hair down and natural it would help soften the image. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that the shoot with Marie went well. She was taking instruction and the reference image clearly showed how I wanted the image and this was looking like it had been achieved. When Magdalena was happy that she had some good images the models swapped. I got my Buddy to help remove the models hair and make up while I focussed on helping set up the shoot for Elizabeth. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Even though I had given clear instruction on what I wanted, I wasn't happy with how the shoot was going, even though there were images as reference the model wasn't able to get the look wanting to be achieved and also I felt the hair and makeup design was not the strongest. I immediately knew that I needed to re-shoot this months look with a different model and a stronger makeup and hair design. This was extremely frustrating as this model was the most expensive model I have paid for and I do not feel she was able to achieve what was wanted from the shoot. </span><br />

As Magdalena was only happy to edit two images per model it meant that I was restricted to having four images altogether. As she had already uploaded some edited images that she selected to her Facebook I decided to have three images of Steph selected and one from the shoot with Laura.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Magdalena was extremely quick with getting the images back to myself once I had requested which ones I wanted and how I wanted them to be done.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These were the edits that she provided me with:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I already had preview of what the images of Stephanie looked like from what was on Magdalena's Facebook. This was the image which she uploaded for herself. It is not a relevant image to what I want to use within my calendar.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/470557_341827475853221_244433402259296_885866_2115600873_o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="449" src="http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/470557_341827475853221_244433402259296_885866_2115600873_o.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For my edits Magdalena gave me the option of having the edits with the glitter effect over the top of them. Although this is a nice effect I want the images to be simplistic and have the image as the main focus so I will not be using any images with this affect on.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I am happy with the images and she has done a good job. My only query is the editing. The skin has been airbrushed so much that all texture has gone from the skin. I like the way she has intensified the blue underneath the eye as it makes the image stand out and is extremely successful. I think that the blue really makes the brown eyes really striking in the image. I am not so pleased with the way she has edited the hair. She has blurred out the edges of it to make it look more rounded in shape but this has lost the definition to the design. My other concern with the image is that when the image is blown up bigger the lips look dry. This is an issue which has been seen before. I think I have now learnt to not use the certain lipstick as it does not photograph well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I believe that the image links into my trend and mood board strongly. The colours within the mood board are the exact ones in the colours of the eye shadow. The hair is very rounded in shape and acts as like a halo to the light mood of the trend. I believe the pose and expression of the model also backs this. I feel that the beads in the images work better than the earrings. If the hair was not such a styled classic look then I think the earrings would have worked better but because it is all very sleek, the earrings are too much. The beads relate to the London eye and the rows of circles within my trend making it a stronger connection compared to the earrings.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am glad that I had some alternatives on the jewellery as it allowed some choice. I feel that because I was well planned the shoot ran smoothly and some strong images were achieved. I felt like I had plenty of time to achieve the look and we were able to get many images allowing more selection of images.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is very little that I need to change with this image. In order to relate stronger to my trend and mood board I have decided to put a blue filter over the image.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that this image has demonstrated what I am able to achieve with my design and make-up skills. It shows that I am able to style the hair and make-up as well as showing in the calendar that I can do natural hair styles and highly styled up-do's.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have also received the image of Laura. I knew the sorts of image I would be receiving as Magdalena had already edited some images and put them up on her Facebook</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This was the images that she edited for myself and sent over:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Magdalena also gave me the option to use the same image with a glitter filter over the top</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am pleased with the image but it is a shame that the edges of the hoops of hair have been cut off. I feel that the image would have looked more complete if the whole of the hair was captured. I am pleased that selected a front on view as it has allowed the hair to be showcased and does not distort the shape of the hoops.I think that the pose also works well as it is a perfectly symmetrical image. By the hands being at slightly different heights allows the image to not look odd from being too symmetrical. It is also a shame that the model is not perfectly framed. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am pleased that the skin does not look so heavily air brushed on this image as it looks more natural. I am also pleased that the nails were painted for this image as the hands are involved and the nails fit in with the colour scheme of the trend and mood board. I am also pleased that I used a black eye shadow in the socket of the eyes as it has added some depth to the make-up. and not made it look so flat. I believe that the erasing out the eyebrows was successful in this image as it has allowed the gold to go on smoothly and make it appear that the model did not have any eyebrows. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Learning an effective way to block out the eyebrows was learnt from the Alex Box demonstration. Although I already knew how to do the technique, watching Alex do it showed a much simpler way of doing it with a toothbrush and flat brush. I put to use the technique and feel it has worked much better than the previous technique.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel this is one of the strongest images which relate to my second trend so far. The hair clearly represents the roundedness and 'circle of life' theme I am relating too. It also is very similar to the Olympic rings which are discussed within the trend. The images used within the trend mood board clearly relate to the final outcome as they are all very similar. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am pleased with how the image has turned out as it proves that I am able to achieve complicated hair designs. As with the other image, I think if I was not prepared then the image would have turned out totally different, and weaker. By creating the hair piece for this image before hand it saved me a lot of time and work. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When going to a tutorial to show my images I explained to the tutor that I was happy with the image but I would have liked to have had all of the hair included. They told me that I would be able to recreate this look by using Photoshop. As I did not know how to do this they showed me and I have gone away and edited the image to create this look. I have also made the model in the centre of the image to add to the symmetrical look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is what I have now managed to create. I am extremely pleased with the results and will be using this image in my calendar. I am pleased with the way I have been able to achieve this, feel my Photoshop skills have now advanced and I have now shown excellent efficiently utilised IT systems and software appropriate to the disciplining. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Although this hair look which is unlikely to be recreated by the consumer it will hopefully give them inspiration with their own hair, whether this is by using plaits, dying their hair an auburn colour or by styling their hair in a complicated up-do. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The design has made me feel a lot more confident with styling hair. Without preparation this would have been a lot of work. In future I will contemplate whether the hair needs to be styled on the day or can a hair piece be a created. I understand this is probably what happens when in industry and time is limited to carry out a photography shoot. I had not previously used products other than hair products and accessories in the hair but it now opens up my eyes to the fact that anything can be used. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From carrying out this shoot I believe I have met most of the learning outcomes, especially '</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">'Employ appropriate materials, techniques and methods in relation to styling as a discipline, with skill and imagination, whilst observing<b> </b>good working practices</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 8px;">.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">'</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When visiting the tutors I not only showed them my images but also mentioned the fact that I was finding it harder and harder to source models. I commented that I had contacted the Bournemouth agency which was previously explained and had no feedback. They advised me on other agencies to contact within London. I took notes and when later getting home I gave a telephone to them as this way I knew that I would be able to get an answer. A few that I spoke to commented that they were unable to help me. The other was very helpful and got me to send over an email of what I was after. As soon as I mentioned that I was wanting to carry out the photography shoots within Southampton, this was where the problem arose. They commented that they were only willing to test within London so were unable to help me. This gave me little hope for contacting other agencies. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Friday 16th March: </u>I have found it extremely difficult this week to try and book photography studios for the following week. I think that most people have realised they now need to shoot and have gone excessive with booking studios. Whenever I have previously booked a studio I have not had a problem but they always get fully booked. On the day of the shoot I have been one of the only people down in the studios, proving that people book them and don't turn up. This is extremely frustrating as there has been times where I have wanted to use a certain studio to work in but it has already been booked. As a result of the studios being so booked up I have had to change the day</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> of the shoot to a Wednesday (21st). I was lucky in the fact I was able to get a studio but I was not able to pick which one I wanted. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am finding the search for models really challenging as I only able to shoot during the week it limits who is available. As I also have a limited budget it restricts who I can ask. I have found that my limit for model fees is starting to stretch in order to find models. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have been able to find two models for the shoot on Wednesday but the one is costing me £70.00 due to her having to travel from Watford and she wants to be paid for the shoot. I do not want to be paying this much for models but feel I am having too. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The other model I have been very lucky with as she approached me through Model Mayhem as she was interested in working with me and wanted to build her portfolio. This allowed her to be on a 'TFP' basis which balanced out the cost of the two models. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The two models which I have found are Elizabeth Day and Marie Osman. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Elizabeth Day :</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I had so far not used a blonde model within my calendar I thought it was the next model to source. As the look was in pink tones I thought I would be able to work it through the blonde hair as well. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am pleased Marie Contacted me as it allows me to use another darker skinned model within the calendar. I have been emailing her quite a lot and she has notified me that she has a weave but it needs re-doing. I thought that this may be a problem and it may give me the opportunity to use a wig. This will also showcase my wig skills. I did not want to use a wig which is going to look like I am just covering up the models own hair or make it look realistic. If I was going to be using a wig I wanted it to make a statement. I also needed it to fit in with my trend. As the trend has very light colours I thought I would find a wig that is light in colour (either blonde or one of the key colours). </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whilst discussing this with a friend, they informed me that they have a pale pink wig cut into a bob and a blonde one. I took both and came up with the make-up design. I decided on using the pink wig as it was more unusual and would fit perfectly within my trend. I felt it would also highlight the darker skin tone in contrast to the pale wig. As the wig was going to create a statement in the look I felt it was important to not over dramatise the make-up. I needed to link the look back to the trend so I stuck with using pinks within the design. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I realised that I did not have a strong enough pink for the look I would be doing next so I had to go out and buy a strong pigment palette of pinks. From previous experience I have found that pinks are not always that intense on darker skins, so in order for them to be bright the pigment needs to be high. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Monday 19th March:</u> As it is the last week before Easter, I would really like to get one more shoot in before we break up. This would then mean that I only have to worry about carrying out one more photo shoot. I was also aware that Magdalena was only available during an evening . This made would make it very difficult to find time to shoot with her and as I was wanting to have finished shooting by the end of Easter it would mean having to find another photographer. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I really did not want to do this as it meant risking my last two images of the calendar. I did not know another photographer and I was aware that I could find one but they may not produce very good images. I knew that working with Magdalena has been challenging as finding a balance with what she wants and what I need has had to been discussed and compromised. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have booked another studio for the Friday 23rd March. As it is the last day before the Easter Holidays there has been plenty of slots left available. I have booked the larger studio as it worked well previously. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am aware that this shoot will be for my next trend forecast and I have not come up with an idea as to what it may be. Before I can scout models I need to decide on my third trend! I do not have much time and I do not want to rush the forecast so it looks like it is going to be a busy week researching and documenting. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I set up in plenty of time and arranged the backdrop and lighting to how I wanted it to be shot. I was in a different studio which worked out better as it was a lot bigger and catered better for two models.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Laura arrived first and I started doing her hair and make-up. Within about 20 minutes of me starting Stephanie arrived, 40 minutes earlier than I had asked her to arrive. I continued to style Laura while Stephanie sat and took of her make-up and painted her nails.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The make-up and hair design for Laura went exactly how I wanted it to. The hair piece went into her hair well and I plaited some of Laura's own hair to disguise the fact that it wasn't her own hair. The hair colour was a very similar match, any colour difference could be later changed on Photoshop afterwards. The only issue which I did have was that the hoops were maybe a little too large and that meant that they sat quite tall on top of her head. If I was to do it again I would probably make the rings smaller. Also, because they were so large, it meant that they kept on falling forwards, so just before Laura stepped in front of the camera I tried to fix the hair with plenty of grips, this helped a little as long as she did not move her head too much. I feel that although I faced some problems with the design, I was still able to find a solution and as a result achieved several of the learning outcomes. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was also pleased with the application of Stephanie's make up. Because I had used the oil colours it made the blue very intense in colour and show up on camera well. The only problem with using oil colours was the fact that it did no dry and because it was underneath the eyes it kept on creasing, something which I then had to keep amending. The hair piece on Steph's hair was also difficult to fix into place. I had perhaps made the hair piece a little too long for her head and it meant that it was a challenge to make it perfectly symmetrical on her head.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When Magdalena arrived she approved of the studio that we was working in and advised me to try and shoot in there again. I did find that she was trying to influence me on the way I should photograph my images. She wanted to use a different backdrop to what we had already been using but as I had explained the images needed some consistency and when previously re shooting one of my images on a black backdrop, it didn't work well within the calendar. She accepted what I wanted but made it clear that she wanted some more variety to the images.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Magdalena started shooting with Laura whilst I finished styling Steph's hair. I did not mind this as I had given clear instructions of what I wanted and as I was still present I was able to jump in whilst they were shooting. This also meant that Steph did not have to sit around whilst I was shooting, time keeping was kept efficient.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Laura had to leave earlier than planned which cut the shooting time short. But I felt the images were strong enough and was happy to help her pack up and remove her make-up and hair piece.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I had bought lots of jewellery as I was not sure how it would look on camera, we decided to swap around with the jewellery and see what would work best. The earrings which were initially used gave a very classy look, almost too classy and not fashion looking enough so it was decided with the agreement of the photographer to swap to using a pearl necklace. This worked a lot better and allowed more variety to the images as it could be moved around.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I feel the shoot went well and we managed to achieve some strong looks. I have decided that using my laptop during a shoot is extremely helpful as music can be played which makes everyone feel more relaxed as well as being able to receive and view the images straight away. </span>marie-hopehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369695260628009470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013267073713001316.post-48794994566871372392012-05-02T06:04:00.003-07:002012-05-06T10:54:37.385-07:00waiting for edits and planning 5th shoot<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It took me a few days to select two images of Toni to edit due to other commitments.I feel I have now managed to balance working on this project and carrying out other commitments. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have now sent off the images I would like. There were so many images that I liked it was very difficult to choose but with the help of the Tutorials, they helped to advise which would be best.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have now had the edits back from Magdalena and I am pleased with the results. She has also edited some of the images for herself and uploaded them on the internet for me to see.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These were the images which were edited for me:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Magdalena knew what my trend consisted of due to me communicating my ideas and showing her my mood boards so she has decided to add a glitter effect over the images as another alternative for me. I do like the effect but I feel it detracts slightly from the images so I have decided to not use them within my calendar.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I like the images which have been done for her portfolio so I have requested for them to be sent over to me so I have more options to choose from in my calendar. I think this image relates to the consumer because they too will be able to recreate these looks. They are also attractive image in which the consumer will hopefully like and enjoy having up on their wall for a month. The look clearly references the trend and links back to the mood boards, something which the consumer will be able to see. This will then make the trend forecast more feasible and likely to be believed as fashion authoritative.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are several elements to these images which I feel work well. I am happy with the way the image portrays a very soft and content mood, this is something which was wanted and has been achieved. I was not expecting to have such harsh shadows in the image but i feel it adds to the image and creates some variation to the images. The shadows also relate to the season that it is representing. As the lighting is a lot harsher during the summer months, shadowing is increased and I believe my image show this. I am also pleased with the simplicity of the image. The hair and makeup is kept very simple but is still able to show some variety to the calendar and showcase my makeup and hair skills. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am not so happy with how the lips look in the images. The image is so crisp that it shows all the detail in the lips. They look dry and a little flakey. I believe this is due to the lipstick which was applied. It was a matt lipstick and almost dried the lips out further. If I was to change the image and do it again I would have prepped the lips better and added a slight gloss over the top of the lipstick. So that this was not so noticable in the images, once I got the images back from Magdalena I opened up the images in Photoshop and smoothed them out using the 'Gaussian Blur' tool.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am also not so happy with the colour of the nail varnish. I had intended on using a pale pink/ purple nail varnish but it was forgotten to be applied when styling Toni. As she already has nail varnish on in a pale yellow colour it does not stand out as being odd but they were not as I intended and do not fit in with my trend. I did try to change the colour of the nails in Photoshop but I did not think it looked effective once done, so I have decided to leave the nails as they are. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The part of the image which I like the most is the hair. I feel it has worked very well in creating a softer look and the waves link back well to the trend. As the model had very short hair there were limitations as to how much it could be styled. I feel I have been able to mould the hair into a style which is creative and fits in well with the makeup. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The images link in well with my trend as the overall colouring fits the colour scheme, the image also submits the correct mood and feel of the look, and also the hair and makeup design link to the roundness and circles part of the trend.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With relation to how the images link to the mood board I think it mainly corresponds. I think that the image is a little more pink than intended but it still fits in with my trend. The sequins were applied to the eyes and the hair design is similar to how it was portrayed in the mood board.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I am very happy with the results from the shoot. I am very pleased that I was able to convince Toni to shoot with me as I think her face fits in well with the calendar as well as the look. I think that consumers will be able to relate to her face as she is attractive but still 'girl next door'. There were no alterations to the shoot and everything wanted to be achieved, was (except the nails). I believe that this was due to my good time management and organisation. Without testing the larger sequins could have been used and not worked as well. I feel that I have addressed the ' Uses appropriate materials and production processes relevant to the styling, makeup and hair design industry' as I have ensured that all working practises and design were carried out professionally, the images are exactly what I wanted and I felt the shoot went smoothly. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Magdalena informed me that she is going to be working away for the next few days so is going to be unavailable to shoot on the following Tuesday, however she did say towards the end of the week she would be free. I have decided to make an amendment to the shoots schedule and try to get two models to shoot for the Thursday evening. With the number of looks becoming smaller, the specification for models is becoming tighter. By having a few extra days it is going to allow me extra time to find models as well as decide on a look and practice it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tuesday 13th March:</span></u><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have been able to find two models available to shoot on Thursday. As I will be using two models I have allowed myself an extra hour to plan and prepare and get the first model in. I do not want the shoot to be as stressful as my first due to me feeling rushed for time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have notified my photographer of the models I am intending to use and confirmed the shoot. She also notified me that she had planned to work with one of the models before but due to illness she had to cancel. This has given me some reassurance that Magdalena is happy with my model selection.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The first model that I intend to use is Laura Jane Brockbank. Although she was found on Model Mayhem she was recommended by a friend that she was a good model. Laura is willing to work on a 'TFP' basis which is helpful to keeping my budget down.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Laura's look would be ideal for creating the design with the hair in rings as she has long hair which allows me to play around with the styling. She also has a very pale, flawless complexion with auburn hair which is not featured within my calendar as of yet.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The other model I intend to use is Stephanie Tanner.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/110224/03/4d66459618401.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/110224/03/4d66459618401.jpg" width="261" /></span></a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel Stephanie has a very striking face, with strong cheekbones and good skin I think she would be appropriate to my calendar. I have so far not used a model with brunette hair and brown eyes. I feel her face would work well with the blue look within my second trend. Blue can really bring out the brown in peoples eyes. She also has quite long hair so I would be able to be more creative with her hair design. From these images it is clear that Stephanie has a versatile face as she is able to do both natural and intense, darker looks. Stephanie is the model which Magdalena wanted to work with previously.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For constructing the looks there was a lot of preparation needed. Especially for Laura's look. I need to construct the hoops which are going to act as a frame to wrap the hair around.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Wednesday 14th March:</u> I asked my Dad to supply me with some flexible wire which would be used as the hoops in Laura's hair. He has got me some and I have cut and bent it into five different circles.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have tried to practise the hair on a friends head but I have come across a problem. I have realised that 1. the hoops which are interlinking are quite heavy due to the thickness and amount of wire and 2. the hair does not wrap around the hoops well enough to cover the wire. This is because there is not enough hair. This is something that I do not want to happen when I am styling Laura's hair. I have come to the conclusion that I need to buy extra hair and thread it through and around the wire and once this has been done then wrap Laura's hair around the structure to help it stay up. It is important that I buy hair that is going to match Laura's hair colour so that it looks like her hair.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before setting out to buy hair I have evaluated everything that I am going to need to buy for the shoot. I have decided to use gold eyelashes on Laura as it will add to the gold intensity and look like the entire eye has been painted. This means that I need to buy false eyelashes, and gold paint. I also need to buy products for Stephanie's styling. I am going to use jewellery to add to this look as I have not included it in the recent shoots. I am unsure of the exact style of jewellery but I feel that beads would link back to the mood board I have created. There is a picture of the London eye and this is like a string of beads.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also want to create a sculpted hair in Stephanie's look. I have not created a hair style up as of yet so I feel it is important to do this. I need to ensure that it is in-keeping with my trend so I want to create a rounded up-do. To create this I have decided to add volume by using a hair piece. I need to go and purchase the stockings and tissue to create the hair piece.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have now created Stephanie's hair piece and tested it on my own hair. It has taken myself hours to create Laura's hairpiece but I feel confident with how it has turned out. The only part of the design which is making me feel nervous is the fact that the hair colour is wrong. it is also quite unstable so it is going to be important to wrap and grip Laura's hair firmly around it to stop it from falling forward or back. I feel this is one of my most innovative hair designs so far and it will hopefully be able to showcase my skills as well as proving how the design links back to my trend and mood board. I believe I have definitely set a challenging objective which shows my initiative. </span><br />

<u>6th march:</u> Setting up in the photography studios has become something which I feel confident in doing. I set up a basic lighting kit and placed the lights in the same position as what Magdalena had used before. By keeping the lighting the same allows the images to have some consistency.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I did have some trouble with the backdrops. There were backdrops in the holders but in the wrong colours. I wanted very plain and neutral backdrops in white and grey as an alternative. I had given myself an hour to set up everything ready for when Toni arrived and this was fortunate as I had to ask one of the technicians to help me change the backdrops. I have now learnt how to change the back drops but as they are quite heavy I do not think I would be able to do it on my own.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
As Toni arrived on time it allowed me a fair amount of time to apply the practiced design and ensure that she was fully aware of what I wanted from the shoot. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I was hoping to use more than one model for this shoot, however I was unable to find another suitable model for one of my looks. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
The application of the sequins went well and how I had envisioned. I am pleased that I tested the look beforehand as practicing was very fiddly and deciding on where the sequins were placed was important. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Everything went well during this shoot. I finished the styling as Magdalena had finished setting up and this allowed plenty of time to shoot. The studios were very quiet so we were able to use whichever lighting equipment we wanted. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
As Magdalena had noticed when editing the images, the strapless top which the models were told to wear were difficult to edit out or the image needed to be cropped right down to cut out the top. She mentioned to try and get models to not wear the top at all. Toni was more than happy to go topless and as the studios were empty it was unlikely for anyone to disturb us. However I felt very awkward as I had not asked or pre warned Toni that the shoot may be topless. I knew if I was going to continue doing topless shoots it would make even harder to source models. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Overall the shoot went extremely well, I was able to see the images on my laptop and was pleased with the results and so was Magdalena. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
The budget for this shoot was not too expensive:</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Model fee: £10</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
false eyelashes £3.99</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Sequins £6.99</div>

<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
The images which she has edited for herself are not what I am looking for so I am going to stick with the ones I have chosen and at a later date decide the final image from the Nyane shoot to use in my calendar.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
These images are relatable to my calendar because they are a simple look that can easily be used as a reference for consumers to do there own make up. The images also fit in with the rest of the calendars looks because they are also head shots, the model is looking into the camera, and the style of photography and edits are the same.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I believe these images do showcase my skills in hair and make up design. Although the design is simple, I created the beaded fringe myself and I am able to prove that I can create flawless skin on different skin tones. I love the fringe and feel it has worked really well in the image. It shows the creative ideas and links back well to my trend and mood board. I have proven to myself that if I want a certain look, with enough planning it is achievable. I did doubt that I would be able to create this fringe but feel it has transformed my image from being a simplistic design to a striking one.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
There are not many elements to the image that I do not like. If I was to be picky with it, I would say that the hair design could have been stronger. As the hair was a different style to what was thought, the original plan of how I wanted the hair was irrelevant. I think I was able to create a good style but it could definitely have been neater and more refined.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I believe that the beads in the look fully relate to the roundness and circles in order part of my theme. The fringe creates a barrier between the model and the viewer, creating a slight sense of insecurity. The models pose is also closed in and as if she has a lack in confidence. The mood for this trend is very light and delicate and having this image look vulnerable I believe fits well.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I believe the look also fully relates to my mood board. The colours within the image reflect the same tones, the beads are a clear statement in the image and its delicateness is clearly shown through. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Although the photo shoot did not run smoothly I am extremely happy with the final images. I would not use this model again as she was so unreliable but I do believe she is a strong model. I think without the high organisation of myself, the image would have turned out totally differently. I knew exactly what I wanted to create and had practised gripping in the fringe, so I knew that this was going to work. I did feel a little rushed on time but as I only had one model booked for the time I had luckily allowed myself plenty of time. The model new exactly what I wanted to achieve and was able to take guidance making the time shooting more successful.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I have shown the images to my lecturers and they are happy with them and confident that they will fit in with my calendar. This was very relieving and creating a slight boost in confidence on what I can achieve.The one comment that they made on the image, was to lighten the one eye slightly to show more of the pupil. Instead of getting Magdalena to edit this small part I have decided to do this myself. Magdalena was also extremely pleased with the shoot and decided to use the image within her own portfolio. If a professional photographer is happy to use my images then it must be a sign that my images are up to a high standard.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
My lecturers also advised me to now start planning the way my images sit next to each other. I have started to do this and I believe this is helping me decide what works well and what does not. It also gives me an idea of what future looks need to be like, for example if there are two images where the model is turned to the left, then I know for the next shoot to try and get the model to face to the right. This allows me to then not create the same looks for all the images and allow variety to run through the calendar.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Magdalena did comment that she felt we had enough time to shoot two models in future as long as they were ready for when she arrived. I am now more confident that I would be able to achieve this and in future will plan to use two models in one shoot.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<u>Planning fourth shoot:</u></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<u><br /></u></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
The next shoot I have planned is for the following Tuesday (6th March). I have decided to try to stick to shooting on a Tuesday as this works well with my photographer and it allows myself to have the weekend to plan and practise the looks and if I need to do anything in the University the day before (such as booking the next weeks photo shoot in the studios) then I am able to do this.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I have managed to find myself another model for the next look. The model I have found is Toni Caroline who is a model on ModelMayhem. She is also a student at the University so this is more comforting that she is aware of the sort of shoot which will be taking place. She has also agreed to work on a TFP basis which is hugely helpful to my budget. Toni fits in perfectly for the purple look I want to create, she has short dark hair and a pale complexion, ideal for the purple look.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">

<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I have been shopping and now bought some sequins I think would work well in my design. It was important to get good quality sequins so that the look is professional looking. I do not want to bring the standard of make up and hair design down for the calendar. I am aware that the consumer is unlikely to want to stick sequins on their face when doing their own make up, but hopefully it will create inspiration into their own designs. For example the colour of the sequins may influence the consumer to use that colour eye shadow, or the shape in which the sequins have been applied may influence the shape of the eye shadow applied.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Whilst shopping I brought fresh eyelash glue to use to stick down the sequins and a range of different sequins in different colours and sizes. I was not sure which ones were going to work best on the face as I knew I was going to be sticking these to the eyes I needed them to sit flat. I was not sure whether the larger sequins were going to sit flat to the skin so i tested to see.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
One thing that I did notice whilst testing on the larger sequins was that 1 they did not sit flat to the skin, and 2 as they were very sheer in colour the glue showed through creating a patchy look. The sequins which worked best were the smaller ones which were flat in shape but were small enough that they could be layered on top of one another.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I aim to upload the test images at a later date.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<u>Sunday 4th March: </u>I have been notified by Toni that she is now unable to make the shoot as she is too busy. She would be happy to reschedule. I am not wanting to reschedule the shoot as I know it means cancelling and re organising with Magdalena, trying to rebook a studio and it also setting my project back. I have decided to hunt for another model.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<u>Monday 5th March: </u>I have been unable to find another model so I am debating cancelling the shoot. I have emailed Toni asking if she would re consider shooting if I was able to pay for her time. Toni would be a perfect model for this shoot as she has the specific looks I am after. I am waiting for a reply.</div>

I have now had a reply from Toni and we have agreed on a price and she is happy to do the shoot. RELIEF!!</div>
<br />marie-hopehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369695260628009470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013267073713001316.post-49032375391760222352012-04-16T08:00:00.001-07:002012-05-07T06:09:36.984-07:003rd shoot<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am now ready to carry out my first photoshoot of my second trend. I feel thoroughly researched and have now got a better understanding of how shoots are going to take place in the photography studios. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I have been working in the library to research and write this blog I have found it easier with booking studios as I can just pop in and block a slot out. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I booked a studio for the following Tuesday (21st February), presuming that as Magdalena had been able to make the Tuesday just gone, she would also be able to make this Tuesday. Unfortunately, when I asked her to shoot she said she would be unable to do this day. As I was so happy with her work from the previous shoot I have decided to continue using her for my other images. This way at least all my images will be consistent in style of photography and edits. This means I need to cancel this shoot and reschedule for when she is available. Magdalena mentioned that she would now only be able to shoot from 6pm onwards, last weeks shoot was a one off. This makes being on time when shooting even more important as I only have an hour and half for shooting time and if I want to use two models, Magdalena needs time to get some good images. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Although having Natasha as a back up photographer is a good option I am finding that if I'm not going to be using her as my main photographer for my project and I'm doing the make up for all hers, I'm creating myself a lot of extra work. I am also finding that Natasha's images are not benefiting me because the photography is not up to my standard and the models she is using are friends and are not creating striking looks which I would be happy to use in my portfolio. I have decided to cancel all arrangements with her. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After speaking to my lecturer in tutorials I explained that I had a problem with finding the models I wanted. They have now provided me with an agency in bournemouth to contact. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have sent them over an email asking to use models for tests, I have also attached a few images of the work I have so far created. Still waiting for a reply. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My lecturers have also advised to take my laptop in to a photo shoot so that I am able to view the images straight away, as they are being shot. By doing this it allows me to pick up on elements of the hair and make up which are not right. It also allows me to make a quicker selection of images to edit and I have all the original files. I feel that the tutor's feedback is very useful in allowing my images to be improved and I realise that it is important to attend every possible feedback session. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have booked the next shoot for Tuesday 28th February and confirmed with Magdalena. My task is to now find a model for this shoot. I have very specific looks for the images I want to create so finding models is very difficult. Without the help of ModelMayhem I think I would really struggle carrying out photo shoots with models, I think I would have to use people I know.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Friday: 24th February</u>: I have now managed to find a model suitable for one of the looks I am wanting to create. Although she is not relevant for the March look, I am still able to shoot a different look as I have planned them out in advance. Her name is Nyane and I am aware that she is a good model as she has modelled for a few people I know and they have all commented on how much of a good model she is. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She would be suitable for the beaded fringe look I want to create as she has a copper toned hair and she has a warm skin tone to highlight the golden tones in the make up. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now I have confirmed the model and photographer I can now plan and prepare for the shoot. As I have this week it has allowed me extra time to catch up with my blog and prepare for the next few shoots. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Saturday 25th February</u>: After spending the morning walking around town collecting the specific things I need for the shoot I have now bought all the beads, thread and netting needed to create the fringe. I have spent the rest of the afternoon and evening stitching it all together. It has been challenging, time consuming and fiddly to put together but I am pleased with the results and am excited to see what it is going to look like on Nyane. I feel i have pushed the boundaries in my design skills and I have managed to create an innovative piece that transforms my design. I also feel I have been imaginative in creating this piece as it look professional and also links back to my trend. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As the fringe is so heavily detailed I want to keep the rest of the makeup design quite simple. I aim to create a golden, glowing skin on Nyane by applying a sheer foundation and golden wash over the eyes. It is hard to test for this look as I do not know anyone with a darker skin tone to practise on. I have tested the fringe within my own hair and it works fine. Luckily the make up is a simple application so if any tweeks need to be made it should be easy to do so. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Wednesday 29th February</u>: The shoot with Nyane yesterday did not go as smoothly as planned. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I arrived an hour before her arrival to set up the photography studio so that it made it easy for Magdalena when she arrived. It would also mean that she would not have to spend the time doing the lighting set up when she could be shooting. Luckily I felt confident in being able to set up the studio as I had done it before and had benefited from the photography sessions earlier in the year. By me setting up the lighting it also allowed me to decide on the way I wanted the images lit. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When it got to 4pm (when Nyane was due to arrive) I rang her as she informed me she had no credit on her phone to ring me. When I rang she was just leaving college in Eastleigh which is a 20 minute train journey away. I was a little annoyed at the fact she was nowhere near, after her explaining she was going to be another half hour I contacted Magdalena and told her to not worry about rushing as I was going to be running about 45 minutes late. When I rang back Nyane half an hour later she explained she was just leaving the train station and she was going to walk to the University. I gave her 15 minutes to walk the journey. When I rang back she was in West Quay, by this time I was extremely irritated as it was clear she was not taking this seriously. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After waiting an hour and 10 minutes Nyane finally arrived. I purposely acted as if things were okay as I did not want to cause a tension for the shoot. When I went to take off her make up it became apparent how much she was wearing. I had previously asked her to come with minimal or no make up, no nail varnish and to bring a strapless bra. She not taken note of any of these things. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had to spend the next 10 minutes removing her make up which delayed the shoot even further. Luckily the make up design was quite simple and did not take too long to apply. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When it came to styling her hair she had clip in extensions which she did not want to remove. This meant that I had to recreate a look which I had not planned for. I was able to adapt by clipping the extra hair out of the way. The hair was also a different colour to what was explained on ModelMayhem. It was not copper but instead peach, I was still able to work with this colour and just adjust the colours in Photoshop. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When the adjusted design was finished, the look was pleasing and when she was in front of the camera Nyane was able to transform to create striking images. Magdalena was able to achieve the desired looks fairly quickly which was lucky as Nyane then announced that she would have to leave early. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall the shoot did achieve some good images but it did not go to plan and I would not count it as a successful shoot. There were many issues with this shoot which did enforce changes in the original plans and ideas but I was able to find a way around and as a result showed my initiative to finding an appropriate solution. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Magdalena was extremely pleased with the images which gave a little boost of confidence. </span>marie-hopehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369695260628009470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013267073713001316.post-68209770402015808182012-04-16T07:59:00.000-07:002012-05-07T06:06:02.034-07:00trend 2<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that now I have thoroughly researched I can now finalise my new trend. I am happy with the idea I have created but I do not think it is as strong as my previous.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have created an overall mood board which explains my trend as an image. I have decided to call the Spring/ Summer trend 'Idyllic Entirety'. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I want the trend to be more colourful with brights and washed out tones. The main colours in the trend are pinky purples, bluey greens and orangey golds. The theme is soft and romantic with no harsh edges and stark designs. Instead everything is delicate with allowance for movement. Layers are important to this trend as translucent objects become visible due to light and placement. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have selected these colours becasue I would class them as feminine tones. They are not intense but strong enough to not be classed as a pastel tone. They include some of the same colours as the Olympic rings. I also took inspiration from the images of London. I wanted to use warmer shades for the season so as the months pass the colours become warmer. The last look of the season will end in golds. I also wanted to draw upon Spring colours (shades which appear when in bloom) so pinks and purpes appeared quite often. Lastly I wanted to draw upon the blue and aqua seas that the summer holidays bring. I feel that all these colours gel well together and represent a softer feel to the trend. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The trend will start in brighter colours before fading out as the bright sun bleaches out the colours due to it being intense in the summer months. As it comes to the end of the trend the warmer tones such as golds and bronzes will shine through, ready in time for the autumn months.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From this mood board I then went on to create 6 more mood boards which relate to the hair and makeup for the months of Spring and Summer. The first was the most striking in colour and started the season off with a intense clear change to the previous season. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I selected blue as the starting off colour of the season, a colour related to the world, the sky and the sea. A deep meaningful colour with a calm mood which is what I wanted for this trend. The tone is a light bright colour which suggests a fresh, clear mood for the spring. It relates to the trend in that it is based around the soft circles within the trend. The hair is sculpted with sleekness but then opens up into its own softness to create its own shape. The makeup has a blue feature but a simplicity to the image. A purity, a focus upon natural beauty. I want to bring in accessories for this trend to add to the structural softness of circles. I like the idea of using earrings that hang delicately from the ears.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I would want the model to have pale toned skin and small soft features for this look.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am unsure of the layout of this mood board I like the idea and concept but am not sure the images portray strongly enough what I mean.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The next mood board I created was this.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I want to lead the blue onto softer more feminine tones which will reflect the romantic feel to the trend. The look will be more intense in colour by directing it at the pinks and purples in the colour scheme. The pinks and purples relate to the flowers and blossom appearing on the trees in time for spring. I want this look to represent a delicate flower so although the colours are more intense compared to the other images in this trend, the feel and mood is very soft. I also want the pinks and purples to show the character being in the first stages of love and where life is a whirlwind. The model is in a dreamlike state and the lips are full and pink. With the hair I plan to have a slightly rounded style, whether this is in styled shapes or into a rounded cut, I have not decided yet.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Relating back to the Idyllic Entirety trend, the soft dreamy mood and warming tones relate to the roundness of the trend. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The ideal model for this trend will have large rounded eyes, full lips and a skin tone that will highlight and work well with the pinks and purples. I like the idea of using a black skinned model as I would like to use a variety of different skinned and looking models to add some variation to the calendar.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This next moodboard is for the hight of the Spring Summer season. I want this image to be the most washed out in colour but have a very warm, gentle feel. It is the look that represents harmony. The image will have colour but in very subtle washes. This will be the most natural of all of my images. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The main colours within this look are nudes, aquas and purples. I have decided to use these colours because although the aqua and violets are at opposites on the colour wheel they still work in harmony together. The colours suggest a very calm, relaxed mood something that is and should be felt as the warmth of the sun shines down onto our skin. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In relation to the trend, the look will represent the dream. Where everything is happy and perfect. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The hair and makeup design will be very simple with easily achievable looks. The hair will have soft curls which link back to the circles of the trend. The makeup will have washes of colour on the skin so the natual nude skin tone shines through. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I want the model to have blonde hair and very small doll like features to help relect the soft feminine look. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The style of photo will have a warm filter and be very soft, showing a comfortable warm skin. There will be no shadows upon the face as the model is reflecting a fresh faced natural look.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyjflaDSQtYSpCDLdwgR612uR-yjY6d_pdMgpd52QMoK2DzTUBqrLISC486kcBYHYplNY206fDBXHG3SNyUbaYB9SlS5BP1hOUactMzH0nCwCHVcmo5kg8SegLrgBcHPAq-KN6ho7YRvkX/s1600/trend+2+look+2.jpg" imageanchor="1"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="448" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyjflaDSQtYSpCDLdwgR612uR-yjY6d_pdMgpd52QMoK2DzTUBqrLISC486kcBYHYplNY206fDBXHG3SNyUbaYB9SlS5BP1hOUactMzH0nCwCHVcmo5kg8SegLrgBcHPAq-KN6ho7YRvkX/s640/trend+2+look+2.jpg" width="640" /></span></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The next look follows on well from the previous, it will have subtle hints of colour but a little more pink and purple. The colours of this look will relate to the sweet floral perfume which is floating in the air. Again I want the look to be very soft with delicate facial expressions and poses. It will still have a washed out feel but with a little more depth. This may be brought in through lighting. I like the idea of playing around with shadows for this look so although the make up design will be simple and natural there will be a overpowering scent casting a shadow upon the face. The sun light is also much more powerful during the summer, casting harsher shadows. As this look will be for the first month of summer I want to really draw upon this. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The make up is very simple but with flattened circles stuck to the face. I Like the idea of using sequins to create this look. I would like to use them around the eye to create a new form of eye shadow. By placing the sequins around the eye in a rounded curve it relates back to my trend as well as linking in with the mood board. I had contemplated what product to use but settled on sequins as they are flat, easy to get hold of and easy to use on the face. Glitter would also work but from previous experience it is very difficult to work with as it goes all over the place and it can also be looked upon as looking a little amateur. I want to create a classy look for this month with the hair slicked into waves, like the sea, washing upon to the face. This relates to my soft wash of roundness of the trend. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The choice of model for this look is very important. They would need to have dark short hair and pale skin. This contrast links in with the shadows and simplicity of the look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: yellow; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />

<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This mood board continues to follow on from the previous. It is still drawing upon the circles part of the trend but using different products. The idea for this look is to use beads in rows. A way in which of creating this is to create a fringe of beads, something which is shown in the mood board. I like the idea of using clear beads so that the detail behind can still shine through, something also drawn upon in the research of the trend. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As the hair for this look will be a lot more detailed, it is important to not create a detailed make up look. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Colours which will relate to this look will be whites and colours which are starting to get warmer for at the heat of the summer months. They do however have to link to the trend so only subtle hints of gold and shimmer will shine through for this look. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The photography style for this look will relate to the previous, there will be slight shadows cast upon the face but as there will be detail in the beading I do not want the shadows to detract or distort the clean looking image. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The mood for this look will be very relaxed but striking enough to carry the detailed beading over the face. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The model will need to have longish hair to style upon the head, ideally in a golden or auburn tones. They will need to have no fringe and a striking and strong face. A skin tone that would compliment golds and warmer tones would be ideal so a warmer, more tanned complexion would work. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: yellow;"></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As this is the last look of the trend I want it to be one of the strongest and one to finish the trend off. As most of the make up designs for this calendar have been focused upon the make up, I want to showcase what has been learnt in my hair design skills. So for this look, the focus will be on the hair. I want to draw upon elements of the trend such as the Olympics as well as the theme of unity, (this is why there has been a wedding ring included within the mood board). It has been decided to use rings within the hair to link to the trend and as the previous looks have not used plaits, this will help to create the interlinking theme. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The look will still need to follow on from the previous so the colour theme will be continued and extended into golds and bronzes. By using a ginger haired model this will link the colours to the look and also add some variation to the calendar. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The make up will need to link in with the hair but not over power it. Keeping in with the rounded circle theme, the eyes will be the focus of the make up. The idea of using golden eyelashes is appealing as it is something not normally seen. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The mood for this look will be stronger, a more structured hair will back this decision. It will still need to fit in with the softer theme so there will be an air of confidence but not arrogance in the models expression. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The style of photography for this look will be similar to the previous in that there will be a warm wash over the images and a small amount of shadow. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel that the communication of each mood board shows clearly what I want to create for each month of the calendar. From the previous shoot I found that the mood boards were more useful than the face charts I created. They express a clearer feeling. They show the mood as well as showing the hair and make-up which can be shown to the model and photographer, therefore I have decided to stop designing face charts and use my mood boards as a reference for each photo shoot. I also feel that the mood boards showcase some innovative designs that strongly link back to my research and trend. I want to really challenge myself to create some interesting images which really showcase my hair and make-up skills. If I am successful in doing this then I can demonstrate I am devising innovative and appropriate solutions to a specific styling brief. </span>marie-hopehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369695260628009470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013267073713001316.post-26011272158551208872012-03-25T14:18:00.002-07:002012-05-07T06:00:21.848-07:00trend 2 make-up and hair inspiration<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have found a range of images of hair and makeup images which I like, are inspirational and can relate to my trend of roundness.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I like the idea of placing a product onto the skin to show that makeup is not just your stereotypical products. The use of sequins and glitter is interesting as they are also rounded in shape, relating to the trend. By me using products like this it shows that I would be using my imagination in creating innovative designs. It would also showcase my make up skills. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The idea of placing colour around the eye is so easily achievable but I want to create something new. Placing colour under the eye like this image is appealing. The eye is seen as the main focus of the face, the inner of the circle, so why not draw attention to the surrounding area in order to showcase the feature.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Using pinks like these images is interesting. The colours relate to the trend and portray two different moods. The first look has much more intense colours and shows a stronger look. The second is more of a wash of colour and shows a softer feel. Both use long black eyelashes to set off the colour creating two striking looks. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I like the shape of the eye shadow on the eyes of this model. Although the colours are not specific to the trend, the eye shadow has been applied in a rounded shape, something which was not considered when applying eye shadow. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This image was selected because of the bold use of colour being used on the yes and within the hair.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I really like this image. It is very soft and delicate. It has been made to have this look in a number of different ways. The hair is very wispy and showing individual strands showing a delicate hair design. The make up is in very soft colour washes. The models is very fair and has soft facial features. And lastly with the bare skin on show and the soft face it creates an overall gentle look. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I like the idea of using a product such as sequins, glitter or paint on certain features of the face. If I was to do this, then the rest of the make up would need to be fairly simple so not to detract from the detailed feature. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The hair is very simple and clean cut in this look which is something which I like. I also like that the bun is in a rounded shape as it relates to the trend. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These sculptured hair images provide inspiration for creating more elaborate hair designs. I like the idea of mixing up textures so that there is a slick and a frizzy element to the hair design. These images were selected for the 'puff ball' style hair but I also like lighting. They are quite shadowed but highlight the hair. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I didn't know where to look at first and where to start.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know that each trend is going to be different in the year but they can link slightly. I also know that from researching into previous trends the S/S' season's that they have a similar pattern. So I decided to look into what may be the next common theme.This is explained in the following blog entry. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I looked into a different city, Birmingham and saw a few things that inspired me. As it was my home town it was easy to visit and I knew where to look. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First of all was the impressive Selfridge's building, this could be viewed as a work of art or a monstrosity.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="296" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivK4nzqtL_Xhjvc9MP4Z1luVfU93rAA1kgGwroSAIuMSykFP0PDBdmWDPFoNdXNgjNx56Aujj5yc8kbeExLOz5_F7Q-XZU3RtWk0Bz4sokqSkTu2UAnN-nWKyfGPvoyaupRD5JbxXi57uC/s400/Bullring_Birmingham.JPG" width="400" /> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinFxfM_1WR1MPbuki_-cu31EgtTxEWJb2sgcXXFLhH83y8yhHfQrFI2vwKH13ee4uLu-3jk_-ZUbnvZu2f3GjQfT32F-LXs1jCqFU5y2omN9fx-4MZ_y9ApzTXOcUdTdzPHYQYl0EfjSRV/s400/bullring+at+night.jpg" width="263" /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I like the unusualness of the architecture. It is structured with the rows of dishes but also soft at the same time, there are no hard edges and everything is soft, round and smooth. I like this idea for my next trend. It is a contrast to the harsh shatter effect of my previous trend but also links into the fact that the shatter has an epicentre and branches out in a circle effect. I want to draw upon circles for my trend as they appear in every aspect of life. The Selfridge's was a strong starting point to inspire me to look further into circles.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I decided to write down a list of things that had circles within them which I thought was interesting.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Olympics - I knew that this was going to be an important event to the UK this year and could influence the way fashion and design could go. The Olympic rings are made up of five circles interlocking and represent how countries unite and come together for something important. I wanted to draw upon this 'all is one' theory and use it within my designs. </span></li>
</ul>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I looked into architecture- As the Bullring first inspired me I decided to look further into British architecture and see where it would take me. I found lots of structures that also took a rounded shape. These are just a few that I drew upon from just Birmingham. </span></li>
</ul>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.urban75.org/photos/birmingham/images/birmingham-15.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="228" src="http://www.urban75.org/photos/birmingham/images/birmingham-15.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the BT Tower the tallest building within the city. Coincidently it has a top made of lots of circles. Although they are lined in rows they vary in shapes, sizes and colour showing a sporadic pattern. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://londoneyeviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Rotunda-Birmingham.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="312" src="http://londoneyeviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Rotunda-Birmingham.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the Rotunda, a building right in the centre of the city, a building full of apartments fit for a true shopper who likes to be in the middle of everything that is happening around them. This is a new iconic building to Birmingham, a building that fits in with the rounded theme. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.crosbyheritage.co.uk/images/photos/dad%20birmingham%20council%20house%20%20012.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="http://www.crosbyheritage.co.uk/images/photos/dad%20birmingham%20council%20house%20%20012.jpg" /></span></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Although the purpose of the image is the Council House which is very grand, the solid concrete balls laid in a row in front of the building caught my eye. The idea that although spheres do not have an edge, they can still be put in rows to create one. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I then went to look into other British architecture that was iconic and also rounded in shape. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b4/London_Eye_Twilight_April_2006.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b4/London_Eye_Twilight_April_2006.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The obvious London Eye, a perfect circle which is recognised globally. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I was looking back at London I decided to re-evaluate what I had already seen and taken photographs of. I did notice a common rounded theme running through my images.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Although there is no solid circles, when looking at this image of London I was attracted to the sunlight bubbles that have been captured in a row on the photograph. I like the semi transparent look and way that there is still something going on underneath.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> This then lead me to look at a book called 'Walking in Circles' by Richard Long.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">His book shows his journey across the world. He creates and documents shapes in particular circles that appear in nature and that he has created using natural products. The book documents his journey, his thoughts and sights along the way. These are just a few of the images from the book.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a photograph of somewhere in Mexico where Richard visited. I like the way that altough there is a clear circle which has been formed it still fits in with the rest of the surroundings. I want my designs to show the theme but not detract from the natural beauty of the face.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also looked into the artist Gustav Klimt. The ideas in my head reminded me of some of his artwork which has circles within them. Some of his images feature beautiful women wrapped up in the background. They all look very relaxed and feminine looking giving off a very soft feel, something that I want to portray in my images. Here are a few which I particually like </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They are all very romantic images with the women often looking like they are in love. I like this idea of having a loved theme to create a softer look. The circles and shapes that surround the women are detailed but do not over power her, she remains the main focus. The colours in the images are also rich but not too bright. They are not pastels but not intense shades. The images are very busy, I like some elements to the images but as a whole this would be too much for an image for my calendar. There is so much going on that you can study the images for a long time, I want one striking feature to my images.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u>COLOUR</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Colour wise I wanted to reflect a lighter mood for Spring/Summer. Circles have no edges just a constant line which could go on and on. To me this creates a softer feeling which I think can be shown through colour.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The colour pallette that was seen in this image spurred me to select the colours I think work well with the trend. I particuarly like the blues, pinks, nudes and purples.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also like the background colours of this image. They are all very soft and blend into one another. They are subtle with just hints of colour peering through. Again I like the way that there is still something shining through underneath.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel I now have a strong basis of research to now lead me on to creating my second trend forecast. Having such a strong first trend feels like I have now set the bar extremely high in creating further ones. I understand how to create them but I have found it more challenging to create. I believe this is because I have been lacking in my imaginative and inspiration skills. It was important to me to reference points from the UK as this is where I will be targeting my outcome. In order for the consumer to understand and relate to the trends I felt it was important for me to keep the focus on Britain. By me carrying out thorough research it not only allows me to put together a strong trend forecast but also evidence my investigation skills, proving that I have addressed the learning outcome ' Devise innovative and appropriate solutions to a specific styling problem or brief'.</span></div>

From there I can then see what has already been done and will not be about and also what I think will progress into a trend.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Makeup trends for S/S 2012 according to Harper's Bizaar.com</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<i><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17px;">Makeup artists played with a mix of old and new for spring. Backstage inspiration boards featured rouge lip colours that seemed pulled from a vanity table drawer from long ago, futuristic glittery eye accents, timeless natural tones and indelible smoky shadows and liners done in fresh ways. The overall message: pair vintage with modern to make a statement that’s unique and all your own this season."</span></span></i><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lips are either in classic reds or a romantic rose shade, lips either have a dramatic edge or a turn to soft modernity.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think reds have been seen quite a lot in the past couple of seasons so I do not think it will make another recurrence for S/S 2014. On the other hand I believe that pinks and softer shades on the lips could and it is something I would be interested in bringing into my trend.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Big brows are also been seen a lot on the catwalks for S/S 12, again I think big brows have been used quite a lot. I do think they are going to stay around for a luttle longer as people are seeking for bigger brows but I believe there will be another twist to this whether it will be perfectly groomed, brushed up or untamed. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Skin has a flawless natural feel to it this season with a pale radiance. There are no sight of tans at the moment as skin is only just starting to be shown after a cold winter and it looks like it is going to stay that way. The pale beauty is starting to become more important in today's society, people are realising sun=skin damage and people do not want this so I believe pale will be sticking around in time for S/S 2014. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Glamorous lashes are also appearing often within the catwalks for S/S 12. Femininity is back and this is a great way to show it. I think femininity is here to stay for a few seasons especially for spring. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cat eyes and eye liner flicks are in at the moment but I think the time is nearly over for this look. Fresh faced and youthful is something I want to interpret for my trend. The flicks have been a way of reminiscing on the Amy Winehouse look but I think it is time to move on approach something different. </span></div>

The sporting life was a popular theme with styles that looked fresh from the ocean or outdoors, and classic American glamour had a big moment with polished ponytails, graceful braids, and bouncy blowouts. Still, nothing was too perfect or impeccable—deconstructed waves and undone knots and twists proved that having a bit of an edge is as chic as ever"</span></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Although these trends are around at present some will progress and adapt into similar but differerent trends. I want to draw upon these trends and use some of them to come up with ideas for my S/S 14 trend. I have noticed that as a trend the looks are more feminine and slightly softer for the S/S months. This is something I will continue to do for my trend. I do not want to simply copy the looks as they have already been done, instead I will use them as inspiration. </span></div>
