Two photoshoots, one day, no messin'

Yesterday me and Merlin art-directed a photoshoot with Adrian Ray for the prospectus design. We wanted photos of people interacting with their work, that would sit along side a quote by the student about their work. This is an attempt to portray what actually happens at the college—we felt as though the wishy washy quotes that they had last year (for example: "The college is lovely and everybody is friendly and I like it and its nice") didn't really give people a sense of what went on.

Here I am, all being in charge and stuff. Well, I didn't really have to do much as I think Adrian understood pretty well what it was we wanted.



After that I bought a pizza for Kyle so that I could get Bing to take photos of it representing world hunger and Western greed. Here's some of them:






I combined them with a stock image of a table cloth, and as if by magic, it now looks like the plate is on the table cloth.




The end of the knife and fork on the top one are possibly a bit rubbish, but they get covered up with text, so don't even worry about it.

And the final postcards:




You'll notice I got rid of the thought bubble from the logo, it was a bit rubbish and predictable—best just keep it simple.
