Week 5

In week 5, our group decided to assign roles and I got poster making , along with Henry.  By that time there was’t much information available for us to brainstorm ideas but we looked up Star Wars sample logos and themes, dowloaded fonts and arrange texts composition as a draft first.
After a few weeks, we have finalised our idea into putting Jim , our host as our main character, standing next to a camera and a tripod, in a Star War inspired background with Star War texts.
First it was quite easy and straight forward to come up with it. But the actual designing process took more time that we expected. First it was hard to layer all different planets landscapes into one photo without making the whole thing looks fake. Henry did the layering work first, then I corrected the brightness / contrast , fix the texts and colors. Then to be able to deliver our ideas to the group, Henry took a shot of himself holding a camera, as a draft version of Jim’s to show everyone. And by doing that, we knew what we need to do at the actual shooting day, how Jim should pose, what should he wear, etc. By the end of week 6, we got the shots of Jim, but putting him in the poster was still a complex task, since we need to balance the lighting and color.
