In this assignment I was asked to create a board game containing at least three creatures as well as a background. However getting a picture for the actual box all we needed to do was take an image from the studios that created Harry Potter. And for the three creatures we needed six image to create them. For our research we were able to find out about different creatures that was shown on the harry potter Octology for example the hippogriff from the first film and the dementors from the third film. The animals we used to create these creatures were from a farm called Stone bridge Farm. But to do this we needed an idea on what animals to take pictures of. I settled on using a horse, a pony, a pig, a pigeon as well as a chicken and a duck. With these animals i will be able to create some interesting images. I wanted to manly have all of my animals with many heads as well as it looking that it has be morphed together with magic.
The animals that I focused on were mammals and birds. the reason behind this choice was that the birds would provide any wing or heads, and the mammals would be the body and legs. There are many thing i had to take into consideration for example i used the cloudy white balance since it was dark enough to warrant its use, another reason would be location on where i take these images since if i take the image within a pen the image would be dark however if i take it while there outside it will would have been somewhat bright than those i took inside, finally the biggest conundrum would have been if the animal was half in and half out then there will be a large contrast on the animals fur. To fix this I had to take the image of each animal with consistency . Thanks to this reasoning I have achieved what i set out to do in this brief since I believe that i have created some interesting images creatures. the shots that I took during our trip to Harry Potter World would be as followed: So out of these images the one I used the second image since it's a box within a box so with Photoshop i could make all three of my creatures come out of the box, this is going to be my cover design for my box and i'll make the sides of the box black and red so that the consumer can focus on the front image. The editing process I used was to have 3 animals of the 6 animals to be placed onto the other 3 animals as different body parts I did this by cutting out what i needed and placed it on a new layer above the 3 original image and used the luidfy tool to morph the animals together .
The thing that i will be doing differently will as follows; Double checking the aperture, taking shots of subject matters at a different angle and research the different monsters in more detail. the reasons for me saying these things is because in all of my images i had taken at Stone-Bridge farm all had a glare of white on it because of me aperture being too wide and the other one is because most of the pictures i took all of them have been at the same angle.Finally i feel that the research i did didn't suffice enough after i'd done it.However it's not all bad i learned about the different filters on Photoshop as well as the actual editing software. Even though there was some changes I do believe that my final image coincides with what i was going for within my brief.There might be a few alterations but that was because I couldn't use the images i had or it just did't feel right.
