Refining the cover design/posters

After last shoot, i realized that why the shots where not working to there full potential was that i was positioning the set far too spread out. The reason why Vallees work is so effective and stunning is that he makes his sets on smaller scales and it is very tightly netted together.

So to refine the set i moved elements closer together here is what it started to look like:


I added  paper to the floor to fill int he space and make the set feel more colourful:










Experimenting with taking the shot at different angles, high, low and behind the set to show off the 3D elements of it. This may be good for the poster about the technical side of set design as it conveys the careful positioning and scale:







Maybe a lower angle is more effective for the poster, however this means that the poster would now have to be landscape instead of portrait. This may not be a problem but i have already designed the interviews and info pages i portrait format.

Below image which i think i will be using for the final poster for my design context. Playful and relevant as phil is physically holding up the HANDs on word:




Possibly imagery for the poster which demonstrates the technical side of set design, the number of people involves, the set itself before the image has been edited and cropped and how easily as below shows it can all go wrong in a split second if knocked over:
