In order to create my final book, we have been instructed to research it online and look at layouts and designs.

The website we used was: http://www.blurb.co.uk/

Here is a mood board of some photo books i liked:

I like how the photograph is places by itself on the right hand side of the page. The white border surrounding it gives it neatness and a bold outline that catches my attention.

Similarly, I like how this photograph is displayed across 3/4 of the rectangular book.

Considerations:

• what type of cover will i use?
• will the cover have various images or just one?
• how much space will i leave in between images?
• what borders will i use? color selection?

Include:

• quotes from the photographers and the people that i interview
• podcasts – either music or them speaking
• always have some sort of text (describing), even if the picture takes up the whole page
• maybe some illustrations to go with it, or special associations with the subject – eg drawing, plaque with name, newspaper article – this makes it very personal and interesting
