Design 1
This was my first design I made but I didn’t like the way the three images on the side looked in a row because I thought it was too squished and if I put the filling writing in it would be a lot going on in one place and be boring to look at because everything is set out for you and it wouldn’t make you look around.
This is my final look the page spread I chose the to use the pictures that I took in Edinburgh. I edited these images originally on Lightroom to edit each image slightly before moving onto photoshop. On photoshop I used the same coloured filter on each image called ‘Septa’. I chose this filter because I thought it looked old and vintage and I took these pictures in the Old Town in Edinburgh so I thought it matched well. After I selected the filter I wanted I outlined each of the most prominent thing in the image and kept them in colour, the main accent colour in the page spread was blue. I then went on InDesign and created the page spread. I picked the big main image as a woman posing for a picture with a church/cathedral in the background. The image underneath is of a man in a blue tracksuit which goes with the blue in the big main image. The rest of the images are smaller on the side going down in a zig zag pattern. I chose to lay it out this way because I liked the way it goes with the writing next to each image.
Design 2
For this page spread I mixed pictures that I took in Paris and Edinburgh together. I chose to mix these two together as the ‘old’ vibe was still carried through in Each city. On my first attempt for this design I chose no text and three images but I didnt like the way the three images looked squashed together so I decided to use one less image and spread out the right two images from the others instead of all being joint together and put filler text in the fill the space where the other image was.
