GOOGLE READER

Using Google Reader makes following my blogs so much easier, it's a central hub for every post that's made. Allowing me or organise my followers into folders, I can easily seperate the blogs that I'm following as my 5 chosen ones, to those I'm following for personal reasons. 

Compared to tumblrs dashboard it makes interacting with your blogging audience simpler.

MIXED MEDIA COLLAGE

Photograph

This mixed-media collage was used as one of my final pieces for the project on Doodles, starting as a strip from someone elses work I was asked to make it into a collage. Two drawings on the strip caught my eye and I decided to make these my main focus. With one being red and one blue I decided to keep the design simple and have it halved.

The word 'good' was scribbled across the sheet so I letter-blocked this in paint across the piece, I think the word fits nicely as the work is in two halves with stereotypically opposite colours for male and female; good and bad.

PHOTOMONTAGE: GEARS OF WAR 3

UNIT 34: Image Manipulation

Gears of War 3rd game cover concept

For my photomontage I have decided to to it based around Gears of War, with two games already out and a third up-coming I though this would be a perfect chance for me to create a concept cover for the trilogy.

Using various layering techniques, blends and blurs I was able to create, what I beleive, is a realistic looking game cover following the common theme of the game. The image was exported via Photoshop and layered into a mock-up Xbox 360 game case to achieve a realistic, life-like outcome.
