URBAN JUXTAPOSITION 

 This image displays urban juxtaposition well because the wheel is in a very random place and looks odd in front of the college. I think this is a great example of urban juxtaposition.

This image displays urban junta position great because its a strange place to have a huge head statue, i like this image because its very interesting and looks original.

I think this image shows urban juxtaposition because the buildings look very different from the ones around it, the roof of these buildings are pointy and look different to the average buildings in wigan.

This image shows urban juxtaposition because the building to the right looks like it was built a long time ago, it reminds me of villages in the 1900's i think this is juxtaposition because the building next to it is a new building its like old and new.

Final Piece

At the beginning of the assignment we was asked to start this blog and add out images to it to evaluate and speak about them. Our first images we had to take was 10 images for the rule of thirds. I took mine in wigan park of different landscapes which i think shows the rule of thirds. The next thing we had to do was take images of urban juxtaposition and had to research are own art exhibition posters and evaluate them, this is when we started preparing for our final piece, We then got shown how to use adobe illustrator to make our art exhibition poster. We had to make different thumbnails of what we wanted our poster to look like.
The hardest thing to do was rule of thirds because i didn't really understand it at first but after research i understood what i meant. The best things i did in this assignment was the images i took. The images was all different types of photography and really interested me. The equipment i need for this task was a DSLR camera to take my images and access to Adobe Illustrator and the internet, to create my exhibition poster and to research images.
In this assignment i learned what the rule of thirds means, what urban juxtaposition means how how to take images in this style. I also learned how to use adobe illustrator and how to create my own exhibition poster. If i could have done this project differently i think i would have gone to different locations to take my images because i only stayed around the wigan area.
Overall i enjoyed this assignment as i learnt a lot more things than i knew before the assignment and i am happy with how my final piece came out.

There was 2 choices i was going to choose for my final piece, the image below is one of the images i like this images as it shows the old and the new buildings but i think the image i went for is more fitting for the poster.

 This is an image i was going to use for my final piece art exhibition poster but i ended up going for a different one in the end.

The image above is the image i chose for my final exhibition poster. I chose this image because i thought it explained juxtaposition well as the wheel in front of college is not something you would expect to see. I also like the angle of the image and how it looks.

EXHIBITION POSTER

This exhibition poster has the font Sans Serif this would be because this exhibition must not be too formal as is looks very colourful. It also look like it is displaying the London underground map so this could mean it is an urban exhibition.

This poster stands out quite a bit more than the others but not because it's extremely colourful but because the colours go against each other. The yellow stands out a lot more because of the black fonts used on this poster. The big A in the middle of the page is serif but the other fonts are sans serif. I think this is because the A is a logo and the rest of the poster is there to catch people's eyes because the font is very bold and in capital letters.

This exhibition poster is very eye catching. The text is the part of the poster that stands out because of the size of the text, the positioning and the colous contrasting againt each other. The black background makes the white and other bright colours stand out even more.

This poster looks like its quite plain but quite retro, thats because it was made in 1988. I like this poster as it looks plain but still looks interesting.

SERIF
The 2 images below display the serif writing font. You can see this because the font they both use has a small line attached to it, this is called a serif. This makes the font look more formal. The reason these two companies have used serif font is because they both want to look formal and want to be taken seriously. The Times is a formal newspaper and HSBC is a bank
so they will want people to think they are serious enough to be trusted with money.

SANS SERIF
The two images below show the font sans serif, this is because none of the fonts on these two images have the serifs coming of any of the text. These two images are not using serif, this is because they are less formal than the other 2 images. OK magazine is not as formal and quite informal on the text they use. This is because they have a varied age range and want people to see the title thats why its standing out. The other image is not using sans serif because their target audience is varied as well and the film its self isnt very formal.

SCRIPT
These two logos are a great example of the script font, this is because they both look very similar to a handwritten font. They have not been handwritten but they look like they have been handwritten. This is what the script font is and these logos display it.

DISPLAY

I think this image displays display typography. i think this because display typography is big and bright and used mostly on film posters and headlines.

Rule of Thirds

The rule of thirds is a concept in video and film production in which the frame is divided into into nine imaginary sections. This creates reference points which act as guides for framing the image.

I feel that my photos demonstrate a clear rule of third as it shows a clear focal item in each image. The first photo i think shows it well as when i look at the image my eyes focus to one part. The socnd photo shows a clear rule of thirds also as my eyes tend to lock at the center bush and make sit stand o

out.
