As i decided to create my design from an a3 size page all of the page layouts are on one side oof the page which leaves the other side blank. i decided to create a poster for the other side which recievers of this leaflet could stick up as a kind of souveneir of there time at V festival. i chose a selection of photographs of artists and created a collage on photoshop using blending modes to create this effect. i chose to have the images all in black and white with only the V logo in colour, i think this work well and fits in with the design of the inside paages of the leaflet. i included empty poloroid shapes to encourage people going to the festival to use this poster to document their own experience of the festival. overall i am very pleased with this.

This is the almost finalised design for my project. i decided to created a folded leaflet rather than a booklet which made creating the document more complicated than first anticipated. I needed to think of a way of putting this together so it would work the way i had planned. i created an a3 document in indesign and after making a paper mock up of the way this would fold the design became a lot easier to make. Making a paper mock up meant that i had something to refer to whilst putting my design together, in future if i create a similar document i will definitely use this technique again as it saved a lot of time and ensured i was putting pages in the correct place on the computer design.

This is the original scan of my Olly Murs illustration aswell as my final edit for the design. i selected a few areas of the image (hat and collar) to colour as i did with the previous image and used the same techniques to make the images look similar. This will ensure a continuous style throughout the piece.

here are a few of the edits i created as part of my development work for this project, i like the idea of a very simple colour scheme so in all of these edits i have used a limited selection of colours. i have adjusted the levels to make the drawing clearer and experimented with using a skin tone over the face as the only colour. i am not completely happy with these edits though and wouldnt feel confident using them in my work so i am going to continue development until i produce somethikng i am confident with.
I began my illustrations for this project by creating this pen drawing of Rita Ora, one of the performers at the festival. Once i had scanned the design into the computer a lot of the quality was lost so before i add the image into the final design i will need to edit them on photoshop to increase the quality.
