Wednesday 28 March
In Wednesday's session I cut out all of the sections of the photographs. I cut the same sections as I did in my mock final outcome as I was happy with the arrangement of the cutouts when I did the mock. The paper cutting took me two hours and so this gave me some time to reflect over break time regarding the rest of the composition. I had previously thought that I was going to fix all of the photographs to a white painted board but instead I have chosen to paint the board black. This is because backing the photographs onto black will accentuate the colours that I am going to print with in the foreground. Having a black painted board also means that I can further get my concept across of a darkened stereotype in the background, as opposed to the vivid colour in the foreground that represents defying that stereotype. In the next hour, I stuck wallpaper and newspaper behind the A2 photographs, followed by 4, A3 photographs in the rest of the session. As the newspaper provides lighter tones to the background, I decided to only stick the newspaper behind outer middle four of the photographs in the middle section. This is so that the lighter tones don't interfere with the background being a dark, dull area.
I planned carefully which colours I was going to put behind each photograph so that they are all harmonious to each other and there is a balanced amount of each colour in the composition. I mainly used warmer colours, especially pinks and oranges to really infuse the background with connotation of happiness and being content.
