Presentation Feedback
After the presentation the feedback was very mixed, the audience felt like the images worked as they displayed the feel of the festival. The photography capture the moment, experience and feel of the place which was a benefit of the style of camera uses and the imperfect layout of each photo. The mistakes and the blue hue gave reflected the imperfect, messy, cheap feel of the festival which was postitive as i wasn't sure if i should redo the imagery, but the audience felt it expose the correct emotions which links the reason this style was used. The media was effective in capturing the vibes therefore the bad quailty of the imagery had meaning, they understood the reasons behind the design decisions involved in the brief.
-IMAGERY WORKS AS IT HAS MEANING
Although the audience felt it reflect the festival well it was pointed out that the images where effectively a photo album my personal trip to a festival, the images are a collection of my experience and even thought other people will have visited the same place the needed a link to be interested. No one would buy someone else photo album as the audience don't relate to it.
-ISSUE, MAKE IT RELATABLE NOT JUST MY EXPERIENCE
The feedback said that i should add something else to the book to make it either funny or relatable, represent the whole experience via quote or funny stories as this what make will make the book appeal more to an audience. To make the book have more of a hook as it makes them laugh or it makes them relive the experience, things they can relate too.
-ADD QUOTES/STORIES TO MAKE IT FUUNY/RELATEABLE
- GO TO THE VILLAGE BOOK SHOP OR COLOURS MAY VARY AND LOOK AT THE ZINES
After the crit i asked for feedback if i should redo the project with a easier theme that would sell better but the images have a unique charm to them, they needs a substantial idea to link them. Give the audience a feature that not just my recollections. The images have potential to be great but they just need something more or something that sells them, to find out how current quirk style books do this i aim research into existing products to find ideas/inspiration of how to do this.
-DONT REDO IMAGES
