1st Practical Project for Visual Communication 371 Unit in Curtin University
The brief is to create illustrations about three different new movies for the cover page of Little White Lies Magazine. The magazine is bold, beautiful and unique and is targeting film fans who recognizes the impact of movies in culture and society. The magazine’s USP is it’s cover illustration to make it appear quirky, modern and unique.
The goal of the illustration is to capture the audience’s attention and to communicate the theme or the story of the movie. The three movies I have chosen explored the themes about individuality and challenging the authority. The main characters where searching for the truth and they escape or turn to nature. The movies also highlight the ordinary events and person and how it is interconnected in all other things.
These ideas were also explored in Bloomsbury art movement by using techniques from Post-impressionism through visible and dynamic brush strokes and using different pastel colours to illustrate a portrait. The Bloomsbury artists enhances the key features of a person in drawing the portrait and focuses on the form or shape of the body like the hair, face and gives an emphasis or focus to the eyes to make the portrait more intense and interesting.
