I created this final piece 'magazine/zine'  by creating layouts on Google Slides and PowerPoint, which I then uploaded to a website titled, 'Blurb', to be printed. I took inspiration from various artistic and aesthetically pleasing magazines to create layouts and arrangements that were eye-catching and intriguing, but also highlighted my photos in their best light. As for inspiration that I took from my artists, that all comes in through the photography itself, the magazine is not inspired by any of my artists in particular, but rather as a tool to portray themes of gender through the imagery. I developed more skills and techniques that I can count throughout this project - before this I had never done photography or analysed it in any way. I have learned how to shoot portraiture effectively and composition and space plays into that. I have learned how to use colour to convey emotion and themes as well as developed by understanding of the colour theory. I have worked hard to utilise monochromacy to produce black and white imagery. However, I have also learned an exponential amount about the concept of gender and gender identity. One thing that I think is successful about my final piece is the composition. I think they way that the images have been laid out and presented is effective. I experimented with putting one image on an entire page, I also tried putting one image across two pages, and I tried to vary between symmetry and asymmetry. I found that the variety of compositions makes a successful final outcome. If I were to improve this piece or re-do it, I would be sure to add a little more research, but also spread it out more so that it's not so "wordy".
