Fight Night Project

 

The latest project to come off the school production line was a project where we had full reign of what we had to do. The only provisions for the project was that it needed to be done in photoshop. Considering it was for digital imaging in a graphic design course, I believe it was a fair call.

So off to the drawing board I went, we had a few choices to make, after some brainstorming, I fell back on my past as usual, coming up with the idea of doing a photo of me dressed up as a fighter, and add some bruising, black eyes, and bits like that.

Bounced a few ideas around the class, and an idea I got from my classmates was do it in an alleyway with car headlights, naturally it was this idea that stuck.

Below is the images, the first one is the finished product.

The next image was the original photo I used to create the above effect.

The following pictures are the short listed images that almost got used.

So all in all it was a great shoot, with special thanks to my partner Jen for taking the photos.

Hey Folks,

Today after a little bit of a disagreement with the deviantArt portfolio system, I went into adobe InDesign cs3 and created my own portfolio via pdf.

July 2009 Portfolio of Paul Stevens for Online Viewing

If you have a need to print it out, make sure you email me, and I can supply you the high quality print version. Although with a little bit of skill you could find it by accident. But I am more then happy to help out if anyone wants  it.

I have full intention of making it into an online feature, however my first challenge is making a gadget for this blog so it can be downloaded at any time.

cheers
Paul Stevens
