The primary imagery of skin collected went through a selection process, where images that had to be in focus, clearly evident a skin colour, and the selection chosen needed to be a variety of skin tones. To create a more professional outcome the imagery was photoshopped to remove the darkness and rough texture of the skin, this was done by applying a gradient map, a gaussian blur and changing the layering styles; the final outcome produced 4 skin backgrounds that brought out the warmth and tones of the skin and creating a noticeable difference in the poster series. Using the gaussian blue was to help decrease the sharpness of the poster and allow the label of the poster to stand out more - making the readability improve.
The label of the poster was personally hand sewn, where two variations were made. The chosen clothing label was created by re-creating the stitch used to apply labels to this insides of clothing - this would offer a more realistic outcome to the poster, and show a clearer link to the clothing label. Type chosen was to link to the type used for existing clothing labels , and was decided to be digitally added on, as printing type so small was prone to be illegible.
Photoshop was further used to apply the label, to remove all the negative space, to produce a more realistic outcome, further development involved shadowing the label, to create the illusion the label is attached closely to the skin.
Here is the outcome of the background layer of the poster.
Here is the colour development of the logo of the distribution company worldwide cancer research, the colours were developed through change of colour hue, to being white or black blocked logo. The colour of the logo of the first four variations shown above took attention away from the label of the poster, which is not what I wanted, turning the logo to a dark brown colour (below) blended well with the overall poster, still being distinguishable.
The design of the label was straight forward to create, as it takes similar compositions to that of a really clothing label.
