For this brief we was given a map and told to find things within the area marked on the map. As Lincoln has two universities I chose to go with the theme of a student night out. For inspiration as to what to look for I thought about what I typically do on a night out, starting at a flat for pre drinks, going out to the club/bar and ending up in McDonalds before finally going home.
For inspiration I looked at Mi Yung Sung and this picture of lanterns. I liked this picture as it is very colourful and visually engaging. This is why I added a bright yellow straw to the already bright red can of Pimm’s and put it against a black background. I used this method when taking the other two pictures with the Koppaberg bottle having bright colours on it, being the fruit and text. The third picture also has bright colours on the water bottle with the bright blue on the lid and label and the white red and orange on the McDonalds wrapper.
I also looked at A Sot who uses a plain black background and bright colours in front of it. This game me inspiration to use a dark background and putting bright colours onto of a dark background draw attention to it more than it would if the images was against a bright background.
