Wednesday 23rd March

Today I bought a typewriter in order for me to type part of the story of Snow white for my FMP. I began typing up sections of the Snow White story and then thinking of how I could display them in interesting and different ways. 

I think the imagery has worked well in framing the page, the collage style images I feel work as they contain colours associated with Snow White, i.e. greens, reds and creams. The black outlining allows the image to stand out be recognisable as a silhouette. The brown paper also adds to the vintage style scrap book effect which I want to use in my final project.

Looking at the work of Chisato Tamabatashi who uses different layers of white paper, distinguishing them with different patterns, I decided to create another woodland scene. I then over-layes text in the form of tracing paper, printed on with my typewriter. Although you can't read the text very well I think it has worked effectively. However it could only be used as imagery rather than a functional page of text as some areas are hard to read.
