Project Monitoring 13.02.14

This week, I began working on my grammar DPS that debates the solidarity of the rules behind grammar and how these rules affect writing. In order to properly address this issue, I did a photoshoot where my model was bound by a green rope - the rope represented rules holding a writer from delivering true art. My model was wearing a facial expression that looks confused and bewildered. According to my schedule, I have completed more than what I had expected to complete because I have virtually finished an entire DPS in one week. It would seem that as the weeks progress, I am becoming faster at producing material for my product. I believe my client would be happy with the progress I have made this week.
To begin with, I debated the new colour scheme, as - once again - I have had to change my colour scheme. I had initially wanted to use a grey and light blue (cyan) colour scheme but could not because of the unexpected colour of the rope in use. However, this was not as unfortunate as I may have first anticipated because the new colour scheme - dark red and dark green looks very good. Before I could do this, though, I needed to edit the picture so that it looked brighter and sharper than what it initially was. Therefore, the light image against the green and red colour scheme looked very modern and far better than any other writing magazines on the market. I also managed to work out my own method of wrapping text around my model. The reason I did not know how to in the first place is because my model is not a moveable object. I drew around my model with a pencil and put a text wrap on the pencil markings which thus meant that the text wrapped around my model where I drew the lines. However, the fact that a shape appeared on my model was an issue so I simply put no colour on the shape.


My other images could not be used because the eye-line was out of place and the facial expression from my model is not quite what I was looking for. In addition to this, my backdrop is visible. Therefore, I had to select the best image I had taken.

I believe I am working at a good pace and this progress mirrors that in my treatment and am confident I shall complete this DPS in time.
