Booklet - Spread One


I think the picture from Exercise one that worked best compositionally for me was my tumble one. (pictured below)

I don't think that any of my final compositions would have worked effectively over a double page spread to convey the theme I have chose (old and new). To resolve this, I thought it would be a good idea to use the same composition twice over the double spread, with contrasting images/'textures' relating to my theme.



I used different images for old and new ways of communicating for the square element of this picture (a postage stamp and email logo), and different images for old and new methods of viewing information (an old film reel and dvd) for the circles.
I initially intended to include different images for the triangle part of this composition, but once I put them in, I found that they cluttered up the image too much, and as only a small portion of them were to be seen anyway, the composition was more effective without them, and just the blain black triangle behind them.

I arranged the the two pictures mirrored over the double spread as I felt that it created a balance over the pages, and meant there was no blatant division between the two sides.
