Vogue Covers 2010

Just spotted these on Creative Review and thought they were really visually interesting. Each Vogue cover from every issue in 2010 was placed on top of each other to create these ghostly covers. Really interesting to see the differing structures and colour schemes between the different countries. Think my faves are British Vogue and Vogue Paris.

Shufti Photoshoot

As promised here are some of the images for my Shufti Photoshoot modelled by my gorgeous housemate Izzy :)

The theme I chose out of the 4 was rendezvous. My "narrative" for the shoot was someone taking a rendezvous with a memory, i.e taking a trip down memory lane and revisiting a place, or a moment in time from the past. I shot at the German market in Leeds city centre and really wanted to capture a sort of childhood reminiscence. Will post up pictures of my final magazine spreads when I complete them!

RIKA magazine

I love these spreads for RIKA magazine which has recently been updated with a new identity, type design and art direction from studio NR2154. Also good inspiration for my Shufti spreads which I will be putting together later on today. Pics from my shoot to come soon!

Not a fan of this AT ALL but...

Once again the ever enlarging role that Facebook plays in our lives is demonstrated. DDB Paris has created a personalised Facebook- book for company Bouygues Télécom. People purchasing the book could choose the time frame captured and the people included in the book.

The concept behind it is that people share all their treasured memories and photos on Facebook, but they can all get lost and forgotten in "cyberspace". Although I think this is an interesting concept, and something I worry about myself having thousands of digital photos in a library but very few printed, I really hate the idea of this book. I think it is ugly and badly designed, literally looking like a bunch of screen shots from Facebook thrown together. Someone also made the interesting point on a comment on the CR blog that so many people share extremely trivial details about their lives on Facebook, they would seem not nearly importantly enough to print in a book, which I strongly agree with being a big user of the site myself!

This book for me is just another step into how we live our lives straight through Facebook. Sorry, not convinced.

Here's a video of it as well if you REALLY want to see more...
