Collaging. . .

In the early stages of the project, in one of our seminars we spent the afternoon looking through magazines to collect images to create collages/mood boards. This was a good chance for me to look and understand how current photographers/make-up artists work when referring different aspects to 1920s. Whether it is the way the model is posed, or the certain shades used on the lips. As well as looking at the make-up and styling of the hair, I also looked in patterns, materials and colors.

After finishing these collages, I feel that this helped me understand more the modern day feel and interpretations of 1920s hair and make-up. I found this task incredibly helpful with my project and I think in the future this is something that I shall definitely consider in the future. Although some of the poses and colours used on the make-up is quite dark, sometimes a Gothic feel, I feel that this will help me think of the mood and facial expressions I want my model to have when in the final shooting stage.
