Wk04 Mood Board Final Phase

 I chose to do edits to three of my mood boards. Although I felt the mood board for my title page was great, I didn't like the image because it had the person (Midas) turning the statue head to gold rather than the person turning into the stone material of the statue. I went after class to get some help and managed to come up with this. The blue that was once gold represents the draining energy that flows through an object allowing Zosimos to absorb it. I felt as though the smoothness of my texture could be a little better, but for a first timer with photoshop, I think my image came out very nicely.

My Weapons and Abilities mood board was the hardest to figure out what to do with, All the images were so different and I couldn't really figure out how to connect them. I decided to use the color wheel to organize the images into a circular shape. I used the color pallet to create these circular rings that I placed around the background. After looking at it, I felt like that was still not enough, so I turned to the color pallet again to brush on spatters of color to fill in the empty background. By doing this I was able to give my image the rugged abstract feel I was looking for.






My Story mood board I felt saw the most improvement. These images had no background, but their colors were all very similar and connected them well. I wasn't sure what to do for the background, so I thought, why not use one of the images? I put the Area 51 image as the background because that's where the story originates and I added these cool distorting affects to the other two images so they didn't look plain on the background. The last thing I did was add these crimson scratch marks around the background too make it look bloody and dangerous. It gives off much more of a abomination/monster-esque feel to it.
