WOO! I managed to produce my idea and it look alright. I used images that i found on deviantart.com as well as photograph’s which i took to create the path and used Photoshop to create its surroundings. I learnt how to use the pen tool as well which is very useful. So here it is my image…..
Nature fills Technology rules
Today me and a friend were discussing how soon xmas is and it got me thinking. I’ve had an idea for an image. I will try to creat a xmas tree out of gadgets suchs as laptops, mobiles , speakers etc, then place natural items under the tree as presents, for example a pine cone or a flower in a pot. This reverses the roles that nature and technology have come to play in the modern worlds xmas, therefore challenging conventions and creating a new set of ideologies. Interesting….. Now comes the hard part, creating it.
Edit
Ok I found a xmas tree template to build upon.
I found it at http://www.printactivities.com/TracingLetters/Shapes/Christmas_Tree.gif
Yes I know Its shit but i was just messing around . this is my first idea for nature vs technology….

So I’m not sure what ot write really. Im Sade’s and I’m an IMP at BU. Loving the course so far and the people on it are pretty rad too. I’ve read the first project brief and it looks interesting. I have a few ideas for images already, some on which i have drawn in my sketch book. My ideas seem great in my head but when i draw them they don’t look so good due to my terrible artistic skills. I am going to play around with photoshop more this week and design some images on there. ill put them on this blog once i figure out how.
