This afternoon I will be meetin up with a woman who used to be an Estate Agent, I have a couple of questions for her but I won't be taking any photographs at this point. It should be an interesting experience tackling the subject this way and I will post up later on how it goes.
Last week we were set a task to create a sort of 5 page spread draft of our books using the software Indesign. Thinking about use of space, layout, size of pages and order. I've been playing around with a couple of pages and currently the paper size is sitting comfortably at A5, landscape.
For the crescendos that I am looking for, I have utilized the image size and orientation to create a path in which the eye will take.
Here is a quick overall view of what I am considering:
This is a screen grab from Indesign, showing the pager layouts in the context of the rest of the pages.
These are some larger representations from Indesign exluding the first page which is blank.
This image is purpusefully accross the spread like this, a sort of exaggeration of the idea. The house is augmented and this is accentuated accross the two pages.
This is currently the top of the crescendo - the point to which a person has this high status symbol but chooses to hide it from the world.
Then we descend back into a reality, where society looks through these windows at thedse symbols and feelings of sadness and anxiety follow.
And finally to my own reality, the worlds view of my status symbol, somehow relating the size of my window to the amount of status I have achieved.
