My final peace
The images on the wall have been changed so they are all blue, I have done this so they fit in with the background more effectively and they look more organised within the images. Blue was the final colour chosen as it is my favourite colour adding to the images relation to me.

With putting images on the wall like in my bedroom idea I tried doing this in different colours fist. I did not like this effect as I found it too distracting and it does not blend in with the background very well. Next I will do these all in one colour.

The contents of the picture frames has been changed to images which I have chosen and made in Photoshop adding to the about me effect. Like this being john malcovich poster but me.

To make the image more personal to me or to relate to my visual interest I decided to trace the image in illustrator using white lines on a black background for a sin city/Tron look.

I have decided to change the image for my montage. This is because I feel that the image needs more scale and room for me to work with as it will be an a3 picture and the viewers need to see more. The image I have chosen is a picture I took in Millennium Square, the idea is that I always look around and see things that relate to my interests e.g. films, games, music etc almost like everything is made up out of my interests or I see them everywhere.

Just to confirm what I have put in my sketchbook images. My idea behind the montage is everything is about me even the location, which is in my bedroom. The main plan is to form all the objects in the room with images from films, games, drawings; TV shows etc but still maintain the dimensions of that shape e.g. a chair or bed. Also just to confirm the shape I decided to put a rough out line with the paintbrush tool, making it look a bit like a Childs drawing as I think that I am really just like a big kid.
On the walls there are images from films and television shows, which I have worked on in Photoshop to represent a spray paint format on the wall. The image of the room was taken with a digital camera and moved into Photoshop and then illustrator.
This is still a trial run for my final idea which will be set in a much larger space giving me more room to work with, I was thinking an image I took with the digital SLR in millennium square and change all the pictures within the frames on display to be images of my own e.g. I have a picture I have taken from the “being John Malcovich” film poster but all the heads are mine and its called being Tom Saunders, this shows I really like the film and its art form (or at least I am interested in it). Another images are Godzilla fighting me over Tokyo bay. So for the final image I will outline everything in illustrator in black to get the child drawing effect then place in my own images within the picture frames showing pieces of my own work and the sort of things I like to do, then to finish images of my interests all around e.g. across the floor, up the walls (probably using the same spray paint look in order to make them blend in more effectively). There is a picture of me in the image of Millennium Square standing in the middle, to show the final image is based around me I will leave this section UN altered but everything else will be changed.

this is the second stage in developing my montage. using different images to form the different shapes within my room in this case mainly the chair.

An image iam using for a trail run in my montage project. Its in my bedroom as that also gives some extra information (visual) about me.

This is the story bord i am using for my animation music video. Its about waking up in the morning ( the feeling of it anyway).
