Background Re-visited

I am decided on how to go about the full body of my multimodal text slides - hooray! 

Title Slide
I am keeping the background decided on previously for my first 'title' slide as I feel the colours work well with the rest of the page and it gives it a warm feel.

Body
I gave this a lot of thought! To begin with, I was going to use photographs. However, I decided that it didn't give the feel that I was hoping to. I realise I haven't talked about the 'feel' for my multimodal text at all and will be doing a post to explain that, but in short: I want to create a sentimental, warm, happy feel as I feel that reflects the text. So, in order to create this I have decided to use the photographs originally chosen, but instead will be copying them by painting. I know it won't look as good as the original photos as I am by no means a good painter but I think it will portray the feel and look I am trying to create. We will see how that works out!

I will also be including silhouette figures that fit with the photographs, some of the photographs already have them on them, some do not so I will add them in.
I chose to use silhouettes instead of real people photographs as it represents that the blessing can be said to/read by anyone. There is an anonymity there that hopefully people relate to more easily.
  • Photographs - these do not follow a specific colour scheme like I originally thought I would, they were chosen to represent the words being said on that slide. However all the photos would be considered aesthetic and were chosen because they made me feel sentimental and/or warm and/or happy (the feel I am aiming for). I thought I might as well post the original photographs as they probably won't look like them on my actual slides.
