The Feel

So I said I would write a post trying to explain the 'feel' I am going for with my multimodal text. I want to create something that people feel glad they have looked at. And leaves them with happy emotions such as feeling sentimental, warm and happy. I thought this fits the text as that is what a blessing is designed to do - make someone feel blessed. The Irish blessing in particular resonated with me because it is my favourite place and that is why I chose to do an Irish blessing.

So the feel is the main theme of my multimodal text and I am making all my decisions on meeting this 'feel'. For example, when taking photos of my paintings to use as my background I put a light source behind them to help them glow a little. I like this look as it ended up giving the pictures a bit of a border where the light fades and really focuses the eye on the centre picture, which is supposed to be depicting happiness) and also a visual representation of the words. I think this helps me to meet my theme.
