Poster

The first thing I did to make my poster was to draw a hand which was covered with chains. The chains and hand represent the amount of freedom they had which wasn’t much.as you can see there were broken chains as well which connotes that they were fighting and broke some of the chains which gave them more freedom. This was done myself and I scanned it into the laptop/my email. Through photoshop I used various of tools to adjust the image. I used the ‘magic wand tool’ to remove the unwanted outsides. After that I used the lasso tool to make the image sharper and have no edges sticking out etc. after that I used filter and sharpen to make the image more appealing the last step was to use adjustment on the right-hand side and use the graph [ curves] this gave the image its colour and I had to do this three times. The hand and chains show slavery and also lack of freedom and this links to reggae because some of the music produced by the artists were about freedom and slavery.

Website

On my website, I used two main colours which were blue and yellow and it set out my background. I used these colours because the information which was put on stands out. Also, it flows with the images I have used. Also, I have included the most famous songs which Bob Marley played. I have a gallery which shows images which other people have created and also posters which the students of LSC in the media section have created. the website had an easy navigation system and on the home page, I used ‘strip’ to make my website more fun and easy to sue and to look through the images which have been presented and they can do this efficiently. The strip is in the middle so that it looks good and also because it looks professional. All of the contexts on the web page is in the middle because if it was scattered it will make the target audience less attracted to it. The point of focus is the home page because there is a mixture of images and history of Bob Marley
