For this project my task was to create a pub sign that was lateral not literal, so in other words it couldn't be like normal pub signs where its called The Ram and then a lovely painting of a ram on it.
So I chose The Red Lion and decided to think about its main and how people say to you your hair looks bit wild like a main, which I tend to get quite a lot so thats what triggered this idea. So I took this photography focusing on the hair and showing no idenity of the person.
I had tried putting a red tint over the hair, but I felt it looked too forced and the black and white photograph had better contrast with the banner at the bottom. I think the typeface works quite well.
I am reasonably pleased with how the sign has turned out, I think its a good photograph and works well, I chose this position for the model because I felt it showed the pride of the lion.
As I finished the project earlier than the deadline my tutor wanted me to do another pub sign as well with another one of my ideas that he liked as well. So that is on its way.
