After these pictures were made I had in my mind for
them as the book, I didn’t feel they would work as a video, I made it anyway to
see perhaps if I could use them for the video piece but I don’t particularly
like the result. The orientation of the pictures taken by my mobile phone
camera lends itself to portrait orientated book shape. I like this idea as
before doing this project I had never seen any Snapchat printed, I have seen
lots online on webpages were people have screen-shotted silly ones but I
thought it would be nice to make a book of my Snapchats. Doing this project at
the start I thought to just make an individual book with my own pictures and
leave it up to the viewer as to what the responses from the other person were.
I then thought perhaps it would be nice to have one picture of mine on the
first page and then the next page would be her reply to it. As there are two
pages to each book it seemed it would fit well.
During tutorials it was suggested that I consider
having two books one for my pictures and one for hers. I like this idea as you
could read the books together or read them separately and it would keep my
original idea of not knowing what the other person was saying, yet at the same
time you had the option to read them as a conversation. This is useful as my
conversations with this person are not linear, as sometimes one of us will send
two or three pictures in a row before the other person replies. It can get
difficult to read it with a simple flow, I really like the books to be like
this it also references my ideas for my video piece where it is meant to be
slightly difficult to follow.
