FMP Inspiration

these are some of the artist i have been inspired by for some of my poster ideas for my FMP (Final Major Project) The First Artist is Erlend Mork. This is a link to his page. http://erlendmork.com/
I really like his work as it is very dark and quite creepy.

I like the background and also the layout of this image as it relates very closely to what i aim to produce for my poster design..not so much the look of the figure but where the figure is and how its positioned also the lighting on the figure and dark around it is what i am aiming for.











The effects on this face is also something i wish to produce although i don't plan on there being a strong light source coming from the right as i want the face to look very dark with the shots i take.

I couldn't find a lot of information on the artist but he is very talented. However he does only stick to a very dark sinister style i think it would be nice if he came out of his comfort zone and tried to make at least one image bright and colourful it makes the viewer of his work admire his pieces a bit more if they can see he is capable of more than one style.







Another artist whose work i liked is Stephanie Bennett, she works in a very surreal style and her works are quite disturbing but they are definitely really great pieces.
This piece drew my attention the most as i do plan to add blood in my poster and although there is quite a lot of blood in the image, she uses it discretely in each area and doesn't make it look over the top that's what i hope to accomplish when i design my poster and album cover.

FMP Project

My FMP has now started I have chosen to do a Poster and an album cover for my band called Swear 4 Sin. I will also create flyers to promote us. I will be looking into a range of photography with Digital enhancements as this is the style I am going for. I will also be producing a logo and a stylized font.
I hope to produce some really eye catching designs, making them both visually attractive yet quite dark and hope to incorporate a sense of evilness into my outcomes as my bands genre is Death Metal and I want my designs to look like they are promoting that and not anything else.
