The layout have developed even further we now have a large range of spreads that accommodate for different set shot. as the set shots are so different I have accommodated for this and included colours bleeding of images and colour overlays for people who have less exciting images. However we have to consider where on the layout what is keeping constant. The two things that keep consistent on the page are the page number and name on the left hand side and the contact details on the right hand side the about is flexible and the imagery is much more flexible than the previous layout.
I still feel however that the cover needs alot more attention as it is vital that we get the cover right. People will not pick the book up if it is not right.
The set shots that are not as strong have been played with and we felt a clever way of making them less impactful would be to put a colour overlay on them rather than make them smaller and significant the images are subtly different but still interesting as you can still see details in the photograph yet when you put close ups of the work then it relates back to the set shot.
THe black pages we did not like at first but these pages add alot to the book they make the book much more interesting and powerful and add an element of sophistication.
Within the spreads we have included a showcase page where there is hints of work on the page which state the name and then this relates back to the pages and makes people go back into pages.
