Transcript of Making our moodbaord
Using ‘Photovisi’ to create my Mood board
I browsed online to find a programme I could either download or a site that would allow me to essentially make a collage. Ideally one that was free to use, and easy to navigate.
I simply entered ‘make a collage online’ into Google.
‘Photovisi’ an online collage maker was the first to appear.
The site looked easy enough to use and so I went ahead and clicked ‘start creating’.
There were only 3 steps to create my collage ‘selecting a template’ from the options provided ‘adding my own photos’ that were saved to my computer and then ‘saving/ downloading my completed collage’.
The site provides a wide range of templates that you can use to display your images, I browsed some of the available options. I eventually found one I liked in the ‘Basic’ options.
I chose this template from the Basic Category as I wanted my images spread out and varied in size much like this template displays.
I was the presented with this blank canvas in which I could insert images, text or change backgrounds etc using the task bar at the side.
As I just wanted a white plain background for my collage ( mainly because I wanted my sepia effect images to stand out in stark contrast to a plain bright white background. I went ahead and clicked ‘Add items’ so I could insert my images.
I had already selected and saved my chosen images onto my computer and so chose this option to place them on my canvas.
I then searched for images which were saved onto my computer in a folder and selected each image so that all would be inserted at the same time instead of having to place each image individually.
Once my chosen images had been placed onto my canvas I was ready to start arranging them how I wanted.
I started moving my images about, resizing them, cropping and placing them where I wanted on the canvas.
Once I had arranged and placed each image, I had play around with some of the effects I could use, using the side bar and chose this sepia effect. I feel that this effect really makes the image stand out, adds a edgy tone to the images and really creates a dramatic effect.
I changed the ‘background’ colour to ‘black’ thinking that this would just add a black background against the colour images however, the background meant my images turned ‘sepia’.
Once I was happy with my mood board, I was ready to press ‘finish’.
My collage then began downloading and I selected a resolution of ‘1024x768’ for my image to be saved as. This download process took no time at all.
My completed collage took no time at all to download and once the process had reached ‘100%’ I clicked to ‘Continue’ button to move on to the next stage.
This message then appeared and so I pressed ‘click here to download your collage’, my collage downloaded and I saved the file in ‘my pictures’ as JPEG file so that I could use it anywhere on my blog work or in videos.
