photoshop practice

The brief was to design a aftershave advert using photoshop and some pictures. i chose these pictures as they were all black and white and had the same 'retro' feel. I removed the white backgrounds from the bottle and the man the placed them on the manhattan background. I then altered the blending options to soften the edges as well as changing the opacity.
This task helped me develop my photoshop skills.

Questionnaire result analyse

Form the results i found that most people enjoy a wide variety of music styles. Most people's parents belong to the social grades between B and D. I also found that most people are not really belongers as they are not brand loyal, they also enjoyed social activities as a group with friends or a a group(i.e Middlesbrough F.C). This is also reinforced by the fact that very few of the subjects had religious views. Most belonged to the group socially conscious type A as most were keen recyclers. Very few were emulators/ 'wannabes' as very few said yes to question 18 (see previous post). Most had political views but few had no interest. Most considered themselves as 'normal' when referring to their social group. Most of the people asked had jobs this reflects their desire to be achievers this reflects Emulator attitudes.  I used questions 2 and 3 to identify the social groups where as question 13 identified social grades. Questions 7 and 14 identified belongers. question 18 showed emulators and wannabes.  Questions 15, 16 and 17 revealed socially conscious group A.
