Freedom of Slavery

For my portfolio, I had to include my final major project work. I have developed all this work over a series of different projects. We had to decide on a theme and create a body of work to go with it – I decided the name of my theme and collection will be called ‘FREEDOM OF SLAVERY.’ I have decided this because I want my collection to show a diverse in modern clothes with inspirational words on.  I am trying to get the message across that slavery is completely wrong in every way and how freedom and equality are human rights. No matter what age, gender, race, religion every single person in this world is truly equal and shouldn’t be treated differently no matter what.  My collection shows a clear theme and colour palette – I have found the inspiration for my designs from different films surrounding the slavery topic and exhibition I have visited. The pages I will include in my portfolio are;

-          Freedom of Slavery Mood Board

-          Freedom of Slavery Colour Palette

-          Freedom of Slavery Designs

-          Freedom of Slavery Line Up

My second page in my portfolio is my Freedom of Slavery mood board.

This is my final mood board. This mood board literally has three images on but looks SO much better; it literally has about a thousand of words just in one picture. In the mood board, I have Photoshop skills like; polygon lasso tool, magic wand tool, cloning tool, and a few more. The background I choose for this mood board, I thought was very delicate, I love how the colours are very faded like an old effect.

This page is my Freedom of Slavery Colour Palette page

All the colours I have chosen as part of my colour palette for my final major project on the theme ‘Freedom of slavery’ are very basic. The colour are very dull and not very up-lifting. I watch various films to see how the costume designers interpreted clothes when slavery occurred. The colours bland, dirty brown and different shades of nudes have been seen as very popular for costumes. I have tired to pick a mixture of different colours relating to my theme, I have chosen seven colours for my colour palette. These included; Sandstone, Forest Green, Gold, Maple, Black, White and Umber. These colours all really correspond together and make my design stand out.
