Alternative Postcard

Back in September I was given my second project to complete for University as part of our introduction weeks. This was to take a trip to Thee Cliff Bay in the Gower Peninsular and create an alternative postcard in response to the area. My idea was to include the typical picturesque scene that is usually seen on Gower postcards but to make it very extraordinary, but still in keeping with the Welsh quality.

         I decided to make it Doctor Who themed a I am a fan myself, and thought it would be a playful and comical alternative. I planned what I was creating beforehand so I knew exactly what to take images of. I took an image of disturbed sand, which I used in front of the Tardis, then started to edit in the sky where I took the image from here. I then had to edit the water colour, the levels of the image so it matched with the ‘time of day’ and weather that I added into the photo.

Final Edit

I created two of these postcards, both with the same process but this was the final image I chose to present.
