Production Company Logo

We decided to make a company logo to follow conventions of real media CD covers it follows suit from production institutions. From our prelim task in summer where we made a practice short film to ready our skills for production we came up with the company name 'Banana Suit Productions'. We placed white text upon a black background to increase the severity in which it stands out. Laying the text over and in between the image allows the text to be easily readable. Moreover, having the image outside of the black box could represent the power in which the production team has. It cannot be contained in a box. It breaks the conventions and drives forward. We then took a picture of one of our friends in their banana suit costume and use the clone stand tool to take the yellow from the rest of the suit and stamp it over the face to cover the hole. Then using the magnetic lasso tool selected the area around the existing body and then deleted the rest of the body out of the image. After this using the 'Cut out' effect in Photoshop created the plastic look it has. By cutting the rest of the body out but the arms makes it look as if the man has been consumed and trapped by the suit with no escape. In some ways it represents the way in which we want our production to work. Through passion you become completely consumed and overwhelmed by the production and you find yourself right in the middle of the piece.
We got inspiration from such artists as "Banksy", click links for inspirational photographs: 1,2 and 3
