pictures for cd cover

This is where I would put the pictures that Tom and I took last week the only problem currently is that apparently the computer won't let me save anymore images, and the one image I have managed to save won't upload which is about the most frustrating thing when I'm only a third of the way through this project. So two of the pictures Tom and I took are basically two shots of the fountains in the centre from the edge of the farthest one from the statue of Poseidon. One with minimum zoom, and the other with some zoom on it. The weather was sunny that day so both pictures are brightly lit, and show the sparkle of the water, and surroundings. An effect that contrasts with the almost greyish atmosphere of the music video Tom and I are making where our main character seems to have lost his personality, mind, or sense of self. The effect of which is to make the concept of our video that much more obvious. Other pictures Tom and I took last week are two close-up pictures of the statue of Poseidon to go along with the idea I had for the cd cover where it's a picture of a tree, a door, and the base of the statue. We also finally took pictures of trees in Castle Park since Tom didn't bring his car, and we shot some extra footage during filming there anyway. The only problem with the pictures of the two different locations is that the tree shots are more shadowed than the ones of the fountains. Though this will also probably show more of the concept that Tom and I are using for our music video which is man on a mission, with a somewhat underlying message of light overcoming darkness which is shown through our main characters game of hide and seek within the confines of his own mind. Tom said that we should take a picture of the factory where he and I shot the beginning of our music video and explained how this would fit in with an idea he had for a cd cover front cover picture. This idea was to have the face of our music videos main character overlayed on pictures of the four locations with one of his eyes red and one of his eyes grey to represent the two sides of his personality e.g. the hider and seeker. My idea to add to this is to have the picture on the front cover start out grey and become colourful to represent the progression of the mental hide and seek game.
