Meet Up 2

- the pots could exist in black and white because of the patterns and textures if we don't use colour within the imagery  
- alternatively we focus on colour for the illustrations 
- potentially there's a bit of a clash between the geometric design and Megs more organic illustrations, this could be made better by making the sets to fit more with the layout of the lines and the imagery 
- Meg was concerned that the images were a little grey however these could be improved and made more white, through better lighting in the photography studio.
- the images in the circles with the coloured outline worked well 
- the images with the coloured backgrounds could work well with black imagery rather than colour
- I suggested that if the illustrations were only black lines the illustrations would then merge with the rest of the image and there would be no contrast between Megs illustrations and the photograph which I didn't think would do justice to her work or put the art as the main focus of the design.
- outlining the circle in the same colour as the line could be tested 
- having the circle image in a colour creates a bold graphic image
- a limited colour pallette could be used for the designs / backgrounds 
- zooming in to the illustrations works well for spot images and would look bold for a sequence of images however the context of the place which is represented with the photographs would be lost.
- Creating a animation / video of the sequence could work as the frame in After Effects can be panned to follow the line. A large image would have to be created of the whole design for Meg to then animate.
- The design would work well as a promotional video and for social media such as instagram. The amount of clocks would just have to be limited for the social media GIFs.
- Using different speeds within the video is possible which could help tell the story more and reflect a sense of people becoming more calm when the visit museums, galleries and historic houses compared to their daily lives 
- It may be possible to animate the line so that it progresses through the imagery rather than just appearing as this would better reflect the idea of going on a journey
- perhaps 9 - 12 clock faces could be used with a colour pallette of 3 - 4 colours
