In this assignment we was given a task and the task was to create a Harry Potter board game, and we had to use our own images firstly we researched different type of shots in the Harry Potter film series and analysis them by seeing what emotion is on the characters faces and how it comes across to the viewers. This is an important task because I wanted to make my board game eye-catching to viewers. We then had to analysis key shots in the film for example, when the bridge is burned and it is an extreme wide-shot, this was also helpful when taking our images to see what type of camera shot was suitable.

When creating this board game. We first went to the Warner Bro’s Studios Harry Potter tour, this was to get ideas and to get plenty of photographs of the tour such as creatures, castles nearly everything that was standing out to us. I mainly focused on the castles and trains because I wanted to add them on my board game design because I believe they will look good on my box. Then I created a contact sheet of the images that was best and that I was going to use on my final game design. After going to the Harry Potter tour, We went To Stone-bridge farm where there was many animals , we had to take an image of all the animals that was there roughly around 30-40 images per person I mainly focused on animals which I believe would look good when morphed so the animals I focused on was ducks, chickens, cows, horses, sheep. We then created a contact sheet of all the animals we took an image of so it was easier to view, then we had to write about the images on the contact sheet for example, what ISO the image was taken in or what FPS it was taken in.

Furthermore we had to choose 6 of the best images and edit them so they look more professional on Photoshop for example I made the images sharper and clearer, also I made their fur smoother so it looks authentic. Furthermore we had to morph two of the animal images we took together from the 6 of the best images to 3 morphed images in final but it still had to look a little real. My final morphed images was a chickens head on a duck body and a horse’s head on a pig’s body and finally a cows head on a turkey’s body. They looked like a completely out of this world creature like something out of harry potter, (which means I accomplished the given task)

After I created the morphed images I then started to create my board game on A3 in Photoshop the size for the box had to be 42cm x 29.7cm. firstly I added two images from the Harry Potter Studios to create the background and I made the sides color black after I added a wand in the middle to give it some effect furthermore I added ‘’Harry Potter ’’ as the title and a ‘’ and the deathly creatures board game’ subtitle underneath it. I edited the text and background to make it look more professional and added my 3 morphed final images together.

I wouldn't change anything next time .from this task I have learned how to edit raw files (RW2) efficiently an example is adding a different color effect, this is what I done to my horse on a pigs body I added a purple tone effect to it, Furthermore I believe my final image meets the assignment brief to my original proposal, I done everything that was on my proposal.
