#5 - Week Three

This week I began to research visuals for this project. I have subscribed to a multitude of history magazines and was able to find images in there that gave me inspiration for this project.

I found this combination of medieval imagery and modern imagery a good representation of what I would like to display in my final result. I also love the element of collage.

This is an example of what I found to be a really successful map. I talked about my issues with maps found in history books because they often are very vague and not helpful when providing information. This is a specific map with loads of content and exact pin-pointing of what to know about a region.

I found this graphic based on imperial occupation of Barbados and I loved the aesthetic of it. I felt that the multi-media aesthetic is what I would like to go for. I also have a background in print making and would love to incorporate it into my research narratives final result.

This last image I found I really liked because it was a modern artistic rendition of historical portraiture. I think digital assets like this can prove to become invaluable in the future.
