Finally catching up with college however stressful it may be becoming, but I do love a challenge so wont be backing out of this one just yet.
Today has been a real treat though, we're starting to look into styling and the styling of a story with in a magazine spread so who better to study than my personal bible and high priestess VOGUE AND ANNA WINTOUR! Yes, today was lovely as we watched one of the best independent movies of all time 'The September Issue'. A quick recap of the movie, it's about the 2007 American Vogue September Issue which stared Sienna Miller on the front cover, it was and maybe still is (I need to check) the largest published issue of VOGUE to date.
The movie was all about the making of this particular issue as well as what is needed to create the modern bible.
From watching the movie, which I have seen many many times before, I actually learnt so much more than I would have thought. The effort that goes in to even just a simple photograph, the hours of planning and number of people it takes for just one photo shoot of one story in phenomenal.
I really enjoy looking in to stories with in a magazine, so much inspiration is taken from them.
In 'The September Issue' you are literally taken around the world to find the perfect enviroment for the perfect photograph...
It's made me, someone who is passionate about fashion, like my idle Anna I live and breath for what I do and wont let a thing get in my way to get what I want, right down to the last button whole. But looking at all of it in full, and what it takes in the real world, It's made me stop and think that critisism is always constructive, taking time is essantial but taking too long costs money. All these things as a student you don't always think about...but that's the best part I feel that has come from today... I now know that even if I get it wrong first time now, It's going to be worth it in the future because I'll know how to get it right.
