Sketch: Image cut outs makes interesting visuals
On the way back home from Brighton (MobileCampBrighton). I was thinking about image cut outs and how they make interesting leading visuals. So I thought I’d share my random thoughts.
I know a few sites that displays cutout before going into an article. Flickr also displays cutout images of photos in a album format. The sketches probably won’t make any sense. But I thought I post it. Thanks to BetaVine/Vodafone for the free notepads.
The issue with cut outs is that if we pick at random a place to cut out an image, we risk the chance of picking a really strange area and or just a boring one.
Like for example we take a picture of a crowd of people dancing on the beach. Then we cut out the top right hand corner and all we get is the sky. It doesn’t do the full image any justice.
So I wondered if there is a speicifc area of a photo that would have the best chance of being an interesting cut out.
