Adding text

I put in some text to see if it worked.

I felt that the brightness of the bag took away from the image, you couldn't really see the handprint.


I liked the idea of this one, however i photoshopped the footprint on and it's quite obvious, i would need to actually put a print on thee shoe if I wanted to do this and I would probably need to find a shoe with a lighter coloured sole.
However, I feel like this imagery isn't as strong as the one with the box. It lacks an automatic recognition as foreign, perhaps if I used a Nike shoe?


I liked this one even more, but once again I should've painted the ground, however the paint I was using was difficult to get off stuff so I didn't want to put permanent blood-like handprints on the ground so i Photoshopped it. Would look better if i actually did it.


I liked the imagery in this, like the whole family is involved in this because you bought them clothes from superstores. or like the saying 'it all comes out in the wash'

If i used this in my final I would have to re-take the photos with a new label (because the only one I had at the time that would work was 'made in NZ' I could photoshop it out maybe or blur it.


This one has more emphasis on the label, and is more interesting as it cropped closer. I also played with different font colours to create emphasis. I think I like the first composition better but the red text needs to be dulled or tried as a neutral colour.



This one has nice movement and depth of field, however you can tell the label is pinned on.



I feel as it the imagery of these isn't as strong as it could just be another message on consumerism it doesn't really relate to the issue directly. It was supposed to be about how much we buy at superstores as they're cheap, but we don't notice the suffering of the worker that made the objects that we bought.
