Suggestion for Year book

Hey 2SC6!

I would just like to share an idea i came up with you guys.
It is regarding our year book one page collage thingy..
the page that costs us a friggin 100 dollars
The school want to burn money also must burn until like that meh! wah lao eh!

Anyway i was thinking.. i find collages very messy. You might argue that creating a collage of all the previous events we had as a class would be a good momento for our class. But i disagree!! The collages are so messy! The photos are so small!! You can hardly see anything in those photos! And you ALREADY have the actual, big, soft copies of those photos in your comp. Refer to those! Why look at the substandard collage -.- I do find the youtube layout and our senior's Next Top Model collage quite interesting but, again, why a collage when you already have the individual photos of these events?

I have a suggestion for that 100 dollar page that we should keep for the rest of our lives

Here it is:

We take a group photo. Possibly at the school studio(according to Eunice). We wear smart casual. And we all hold a piece of paper with the words that best describe us. Like The Holy One. Or The Plant. Or The Boy. Or The Genitals. After that we photoshop the group photo onto a cool background. Like a starry space sky. Basically, like a magazine cover. And we all pose in whatever way we want, eg: jumpshot, lying down, sitting, 1 leg up, kicking.

Rationale:
1 group photo - everyone can be seen
smart casual - people will wear clothes that will really define them. Like daryl will come in T Shirt...jia hui will come in goth stuff. i dunno. sam will come in blacks? Know sam ho will come with disney.
Words - this is where we get our memories from
studio - better photo quality? eh i not sure about this one
background - cool what

Here are some examples of what i am trying to say..







Alternatively, we could take photos wearing smart casual holding the piece of paper and whatever pose they want as individuals. Then we photo shop all of them in, forming a border around the words 2sc6 (Replace the apple with the words 2SC6)

































Here are some backgrounds JUST AS EXAMPLES




























Examples of what i meant by photoshopping onto background - Supernova / Misty Darkness
















Like magazine covers



OH yeah. The reason why im posting this now.. is cause if this takes some time you might want to get the photo ready before june holidays END hA!!
Photo shoot class outing!! =/
