<div><div/> means it creates an invisible box to change a chunk of content

#abox {background-colour: blanched almond; width: 300px; padding: 20px; margin40px; }

Width= size across page

Padding= inside box

Margin= outside the box

#abox h2 {………}  makes everything that is within the box and heading 2 a certain colour and size etc

 

Change of Idea

I have found that my original idea of a a magazine which is a collaboration between Wes Anderson and Miu Miu, will be too difficult to achieve as I have no access to real Miu Miu clothing and generally have found  that after  trying to do a shoot the imagery won’t be as successful as I would have liked. I then decided to think about the aspects of this idea which I like and to try and take that forward. I feel the glamorous and sligtly tacky side of Miu Miu’s look is something I am drawn to and feel that this is something I should look further into. I am going to look into the different aspects of Glamour and how it can be seen as different things, including Hollywood Glamour, Glmaour Models, 70’s Glam, and others.

The proposal: social media- Periscope

I wanted to use a new social media app which was up and coming and had a buzz around it to collaborate with the brand and also as a way of getting the public to share imagery from the event. I decided upon the company ‘Periscope’, which is a livestreaming video forum which allows anyone to watch instant filming of locations and events  and allows users to ask questions. I feel this will work well with the young target market as it is current and will most definitely become a new craze.

social media

I have created examples of how the app will be used to share events and publicise Jil Sander. During the main catwalk event the live streaming from Jil Sander co-ordinators will be shown on large screens around the world to create a buzz and interest over the brand as seen in the image below.

the proposal: the event staging

Within the staging of the event there will be a repetition of the idea of encasing decayed wood as seen in the invite. To do so, the seating will be made of perspex boxes which contain large logs of decaying wood. The stage will have the new Jil Sander logo on and will use interactive lighting, so that when a model walks on a specific colour it will light up.
