Over the last week, I have done some research including doing a PEST analysis, and figured out a purpose for my book, and where it would fit in the market. From my research and my ideas, I concluded that my photography book was heavily inspired by Dafy Hagai, and my concept was based around wanting to produce something that is happy and uplifting. From this, I decided that my photography book would be part of a series of books,that explores different cultures in different countries, and celebrates the communities in their natural form. The book series would explore several different countries and I am starting with Portugal as I have a personal connection to it. This tutorial I spoke about my progression, and also began to think further into the possibility of creating a behind the scenes video to release with the book.
This week I have also created a flat plan, and a draft layout using images from the internet to make the process of producing the layout of the book quicker and easier when returning from Portugal.
