film inspiration

I found the film 'step up 3' inspirational as there is a dance scene and the dancers are wearing masquerade masks.


I also found the film 'Vahelsing' inspirational, as there is a ball room scene and it shows what an 16th/ 17th century balls were like 


insperation for my mask

I have developed the word bus and it has lead me to traveling. I have always wanted to travel to Venice, it is a beautiful place and has an amazing history. I did further research into Venice and found that it was one of the first of many places to have masquerade ball masks.
I have been looking at some inspiration on how to make a mask and have found this video very inspirational   but I do not think i will use this method to create my mask.

labeling

I have decided to give my garments or accessories a label, this is so people recognise my brand.
This is a repeat of my label, I will print my image onto transfer paper and Then I will heat press the image onto fabric to create multiple labels.


I had to flip my image so that when the image is printed onto transfer paper then heat pressed the image onto fabric the writing will be the correct way round





The image below is of the label heat pressed onto fabric
