Project 3: Lyrical Collage


The song I was inspired by was "Nothing" by The Script. They're my favorite band and this song really hit me. I can relate on different levels for what Danny (the main singer) is singing about. Really, check out the song.
My process was looking up various photos I thought fit the mood of the song and colors I thought would flow together well (black and white went well the best). I used the laso tool to bring in the two couples from their separate photos, then used the eraser tool to blur the edges of them so it didn't look so pasted on. 
I wanted it to look as if the guy is remembering the times he had with his love, but the lyrics tell us that they're just memories, since they're not together anymore. So it's a bit ironic, I suppose, since the picture looks like the lyrics would be about them being together, but...it's the opposite. Soo, that's it:) I really enjoyed being able to put a tangible picture together that expressed what I saw whenever I hear this song.

Loved this project!
