Product Research: i-D Magazine

Lately, my eyes have been opened to see that the world revolves around the genre and conventions of thriller. Why thriller? Because it asks all the questions we want the answer too. Thriller is used in films, music videos and also magazines, modelling and photography.

The first picture is an unexpected type of thriller convention, we do not instantly identify it as thriller at first glance but, however, by nature nothing is perfect, and if it is then it has buried secrets. The picture is almost too clinical to believe that it is innocent. The picture tells a story. The hand on the eye is symbolic of not being able to see the blind side. The fight between good and evil.

The fight between good and evil is a motif following in the next picture of the half face which could represent split personalities, and what we let others see and how deep we allow ourselves to see things we are guilty of. The effect of the black and white also lets our imagination play and think what hides behind what we are given.
