Glitché App
Glitché offers a full range of tools and options to turn images into masterpieces of digital art. I was first told about this app by Elizabeth in a tutorial, were we discussed how I could push my imagery to another level. I was surprised how easy the app was to use, and how professional the finish of the images are. With a few taps of your finger you can completely transform your images. Below are a few examples of what I have made using the app. The app also offers the option to purchase each image in high quality for £2.50, this is important to consider when collating which images I will display in my online exhibition. Quality is something I have become incredibly aware of, especially since the second shoot I did were the images are of a very low resolution.
The accessibility of the equipment, which is the humble iPhone is complete relevant to what I have been exploring throughout this project so far. It is exceptional how easy we can alternate our peers perception of us - now within seconds. It is no longer just models on the cover of a magazine that are being retouched and alternated to such a high level. With this unlimited access we are becoming very far out of touch with what our reality really is.
With this said, I am stunned with how the images can be transform and I do not want to limit myself in anyway shape or form through the development of this project. Playing with what I can create with this app has allowed me to connect instantly with an audience and to usher in a more democratic era in fashion image making.

Although I love the effect that can be created using the app. I do not want to audience to be confused with what I have created using in camera and artistic effects on the day. If I was to combine this digitally manipulated images in with the organic, untouched images I think it would take away from the way the audience see the work. I have had a lot of positive feed from people about the work I have created and they are often in ore when I tell them I have no used any SFX postproduction on the pictures. In a way, I feel very accomplished that I have actually been able to produce such experimental visual imagery without the need for enhancement using postproduction.
Although I do not want to display these images in my online exhibition, a good way to connect with a wider audience will be to post 'online exclusive' images across my social media pages. In turn I hope this will draw the attention of creatives across the world, building up a keen interest in my project before the exhibition goes live. Using hashtags will enable people to find these pictures easily. Social media is a tool that can not be underestimated and is the current key to success for many creatives. It gives you the ability to connect and interact unlimitedly across the world with a vast array of different individuals.
