Tape

For my album cover for 'Up and Comings' 'Outspoken' my idea was to play with the juxtaposition of being outspoken and being forced not to speak.  for the album cover I decided to have a sort of tape to cover my mouth, this would then contain the album title.  Obviously the tape I have to use has to been safe for contact next to the skin, I also don't want to use household sellotape as this would not give a dramatic effect.  My search for tape ended up by a roll of silver gaff tape.  

Here is the tape;

To make sure it was suitable to be placed next to my face I quickly tested it out with a very small piece of tape.  After I was assured it was safe I then experimented with the length of tape.  Here is the best result;

After taking these shots I then filmed me pealing the tape off my mouth.  From this video you will be able to see although it does peel off, it does take a while.  therefore I shall try and only use the tape when I need to and minimise the use.
