Summary

A full-bleed scanned-collage imagery spread: a taped portrait print and a column of small contact-strip frames are layered over a large, dusty blue-toned duplicate of the same fashion shoot.

Visual description

A single full-bleed composition with no running content panel, only the thin header strip at the very top ("Stills", "Design Trend Report", "V2 2026", "2.1 SCRAPBOOK / SCANNER" centered-right, page "27"). The background is a desaturated blue-toned, scanned-and-scratched version of a seated model. Pasted on top, slightly rotated, is a warmer-toned print of the same model holding a pose, edged like a taped photo with handwritten "SHOOT #34" type and a small vertical red label. To the right runs a column of small contact-strip frames showing alternate poses. Dust, scratches, and scan artifacts cover the whole image.

Key takeaway

Building one image from layered scans of the same shoot: a hero print taped over a tinted, distressed duplicate of itself, plus a contact strip of outtakes, so a single photo becomes a tactile, mixed-media object. The handwritten shoot label and tape edges sell the "made by hand, then scanned" feel.

Reuse notes

A reusable treatment for a single hero image that needs warmth and craft rather than polish. Effective for fashion, editorial, or portfolio imagery. Relies on real scan texture (dust, scratches, tape) and on having outtakes from the same shoot to build the contact strip; faking it with filters tends to look thin.
