Lens based media

Our first task in lens based media was to get some random character ideas down for our story board we was going to create, after this as a team we chose one stand out character that we had to build a short 6 frame story out of, this was just to get us into the thought processes of the story board and get us thinking about the structure of the story. 

Graphics: poster for suture exhibition in 2033

We had to create a poster about our exibition that will happen in 2033, mine was about my fashion show peices shown in the V&A, for the poster i wanted it to be in a rugged contempory style, i also wanted it to be less abour me as a person and more about my work thats why i decided to cover my face and leave my clothing clearly viewable. 

Graphics: creating and developing typography

We started off by trying to find letters out of shapes we created with different mediums and techniques, for example dropping the pin on the page or putting a pen in a cup and letting it rol around the page, we the found letters with in the shapes, we chose our favorite technique and used it to create a full alphabet, this experiment was to make our us think about new forms of typograhy and allow us to ignore normal forms we see everyday.

Our brief for the challenge was to draw peoples faces but by using different ways of doing so, for example we had to use our left hand, put the pen in our mouth, one blind folded and one continous line. 

3D Design: structure created out of spaghetti that could hold three plastic balls

Our brief was to create a structure out of dry spaghetti that could hold three plastic balls without them touching each other, as the spaghetti was very brittle with little bend it was also very prone to breaking, i found that using a number of strips together reinforced my design and made it stronger, i also used my knowledge from previous tasks and continued to use the  triangular and x shapes to create a strong successful structure that supported three plastic balls that did not make contact. 

3D design: building a stable bridge.

We had to create a stable bridge that would support a remote control car as it drove over it, also it had to be tall enough to fit a table underneath it. This time we had to work as a group so we soon came up with many ideas, we decided that X and triangle shapes were the strongest so we focused on using many of them for the structure.
