After working with a range of other peoples we were then allowed to work with our own designs with no limitations. 




In this task we were not allowed to work with our own desings to start off with, we had to roatate around other students work and focus on a specific area or description such as the nevk area or making somthing that was more loud than elegant, working with other peoples work was a good exercise as it allowed us to use a range of desings insted of the ones we had been working with previousley, we were also a lot less carefully with other peoples as we went straight in with the task with fresh ideas. 


Fashion

Our fast task in fashion was to create five small textured designs that would later on be used to create a much larger peice of work. We had to make the designs interesting but at the same time keep it quite simple as we had to make twenty lager versions, my most successfull design was almost two designs as i was focused on the idea of reflection and symertry, this made it a lot harder to create larger designs but in the end looked and worked well. I also didnt want them to be 2D and flat so i layerd different sections, this improved the asthetics of the design massivley as it wasnt just a flat peice of paper. 

Lens based media: short story board

For this brief we had to create our own 6 frame story board, within this story board there had to be a problem and them problem being solved to retain the equalibrium, it was challenging fitting it into a small amount of frames but it got you thinking about how important the structure is and what frames to include and what frames to exclude. 


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.
