speaking from experience - promoting safe sex to students.

For this brief i decided to work collaboratively with a friend of mine on my course. We had to decide on a topic to make aware to students coming in to the 1st year. The topic we chose was safe sex, knowing what a sensitive topic it potentially can be, we had to really think and explore different ideas. The following promotional material including flyers and posters are in our final pack we have designed. We thought that all students need stationary, so what a better way to promote an important topic with something that is constantly used, plying on the topic with the different pieces of stationary. 

All the above

 are development work.

The advertising poster. 

The front cover of the pack. 

 

The poster that will be in each pack.

animal photography - tommy martin

When looking at Tommy martins work, i was really inspired by how he captures the moment of these beautiful animals. This then made me startlooking in to photographing animals. 

Elective Photography

For this brief I had to photograph anything really, developing my photography skills. I am really content with how my photograph skills have developed, producing some of the following photos, capturing the moment, whilst considering view points and lighting. 

 

Imanual Limas work

This is a piece of Imanual Limas work, which helped me generate an idea for the brief i was set,

' Timeline. '  This particular piece of work was taken from the Graphic Magazine, where he represents information by jumbled up and confusing lines. I feel that it makes the information visually exciting rather than displaying the information in a standard pie or bar chart.

Richard Minsky's work

Richard Minsky designed these books. His conceptual approach to book design really caught my attention. The content of the series of books were based on the rights protected by the first ten amendments to the Constitution of the United States. This book was the 8^th amendment. The idea of having the book being presented as a convict in jail is very tactile and engaging. With jail bars designed to protect the book, it has been put in a situation that suits the design. Also the choice of having the black and white strips on the cover of the book is stereotyping the image of a 'robber', I feel works well.





This books helped me generate ideas for my own book design from a brief we were given, 'book of a 100.' I decided to focus my book on 100 toys. When researching on toys, i came across Toy'2'r toys, which are toys designed by individuals to represent their feeling, each one is different. Then coming to the decision of using the silhouettes of the toys, and using the research i had taken from the public, i felt that when put together in the categories, due to the different sizes of the toys it represented a convict line, and therefor i came to the decision of using the 'robber' like stripes to represent this.
