THE BRIGHT YOUNG THINGS

Just sent an email to the company Im hoping to be working for soon. this is one of the ideas i've come up with for there logo, this is in different colours at the moment waiting them to get back to me. Tell me what you think about the LOGO in the mean time.

The Final Deadline

So Thats the end of 'Text and Image' the final deadline was today and I handed everything in early this morning. The next project is a live brief for a charity called 'WAR ON WANT'. We had a talk a week or two ago to learn about this small ran, 'Radicle' charity. I feel that if I was to choose a brief/charity this wouldn't be the one. This will be a good learning curve to understand how to cope/handle working with a client that maybe you don't agree on all their principals.

Live Brief

With being busy I'm trying my hand at a live brief, this is quite a big one consisting of:

Logo – Project - Before xmas

Logo – Festival – Before xmas

Letter Head – Before Xmas

Business Cards – Before Xmas

Graphics for website - Jan

T shirts - April

Banners - April

Posters/Flyers for creative workshops - Feb

Information Pack - Jan

Sponsorship pack - Jan

Badges – April

This will be an on going brief throughout the year and should be good to show on my CV. The brief is called the BRIGHT YOUNG THINGS. If possible would love to hear what you see as this. I will be posting some of the Ideas up later. so you can let me know what you think.

More...

Another part of the two weeks of me not writing on my blog, I am coming up to my deadline in Text and Image. This consists of My sketch book(s) and any other pieces of work I have done over these few months. Its all due in on the wednesday at 12:00.

LONG TIME GONE

Its been a while since I posted anything one this. Its been a VERY busy couple to weeks. Since the last time I posted I when to London, where I looked round the new exhibitions at the Royal Academy of Art with Anish Kapoor and the Wild Things. Then went to the Logan Building in the D&AD for a talk from Paula Scher, and her insight into graphic design, this was really interesting and inspiring.

THE RONIN

Over the past few years there has been a company that I have been following. They're called The Ronin. There blog shows all there work over the past few years. one that people might be interested in is a short film called 'Black Day to Freedom' some great work. The two videos are the Black day to Freedom and 'things fall apart'.

I just found this film of live motion images of cities that make it look like there miniatures. have a look and tell me what you think.

Book Binding

Today I've been looking at book binding and all different ways of working and possibilities of end products. Tomorrow I will be trying to do harder styles of binding the I have previously. The two books I have looked at that have helped understand the possibilities are 'Japanese Book Binding' by Kojiro Ikegami and 'Handmade Books' by Sue M. Doggett.

DADA POEM

Just looked at the Dada poem task where i have to cut words out of a magazine and scramble them up put them in a bag and pick out 15 max words. with this we then draw an image corresponding to the sentence the words make.

This is what I got:

Access, Impatience, Recyclage, Man, You're, A, Virtue, Windows, Hot, Of, Rock

The image is still being looked at and will post this as soon as its done, I will show my working too. At this moment of time I'm looking at the single words, what they mean, and how I can relate them to the other words and if the images change if the words are together.
