Ok, so this is the second half. As I said earlier, I’m not 100% happy with #6, it could probably do with another redesign. I’ll stick a “if I have time” pin in that one.
#7… feels unfinished. We’ll see. Again - pin.
Almost there
Alright, ¾ of the last half of the sequence done. Doing #7 atm. Not that happy with #6 of the sequence - the image is simply too busy. Need to figure out how to cope with that.
I also have a metric ****-tonne of photos to organise and print tomorrow, let alone do some sketching for the 3D Design week. I have a very pretty model, but very few ideas sketches/progression sketches for that week. What can I say? I spent most of that week staring at the model flicking cards about & stacking them. That right there is how I got to the final model, not sketching. Maybe I’ll look into expanding the shelter & lamp ideas… hrm. May be onto something there.
Week 4 - Visual Communications 5/6
Ok, so I tidied up the first 4 of the sequence. Here they all are.
Still undecided as to whether to go with the split text - keeping the font size consistent, or to go with the single line of text - keeping the placement consistent. I’ll no doubt be bouncing that one around for a wee bit.

Week 4 - Visual Communications 4/6
Second slide out of the sequence.
In other news, The Trans-Pacific Partnership (a secret trade pact with 40 Pacific Rim nations) has been all but ratified. Negotiated in secret. http://bit.ly/1hmaHte
Week 4 - Visual Communications 3/6
So, this is the first of 8 images in the sequence. The next 4 will have a very similar style, hence why I’m uploading this, so folks can get a sense of the following 4. Slide 5 will be hybrid.
Week 4 - Visual Communications 2/6
Week 4 - Visual Communications 1/6
I did not enjoy this week. But hey ho. We had to bring in a series of objects which we felt were important to us - I had a small selection, as I couldn’t fit them all on the page.
As for the final sequence, I was toying with a couple of ideas. First was to have a sequence of images with a single word stamped over the top, then I pondered using type transfer instead. The second idea was similar to this - however instead of painting and doing this by hand, I’d scan the images in and use Illustrator/Photoshop to paint the sequence.
Started the hand painted sequence using acrylic, and was rather pleased as to how it has turned out so far - as I haven’t used paint for >15 years. At some point, it’ll get finished.
Week 3 - 3D Design 2/2
So, I decided to go with a community building. A rather large one. I took inspiration from house martin’s and hornet’s nests, as well as the form of a playing card. I envisage this building being made from wood, HI-MAC stone, glass and steel tension cables, along with “living walls”.
Week 3 - 3D Design 1/2
Week 3′s brief was to create a final outcome drawing inspiration from a toy we had to bring in. I took a pack of cards, and just used the form - a simple rectangular object. The maquette below is that of a shelter - possibly for those queuing for public transport. I decided to take a different tack, as shown in the next post.
Week 2 - 35mm Photography 3/3
Mannequins. Gender bending mannequins. These are digital scans, and rather under exposed.
