Development of End of Year Show Proposal...

After tutorial with Fred regarding my proposal we have edited the first banner quite a lot and the second one is having a few changes.

Banner 1:
No longer has a full length image of old wives' tales brief, but is now broken down into 1 large image and 5 smaller squares. The brief has also changed; it is now the italian food brief.

Banner 2:
The arrangement and positioning of the patterns has altered slightly but is generally the same. The homeware logo is going to be in the largest square and my branding logo has been dropped.
I thought i was going to have to reshoot the italian food brief as the resolution was not high enough, however I was interested in developing the layout and seeing how I could crop into the photographs to try and create some more abstract images that make you want to look at the portfolio.
Some of these work better than others but I am glad I have done it as I now know what kind of photographs I need to be taking of the products.

Mini CV...

This the mini CV I am including in my mailshot pack, however I am unsure what I am missing if I made this into a standard A4 one. I also am unsure how to make it into a standard A4 CV, the format etc needs to change.

Development of End of Year Show Proposal...

After end of year show crit with Fred and Lorenzo this is my revised proposal.

End of Year Show Proposals...

Had end of year show tutorial the other day and I took these initial proposals with me. Originally I thought I wanted the 3d objects on show/on shelves so people could see the detail close up. However after talking to Fred, Lorenzo and the rest of my group it has been decided that 2 banners would be better for my work and would allow more impact. It also means people can't and won't pick up my work and then put it down again in the wrong place etc.





However, after talking to Fred, Lorenzo, Jess, Sara and Alex we have decided that I should produce 2 banners instead of having the 3d objects on show.

Latest website layouts...

I have finally set up my website and uploaded a number of briefs. I have also included my old wives' tale brief even though I have not finished it yet. I think once I have finished FMP I will sit down and edit my website more then. I will have new pieces of work I want up there and I also want to edit the layout and body copy slightly.
