Alpha-bet update

The final part of my alpha-bet project, the letters put into flash to make a short animation. Some quality was lost uploading the video however.

Work Experience

Designing a website for General Paulus aka, Gregg.
A few screen shots to show my progress...

Social Calendar

Glastonbury!!
Based on a postcard to achieve a 'wish you were here' look as I always feel like all my friends should enjoy Glastonbury with me too. It has band recommendations and then space for the user to fill up themselves.

Missing Poster

My poster is based on my confidence in myself and my work. It is something that I need to build up, which is why I have used building blocks to show this.

Professional Practice Semester A - Update

New project. Knife Crime photography book.

Celebrity Cheese Board

Kate Bush

My 7 cheeses I have chosen

Halloumi - 'Squeaky Cheese' represents Bush's high pitched voice.

Camembert - 2 textures, it has the harder outside and the soft and creamy middle. This fits in with how Kate Bush has 2 personalities, herself and Cathy from Wuthering Heights.

Cheddar - Very popular and English.

Mozzarella - A summer cheese, Kate Bush was born in the summer in July.

Saint Morgon - A very smelly cheese so would often be left on its own. Kate Bush has admitted to being a 'loner' at school.

Caerphilly - A vegetarian cheese due to it containing no rennet. Kate Bush is a vegetarian.

Cream Cheese - Smooth and soft like Bush's music.

Re-Package

Commodification

'Posh Cheese on Toast'
A 16 page booklet on cheese and toast that has been commodified to become of more value and not seen as just plain original cheese on toast.

Rhythm and Rhyme

'My first nursery rhyme book'

Few pages from the book I put together...

There are 20 pages altogether in the book.
I have also made a blog for this project called 'Colour me a rhyme'. It is where parents can print off uploaded images that relate to nursery rhymes for their children to colour in.

Alpha-bet

"Design your own alphabet by investigating the vernacular form of your spoken & written language(s). How is it influenced by the lettering and layout you see, hear and use everyday. Using your research sketch/draw then digitize your alphabet." My alphabet is based on touch type and how you position your hands for each letter. The black squares symbolise the main positions your fingers stay in, and the red squares are the position of the letter that is pressed. The final outcome is a short animation made in Adobe Flash.
