Brief: Speaking from experience

Brief:
Events in Leeds other than studying and drinking
Who:
First year graphics
What:
a) Events, exhibitions, shops places in Leeds (Based on design)
b) Bike Rides around Leeds
c) General artists work in Leeds
Why:
I feel that after the first year there is a lot of advertising in nightclubs and drinking offers in Leeds, but if you want to look for something to do rather than drink the information is hard to find.
What: 
Some form of resolution offering a b or c things to look at research into places events ect.

*However I feel that this could do with being solved but it is to similar to the project on try something new brief. I would like to do a brief more humurous rather than serious.

Brief:
Worrying about missing something important or handing work in at the correct time.
Who:
First year graphics
What:
How to make an excuse. (Maybe tell them something that will get them in trouble-just for a laugh) Fred said ect...
Why:
If they use these excuses they would understand what they said later on in the course.
What:
A series of flick books- been experimenting with them in Visual Language. Bible style? Satans bible of excuses. 
Research:
Look at obvious excuses that would get them into trouble
Location and content will be important and delivery
Box set bible style 
Materials ect

What is a line? Influenced by Oscar Wilson

Burger King

       McDonalds

KFC

I have wanted to try and use hand drawn type to represent the shape of an object/ image for a while and as this project doesn't need to be finalised I felt this would give me the opportunity to experiment with the idea. I really like the final outcomes however for next time I would consider colour and type more and also draw alot bigger so it doesn't pixallate as much. The influence was from Oscar Wilson. I have some of his stuff on my DC blog for a while and I have also printed off a few images to put with my Sketchbook.
