104: Format of delivery

Mock up of how the book would work. 

The problem with this is the acetate doesn't fit over the map because of the gap in middle of the book to hold it together.

It was meant to be pulled out with information on of different events ect and you pull the acetate over the map for information. 

Need to keep the design simple and well made. 

Also make sure the content is clearly delivered. 

Letterpress Layout

The layout of the letterpress boxes with type in. The reason it isn't in alphabetical order is that it was designed for the middle section to be parts more used than the parts in the left and right hand side.

Visual Language Type & Grid.

Trying to work out the grid system used for the newspaper using other pages from the paper to compare them together. Red line is the grid mainly used through the paper.

104: Magazine scale and format

Stylefile Magazine- Really like the landscape layout, maybe because they are not as common as portrait.

Inside the layout and grid system. Not really a big fan of how the contents was layed out but thought I would make a note of it.

104: Colour Scheme

After clearing out the collection of flyers and leaflets I have I found this Gatecrasher flyer and liked the colours used.

I think that if I changed the black to a very dark blue and scraped the light blue it would be a nice colour scheme. I like the lines in the image but after I realized that the Lion had a UK flag through it I wasn't so keen on it.

Thought I may as well use the back of the flyer for layout and type inspiration.

After evaluating and finding the colours I don't know if I will use it as I'm not sure if it is relevant to my project...

104: New York Travel Guide

A city guide I had in my room of New York so I thought I would Look at it for inspiration but baring in mind it was published in the 90's...

Front page the train map for the city.

Map on the left with the bars and addresses on the right hand side

Places to visit labeled in alphabetical order. Ideal if you know where you are looking for but the places I am advertising will be places to visit rather than the pubs/bars so places they won't really know about especially if their new to the city

Double Page Spread of the city. Breaks up the layout of the guide.

A scan that went wrong but it looked alright so I thought I would include it.

104: Art in Leeds

One idea of things to do in Leeds rather than study or drink. Looking at the art side in leeds/bike rides/or a booklet with different Leeds artists in.

An idea of people forgetting to do their blogs ect. Look at temporary tattoos to stick to their hands ect. Then i thought of a humour side of using the tattoos for peoples forehead or in beard shapes ect and put together a photo album of them covering the tattoo up for example if someone was thinking and had their hand on their chin and the next image is the hand moved away and you can see the beard tattoo with text on to remind them to do their visual language work tonight. I'm not sure if this would of lasted five weeks however.

A few quick ideas- after the Fred talk based on do you make it serious of humour I produced a few more ideas based on the different tones.

A list of what I would want to collect on activities on the art side of Leeds. 

GFSmith paper stock

After the Visual Language session where we had to bring in different stocks, I found this book in a library in Nottingham and made a small donation for it.

What is a line?

For this brief I had many ideas based on the formation of people, objects or things. But I thought it would make my life easier if I choose one subject to base the project on and keep on exploring different styles and resolutions with. I choose to base the project on the formation of Burgers. To look at different restaurants and different types of burgers to compare with each other.

Virus Partnership Brief

Trying to think of ideas how the content would be delivered. Thinking about using mobile texts when someone has a limited time or cost and we send a message back matching their criteria.

Thinking about how the idea will work and justify why it would work.

A few ideas how it could be resolved.

What pages we will need and what order for the interactive dvd to work.
