McQ + Cliff

One of the day workshops from last term, it was communication and persuasion with Kate Rogers and we had to change the message of an advertisement of some kind. I chose a fashion one for the McQ label (youth.rebellion.outsider.individuality.rockabilly) has a painful price range that is more accessible for (awful) bankers and city boys than the misfit in 'the streets'...unless they're a fashion student. With this in mind i altered the strength of the logo (smaller so it's more boutique-y)and the image- going along with the rockabilly thing but more wrong. McQ boy looks like a young elvis so who better than young cliff?

Interactive

Today we had an 'interactive' workshop with Matt Wade from kin, as the first of 6 specific areas of design. Focusing on screens and the abundance of technology we carry around with us, we had to use them in an unexpected way to explore our new (and tiny) studio in groups of 4. i think that's an accurate description!? Anyhow, one of the images we took has popped up on Kin's flickr so i thought i'd be quick off the mark and put it on here because, you know, it's pretty fancy. OH yes, claim to fame, that IS molly's hand pressing my phone.

sneaky

not really sure how i came about it, but i ended up on sennep's flickr and found this sneaky picture of me and sarah?! It was at the beginning of the year when Sennep, among many others, came to talk about their work and set us an interactive brief for the afternoon. I look like a fool and a potential puppet. i forgot about that jumper...

It did also remind me how beautiful their work is:
