My University Work: Second Year

A few second year pieces -
Editorial Piece - to produce an illlustration to accompany a written article about a man who was trying to shut out all the sound and find the perfect way to shut out all background sound.

'Nucleur Family' - This project consisted of creating three 'families' that had derived from drawing an array of single characters made up from merely a 'scribble' on the page. We then had to develop our favourite 'family' and create a story or a simple picture book containing the Mother,Father,Son and Daughter within the chosen family drawing.The story/picture book would include two selected scenario topics, I chose the Seaside and a Picnic. This was to be made into a handmade small, square, concertina book.


 'Aspects of Love' - Editorial Project - This was to illustrate an article about how parents react to their children leaving home for university. There were many options to pick out of the text-many of which i came up with ideas for- including the literal view of 'flying the nest', the negative way parents react for example, not knowing what to do with themselves or how to structure their lives when they're not organising around their children. But i opted for the positive idea of 'love' and togetherness rather than a negative seperation, as it was for an older readership i felt it would be acceptable.



'Chad Varah House' project - We had to observe the building where we study and take sketches throughout the entire building and covering areas we may not have seen before. We then had to make two final paintings or drawings both of A1 size, one to illustrate a Disteria atmosphere and one to illustrate a atmosphere.


'American to Polish Movie Poster' - This project we had to research into Polish movie posters and then create a poster of our own for a popular american movie and use the concepts that Polish movie posters use. I chose the classic Kill Bill movie starring Uma Thurman.
