SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE - PLAN



Problem - Not knowing when you are working with a bad idea or more commonly known as 'polishing a turd'.

What I shall do - Inform the coming year how to identify when they are working with a turd.

How - The concepts for delivery include pillowcase and bedding, instruction manual and t-shirt.

CMYK

'CMYK Magazine is where aspiring creatives showcase their talents to an industry driven by inspiration and new ways of creative problem solving. At the same time, CMYK Magazine is where creative directors, agency principals and art buyers recruit students and recent graduates at today's top art-design schools: art directors, copywriters, designers, photographers and illustrators.' CMYK.com

CMYK

It's a better magazine than Creative Review which has no content in my opinion. CMYK showcase's contemporary American design, it's a California based magazine. I will post examples of work once I can get to a scanner.

THINK OF ENGLAND

I plan to work and live abroad (again) once I finish the course. The poster design below is for a club I lived opposite. I like the illustration it's similar to Vorticism which fits Berlin very well. Below the poster is Moby's new video directed by David Lynch. It's surreal feel and black and white style suite the music. I'd like to develop towards more animation and video based work next year.
