The Show

The below images show the collage wall that Laura, Lexie, Aimee and I did before to get the show ready for viewing. Unfortunately we only had cheap blue tac to hold the pieces up so when the other class came in the following day, the majority of the work had fallen down. This meant that they completely re did the wall. 

The same thing happened at the beginning of the second week so Laura, Fed and I stuck the pieces back up. we used photos of the wall when it was completed to stick the pieces back in the same place.

 

The Show

This post shows images of the show when it is up and running. I took these photos when the show room was quiet so that the work could be seen properly. Before all the work was up I wasn't sure about the cork background however once the work was put up I thought it looked so much better and more modern. 

I personally think that the show was a success, especially for the first week, the VIP viewing in particular. Unfortunately the second week of the show appeared to be a lot quieter to the first week.

The Show

The picture below show the pieces of my work that have been put up in the show.

I have had all three of my Narrative Images printed A3, My Sheppard Fairey design has been printed A2, and my Christmas Card and Retro Poster have both been printed to A3. 

This is my three narrative images printed at A3 each.

This is my Rimmel Retro poster printed at A3.

This is my Sheppard Fairey style poster printed at A2.

This is my Christmas Card printed at A3.

I am pleased with how my work looks in the show and with the sizes that it was printed to. My narrative images look a lot darker printed on the glossy paper. My family and friends were also pleased with all my work and were also amazed by the standard of everyone's work when they viewed the pieces at the VIP evening.

Working for the show

I am currently working up pieces for the Show which is open in just over a weeks time. My narrative project Wolf and Little Red Riding Hood posters have been printed and my Grandma one has now been given to Babs ready for print. 


I have still got my hand drawn poster to work up for the show. After looking at the design in Illustrator I have decided that it needs to relate more to hands and that it is quite pixilated as well as confusing to use where it is a live paint document. Therefore I will spend part of tomorrow working up an improved design by hand which I will then scan into the computer to colour up. This design will include more letters and drawings of fingers.


I have also got my FMP designs to work up for the show as I feel they would look better if improved. I want to add type above the models heads with post-it notes or just written by hand to see if this will work better than the ripped paper for this. 


Today Lexie and I moved the large boards in the centre of the show room and got rid of three of the attached ones as they were taking up too much room. This didn't take as long as I expected it to take and was actually a lot easier than I expected.
