Attempts at the style
Before developing my ideas i wanted see if the style was achievable so trying to create the stylized lines of that era with smudging and wear.
The postcard
For the postcard the idea was to give the postcard a quite retro look similar to artists i have looked at already such as Scott Hansen as his style doesn't seem modern.
Claes Oldenburg
I thought his work would be good to look at for my ideas. if i am to look at making the object look really big
Intial Ideas
For the Doritos brief i have drew up some intial ideas. These i thought was similar to the ideas i had. By having giant elements sat within a city and play elements on the side of buildings
The Chosen Briefs
The 3 briefs i have chosen are:
Rationales
Don’t Panic - postcard from the edge
One Day
In this brief it is required that I produce a postcard. I have chosen this brief because of it having no restrictions and the range of possibilities available. I aim to produce a postcard that looks like it has been produced in the past, for this I will incorporate the visual language of the time. The time periods that I will consider: 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s. It will be aimed at those looking for nostalgia or with an interest in that type style.
Wagamama eat out
One Week and 3 days
I aim to promote the option of taking out at the Wagamama restaurants. I aim to produce a series of posters highlighting the eat out option as well as altering the existing packaging to also highlight this option. I would continue the existing style of the poster by only using black and white with a spot red. It would be aimed the existing customers of the restaurant. Through this brief I aim to use some photography that would possibly be the emphasis within the posters.
Doritos Play
4 Weeks
I aim to communicate the Doritos play with the slogan ‘make the world your playground. I aim to produce a campaign which would involve a series of posters, environmental advertising involving the location of where the target audience would go, possible alterations to the packet design to tie in with the campaign and stickers. It would be aimed at an audience of 16-24 year olds.

Evaluation
What skills have you developed through this module and how effectively do you think you have applied them?
I feel i have developed skills in developing images in different ways and creating them in different ways. I feel its improved some existing skills and this is reflected in my work. I feel that these skills been applied strongly and effectively. Photography skills i think i have also developed which include post photography editing and taking photos, and again i feel that these skills have been applied effectively. i feel other skills i have improved are my 3-d design skills and image development.

What approaches to generating work and solutions to problems have you developed and how have they helped?
I have developed a new approach to photography which i hope to continue to use which is to sketch out what i want the photo to look like before i take it. I have developed a new approach to 3-d design.
What strengths can you identify in your work and how have/will you capitalize on these?
The strengths i see in my work involve my photography and my colouring of the images and hope to capitalize on these by developing and expanding on the style established here.I will try to produce more photography and improve on the quality of the photos
What weaknesses can you identify in your work and how could you exploit these more fully?
I am not too keen on my drawing style and i don't feel its refined as much as the photography. I feel this affects the overall finish of the work. Time management i feel for this project has been another weakness i feel that hasn't helped the finish of my work and feel i should try to manage my time better.
Identify five things you will do differently next time and what you expect to gain from doing these.
- Time management
- experiment with the style more
- more ideas developed and expanded on
- look at different angles for photography
- look at more possiblities
How would you grade yourself in the following areas:
Attendence 5
Punctuality 5
motivation 4
commitment 4
quantity of work produced 4
quality of work produced 4
contribution to the group 3
