Today was our 1 day project, I teamed up with a lovely girl called Layla and we really got on well in a group, we discovered that we both had the same interests and it made the project sooooo much easier as we agreed on everything! We were given a piece of writing which said 'sum up your day' and we had to make a illustration based on that, which would be used to promote the college course with. We thought of the idea exploring everything we like, because most of the time i find myself looking at all the images I like, and that's something that would attract a lot of people to the college! 'Feed yourself' as Layla's teacher always told her student's too 'Feed themselves' with imagery as much as possible - so that worked out pretty well! We began working on collage, since we both enjoy it, and mixing it with out own illustrations, so we got on it right away and got a magazine to cut up - most girls love fashion magazines right!? So we started to think about the layout, and it would be a woman, eating all the things she liked, for example, paint brushes, becaue she enjoys painting, birds, because me and Layla loooove them, and also words which we come across in everyday illustration / design courses, also letting the perhaps future student's what is coming their way if they joined the course. We used words such as 'play', 'create', 'art', 'styles' to intrigue the viewer. It would be aimed at young adults most likely. Our slogan was of course 'feed yourself' they were the perfect descriptive words for what we were trying to say. As we were running short on time, we put together some illustrations and collages, then took a font which i had previously created for my Album cover one day project, it looked super good!
Here is our final image! We were really pleased because given the short space of time I think we managed it well, we placed 3rd in the competition we had at the end, drawing with someone else and there were quite a lot of people!
