there is an old film called "the thing" and my favorite designer has just done a narrative image to do with this film, fits in with my narrative project atm and maybe the style i wanna go for

narrative image making

today starting narrative image making project. wide open brief where we have to create a narrative image to a song lyric poem or story.
all last night i was just writing down some lyrics that i had images to inside my head from such bands as deez nutz, set your goals and senses fail. when i go threw them again il post some of the lyrics i have an idea for.

kerry getz is one of my all time fav skaters, when he skates its so effortless but at the same time it can all go wrong and he has a hock temper to go with it, kinda reflects on my art work, sometimes i can draw really good and others goes all wrong then i get annoyed and gets even worse

setting up expedition

with some other students in my graphics class with our tutor we spent around 3 hours setting up an expedition space out in the hall way of past years work, sorting out what would look best where and how to arrange them on the wall.

type project

last few weeks have been working on the type project, my main idea was looking at type anatomy and taking the words creating an image for them and putting the images together. really enjoyed working on this idea but its just dont all coming together. if i had more time i would take say 9 of these words and take a photo of them stick them together in a grid and have the name of the book underneath, i did a quick mock up of this using images of google just to see what the final out come could look like, i have also looked threw the book hand job allot and got loads of inspiration from that and will just create a type for the name of the book and then recreate some of the stuff from inside the book to promote the artists who are inside.
