3 newsies

New finished projects:

Imaging 1

Project 03- Tableau

Compose a photograph that tells a story, including a caption.

The caption says "And that's when I knew he had chosen her."

Project 04- Illiterate Instructions

Create workable instructions on how to create a task or activity, without benefit of the written word, through image sequence. Select a resonant task-location combo for the instructional flyer. Use a color photocopier as compositor to create formally engaging instructions (live photocopying). Each flyer is posted in chosen location and the studio walks around campus to see them in action.

I decided to show instructions on how to ____. I thought this activity fit best on campus at a dorm. So i posted my flyer with the other alcohol/sex education flyers in Welch. Basically, i cut out everything i wanted (people, boxes, etc) and arranged them in layers on the photocopier, printing over and over on the same composition. Its a very interesting new technique they taught us, and if it werent so expensive (25 cents a copy) i would like to play around with it more.

Studio

Project 01- Concept Map

We were each assigned an object which is to be the subject of the rest of our studio projects

for the year. I got corn. at first i was bummed. but i actually really like my subject. and as a

fellow once told me, "a wa-haw object for a wa-haw girl". Not that i consider myself a

"wa-haw girl". Anyways, we had to research everything about our object and then create a

concept map to show our research. And of course make it beautiful. We've been working on this project

since like the first day of school, and supposedly the rest of our projects rely on it as a

base, so it is crucial to the rest of the semester. Plus it counts as 30% of our final grade. So, here it is!

Typography project and another studio project in the works...
