Handed my essay in this week, and I’m quite pleased with it actually. I eventually decided to do my essay on Wim crouwel, as i am very much inspired by his work and ethos. Although i’m quite pleased with my essay, i have learnt that i have to manage my time better when it comes to writing it, and start researching earlier instead of putting it off, or focusing my attention on the other things that we have to do.
For the narrative project, i have chosen Tito stay with Salford, and focus the magazine of the arts. I went today to take some pictures of a few places, but because of the bad weather it was hard to get places! (including trains being cancelled!), I have chosen to look at Islington Mill for the historical part of the piece, and look into the restoration of the building and the events that they have there. For the contemporary part, The hub and the connection with Salford Uni, however i am struggling with the personal experience part, but i do intend to go to islington mill in a few weeks so i think i will use that. For the magazine itself i intend to use an experimental layout, like those we made at the book binding workshop, and I'm going to tryout a few layout tomorrow and see which will be the most successful.
Finally for the website i am sticking wit the Clear View UK brief however i have been neglecting this part slightly having only done a few drawings for logos etc, but I'm getting the creative suite next week so i’ll be able to get cracking with creating the website.
