Vis Com


Being thrown in the deep end it felt like on my first day of this course and contextual studies, but towards the end of this rotation i found the pace not as stressful as i had first anticipated but oddly it made me think and work allot more impulsively and productively, leading to a more interesting outcome. It was  challenging having to depict every idea i had on that first day.



Brief 1:

Was given the word 'Trash' which after several different trains of thought and exploration lead to the concept of trashing things, then once joined by my partners word 'Ball' i decided to focus on the idea of balls that destroy (trash).
My end result was not as i had anticipated, but i was able to us photoshop in order to achieve my desired affect.  




Brief 2: 

i think my favourite part of the vis com rotation; using a combination of mixed media to create a final image, I worked with photos of decrepit buildings combining them with acrylic, ink, pencil, old newspaper and acetate.  i loved combining and arranging the different parts to create a new more interesting image.
 


Brief 3:


i found it hard to pick a message for this project, it took almost 2 days of playing around with ideas before i settled on my chosen one; which in truth was a little confusing, the message was 'Stop' which was transmitted from my mind to my brain, telling my self to stop giving me migraines, how i communicated this was in the stencil of the word stop on the parts of my body which were worse affected by my migraines.
