FRAMING THE HUMAN FACE

These posters were designed to advertise a 2010 exhibition at The Photographers Gallery, the idea of the posters was to highlight the main theme of the exhibition, framing the human face, to do this we were told to use three geometric shapes, to highlight interesting aspects of the images that we have taken.

I decided that to do this it would be more interesting to crop the images before taken them instead of after on a programme, to do this I created three instruments that I could use to adjust the cameras I was using.
One I didn't actually create, the peep hole in my door to create the circle image, the triangle image was created using a lens with cut out shape at the end, and the rectangular image, made using a small box with a square cut out of it, to put over the flash, thus forcing light out in a rectangle on a dark room.
  

THE LITERARY SOCIETY BOOKLET

These posters are part of a project aimed at promoting great literature of the 20th Century, the first is the actual poster that would be available for the public, it has a slit down the centre of the middle two rows, which enables it to fold down into a booklet, this is then readable and contains all of the information, as well as a front and back cover. The second poster is a promotional poster, I have simplified it and changed the colouring to demonstrate an aesthetic that relates to the principle of enjoying what you are reading or looking at.

VINYL COVER

Vinyl cover designs for the Johnny Cash single 'Mercy Seat'.

In this project I aimed to use as few lyrics as possible to complete the briefs specification of including track lyrics in the designs. I used the lyrics "lie" and "die", two that I feel some up the track in a simple and moving way. 

I have also chosen to put the tracks title and information on the vinyl as apposed to the sleeve to intrigue and lead the viewer into the design and into the sleeve.

VALUE

Part of a packaging project, which included designing packaging for my own 'value' range that consisted of feelings as apposed to objects.
