Summer Project

Words of Wisdom
project giving to us to do over summer giving are advice to the new 1st years...

what would you pass down?
what have you learned yourself?





CABE

This project was for us to work with mentors from industry - my mentor is Alan Lennon from Lennon Designs

the brief was to raise the profile of public parks... my idea is to create nostalgia, for grown ups to remember why they liked going to the park.










Save Our Pubs

The brief - Public houses, boozers, secound homes -call them what you will- have been the heart and soul of the British community for centuries. But our pubs are now in peril and actually closing down at a rate of 52 a week. Your challenge : use the power or branding to bring pubs back from the brink and get the beer and good times flowing once again.




The way i looked at the brief was that "Save our Pubs" was an organisation that has events every month to try and raise the profiles of pubs around Britain. The first even i thought they would hold was a pub crawl day/night... day time for families and night time for people who want to party.

Were bringing Monster Back...

Monster Munch was a YCN brief for last year. It became a huge project for myself, Kay Cochrane and Rachel Patrick. We are the various monsters. Me = blue, Rachel = red and Kay = yellow!


We decided in order to catch our audience of  students who grew up with Monster Munch (and people that didn't) was to tap into clubbing culture. We created a viral campaign that has worked so well for many companies. We needed a catchy song so Rachel's friend DJ Tim put together this mix for us and then we got to work, dancing shoes, a stop-motion set of pom-poms and the monsters on a dancefloor (created with Kay's PATIENT!!! hands) and a lot of fun (and fake eyelashes , along with neon make-up) later and we had this, which 
we all would say we are proud of.


It works so well as a campaign to a set of events that would begin in Freshers week. Fun and Monster shaped corn snacks all round!





Magazine

Project in which we where to choose any genre of magazine and create a front cover and 4 double page spreads. And all so create the Mast Head for the magazine.


I decided to do a gaming magazine, which took me out my comfort zone , not a gamer you see but lucky me the people in my class are which was a big help getting to know what they would like out of the magazine. most of them said that they liked to write down their thoughts on the game and how to pass level and things, so i wanted to give them room to do this in my magazine.








BookCover


Asked to design two book covers for NHS books, one on mental heath issues and the second on binge drinking in scotland.




Tourism

We where asked to develop a concept for attracting more tourist to Scotland... i had the idea of Scotland's hidden treasures, places tourist would not normally see.
