Session Review

After struggling to find further topics to discuss in my essay I talked to fellow classmates and my lecturer to gain some advice and insight in topics they had discussed. This was worthwhile because they informed me that they had talked about the designers of the poster or discussed the history of poster and advertisement. I have decided to research the history of posters and its role in the advertisement since it may be more relevant to my essay so long as history is brief.

I have also discovered so online articles and observed their design and layouts.

Pukka Pies Re-invention Session 2

-
Tuesday 21st April 2015 Session Review Following on from the previous Pukka pie session, I continued to sketch different typography fonts and continue my secondary research on Pukka Pies the company. During the time I browsed through the website I came across their news page detailing all of the companies recent activity and I noticed that they had appeared to sponsor quite a few local sports teams from Leicestershire or sports events such s the 2009 World Snooker Championship. Additionally, they also awarded prizes to the best chip shops around the United Kingdom likely for their level of service and possibly whether they are able to sell a large quantity of pukka pies since most chip shops feature them inside. Also, Pukka Pies would be sponsoring the television show Friends on Comedy Central and because of this new sponsorship they produced a series of short advertisements of four friends eating various pukka pies; furthermore, after reading of this newfound information it woul...

Sunday 19th October 2014 Session Review After considering other fairy tales stories such as Little Red Riding Hood, Rumpelstiltskin and Peter Pan. I have decided to go with my first choice of retelling the tale of the Billy Goats Gruff. I have first begun my research by sketching symbols that represent the three goats and a few symbols for the troll underneath he bridge. I have also written and broken down in simple stages the tale of the Billy Goats Gruff from my own memory. References D. L. Ashliman (2000). Three Billy Goats Gruff .

Lawyer and Bar Logo Design Session 3

-
Tuesday 9th December 2014 Session Review Continuing from last weeks session I have decided to leave the ancient gods alone for now and use animals instead. Thankfully, I have finally created a strong concept for the lawyer logo; however, I decided to use take further research into heraldry and since heraldry and historical culture sand design is a passion it will help add enthusiasm to designing the final lawyer logo. As for the town logo task It was nice to discover new facts and receive a deeper knowledge of both Sparkbrook and Hallgreen. I may add  that I thankfully learned only a few small new facts which is good because it proved to myself that I know both of my respective hometowns, ......
