No News iS Good News- Mail Shot

Following the poster brief we were to take the same theme and research and apply it to produce 10 mail shots with a suitable mailing list relevant to the contents of the mail shot. I wanted to make mine quite interactive and included a small jigsaw inside containing important facts on child abuse.

No News Is Good News- Posters

After researching into a chosen topic the next brief was to produce three high impact posters, one image only, one text only and the last text and image all representing one fact about our chosen topics.

My topic was child abuse and I based my work around the fact, 'One quarter of children experienced one or more forms of physical violence during childhood.' Using this, I wanted to focus on the 'one quarter' and came up with the idea of cakes and slices of cake to represent one quarter.

These are my initial ideas but after being given feedback I realised they were far too extreme and didn't need to be so harsh.


With the blood and the knife the image was far too much, i then re-took the photographs without these and rearranged the image only poster.

Alphabet Soup

The Brief: To design a typeface for a full alphabet and glyphs that represents the personalitly/character of your partner.

My character was Sai and I made the decision to base my alphabet on her first memory which was Christmas in Hong Kong, I wanted to use the skyline and cityscape visuals to incorporate into the letters.

Worksheets















































After the feedback I was given in the final crit, I reworked a selection of letters with the advice I was given. I toned down the letters taking the excess buildings away so they were individual buildings with blocks of colour which would work as a set to create a skyline effect.

Alphabet Soup

We were asked to produce a series or sequence of ten letterforms that explore and communicate our own interpretation of a given word, my word being exaggerate. The letterforms we created were to be based on existing ones which we were to manipulate to communicate the word.

How to...

Group 4 work

How to still enjoy a night out when a friend becomes unwell. We decided to create a pa
ck to save all students when this situation comes along. We created a running army theme throughout and a slogan 'Save All Students'. We came up with a sick back with essential items included in it to help your friend in this situation.
