Original Design

This was our opportunity to make any final variations on our design before they are presented at the meeting and a design  is chosen. 

The first variation I wanted try was to make the reeds look more realistic..

I also wanted to make the moon a little off centre and make it look a bit more abstract..

And finally I played around with the colours but i came back to the midnight blue which I was very happy with.

At the end of the class we all placed our favourite design in the shared folder so that we could all check each others out and reflect on each others designs. It was great to get everyone's opinions and give our own opinions on each design. I really loved doing this and getting feedback from the class. Sometimes im not completely confident in my capabilities and its great to get opinions & suggestions from the class on how I can improve my design. 

I found this little clip on You Tube and it reminded me a little of our class. Its not the most fantastic clip and its clearly on a budget but the idea of it made me think it could very easily be our class. 

A group of 6 Art & Design students were presented with The Bomb Project and were challenged to design a 2D or 3D typography on the 'buzz' word SHOP and elaborate on the concept of advertisement. They had to work together as a team and brainstorm together for 3 days to complete the presentation.
