Looking Back When i First started blogging

Before starting this blog in October 2009 I was a blogger virgin. I've heard of a blog but just wasn't interested in doing one. I didn't really know what a blog was, what you do or say. But now i just can't keep myself from posting blogs. I've gone from one extreme of posting 3or 4 blogs a month to posting one every day. I'm enjoying it a lot more then when i first started, i can see that its helping me grow as a designer by looking at my earlier post to my newer ones. It isn't just a reminder, development or collection of experiences for me but its also an in site for others that look or follow my blog. It shows a lot of my experience over the months as well as interesting piece of work i find. It also has links to site i visited allowing other to see what I've been looking at. I've learnt that a massive piece of text explaining what i did or see, isn't always necessary. Just a quote or sentence can be more effective then a paragraph. I feel that this blog has helped me grow and be more confident in blogging things i found, work I've produced or experience I've been through. Its become a diary to me. Just because this means has come to an end i think i will continue on blogging. Its become fun and will sure to continue.

Statistic Shape

These cones show many different piece of information. Male/Female, Blonde/brown/black/grey/red/other colour hair, age and race. The data was collected in the subway of elephant and castle. For every 0.48cm equals 1person. This was a workshop that i found interesting as we found out many thing in a 20min time limit and it you was able to show the information you found in a visual way. It made statistic fun not bland.

Scavenger Hunt

We meet at Central Saint Martins in Farrington to meet are tutor Cathrine. She gave us a task to

• Retrieve a picture of a design studio

• Retrieve a business card

• interview a graphic designer

As you can see me and my two team mates managed to do all three tasks. Doing this scavenger hunt has given me more confidence in myself to go visit place and asking for work experience, doing it this way they cant avoid you and your able to be more up front.

It was a good experience

City Lit

I decided to visit 'City Lit' adult collage. This collage is the place I've been focusing on, for are new project Education Publicity. Here are a few photo's I have taken of the place. The purpose of this was to get a better understanding of the place and atmosphere and what it does.

Eduardo Recife - collage

I came across some interesting work of Graphic Designer Eduardo Recife. I really liked they collage work he produces. He use old materials, stains and retro images to create the collages. It reminded me of the process I went through to create my 100 collages on A5 paper.

I collected images from magazines, books, newspaper and random packaging, cut the up and suck the down in an un organized order.
