Stefan Sagmeister

Really been interested in some of Stefan Sagmeister work. I like the fact that you have to look in depth of his work to see his thought process of the final piece.

Final product....... ANGER!!

THIS IS THE FINAL OUTCOME PERFUME BOTTLE CALLED ANGER!! To get to the perfume bottle you have to smash the ball. The perfume bottle will to covered in rubber so when the ball is thrown and broken the perfume bottle will not break. The broken bit of glass would break down into tiny piece that are not dangerous and you wouldn't cut yourself. The aspect of throwing the ball came back in are previous research.

More Prototypes

So seeing the problems from the last prototype, we produced more. Two with thick glass the spray painted black and white. Then another in a bronze thin glass and black thin glass. Doing this we was able to compare what look more like a final product. We decided to go for the spray painted black and white thinner glass as it looked more like a finished product that could be sold.

Similar packaging!!

Shapes found at the Science Museum. They're known as 'Polyhedrons'. The shapes reminded me a lot to do with are anger packaging design. From these picture it can help us develop into something more.

Prototype one!!!

This is are first prototype. Continuing using the glass we experimented with the way of opening the ball. We wanted the ball to be frustrating to open for or consumer so we looked into the screw to.

Problems with the screw top was that we couldn't find a frustrating way to opening the ball. Plus when you did try to open the ball the sharp glass cut your fingers which isn't very practical.

The second problem is it was to hard to match the two different pieces of glass to the line so that it wasn't visible. This was difficult as the pieces of glass touched each other and knock the pieces of glass off and it wasn't possible to get the exact position from where it started with. So lots of changes need to be changed.

Experimenting with Broken Glass.

We as me and my group related anger with broken glass. When anger we found that you want to break things throw thing and smash things. So with a polystyrene ball , glues and a collection of broken glass. I began to stuck the broken piece on to the ball. It looks like a nice object, very delicate but can cause pain when touched. So now we'll have to think of a way of opening the product in a frustrating way which makes the customer/client angry when trying to open it. Now we need to start looking into a way to make it frustrating to open.

Magazine cover

Creating my own magazine cover. Firstly we started with the heading of the magazine 'CREATIVE VISION'. We had to take are time selecting a type and mess around with the size. Then out of the 5 picture given we had to choose one we wanted to work with. Then basically mess around with the size, shape and colour of the picture, type and random shapes.

Heres the image I used and the cover of the magazine I created.

Experimenting with are ideas for emotion anger

Within are group we got together with and combined all the thing/materials we collected for emotion anger. We talked about are ideas and started combining them and experimenting.

Reconstruction of MTV logo

This was a really useful and enjoyable Workshop. I was able to up grade my knowledge of illustrator and develop the knowledge into skills.

Creating Deaf signs for my Publicity

Here I created my own alphabet for deaf people. I took photos of the hand signs and then reconstructed them on Photoshop.

Here is a close up version

OH MY GOD

OH MY GOD what a long process it was making a stick man walk across the grass. I can nowappreciate how long it takes to create an animated film. Its crazy to think about how time consuming it is. It was a nice experience to have produce a piece of animation but I don't think its me.

Its not great but its my first attempt.

BOOK BiNdIng!!!!

What a satisfying accomplishment when making book in the book binding work shop. Its skill that I would look more into as it is very useful to know.

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

Messing with Type

Using information collected on CITY LIT, I gained a better understanding of what type looks good and what type looks bad in Indesign. By closing down gaps and spaces above and in between words it can make a big impacted as well as keeping in with the same type.

It a defiantly made me more aware.
