Life Cycles Week 4/Half Term work.


You should have a series of images now for possible inclusion on your leaflet.  You need to make sure you have enough variety of imagery to enable you to make a good leaflet.  Aim to get up to date with all research and practical work – acetate collages, expressive type, all forms of printmaking, drawing etc.  The more the better as you will be also be asked to complete imagery on the leaflet to fill each of the 8 boxes on one panel with varying images to show:

1)     Abstract:  An image showing a section, portion or heavily cropped image that has been developed using paint\expressive mark making.

2)     Representational: An image taken from observation or a photograph that resembles an object or figure.

3)     Linear: An image using line only but can involve colour and surface additionally.

4)     Collage: An image using found materials newspapers, magazines, fabrics, metals etc.

5)     Pop Art: An image which uses symbols, signs and other well understood images within our culture i.e. male ♂ and female ♀ symbols, x and y chromosomes, kisses xxx, targets, +,  =  signs  → ?     £    $,  icons of popular culture, film stars, pop stars, images of consumerism e.g. packaging labels, advertising, domestic appliances.

6)     Photographic: This includes any of your location shots, studio set ups, black and white, colour, digital photography experiments with Polaroids.

7)     Photomontage:  Collage using photographic imagery cut and pasted together.  Humorous or satirical images e.g. Monty Python’s Meaning of Life.

8)      Text: An image made up entirely from layered text using provocative statements, information, famous sayings, a line from a poem, personal important diary entry dates etc.  Your message should be clear and emphatic and come from your life cycle.

IT IS VITAL YOU HAVE AT LEAST 15 STRONG VARIED IMAGES TO WORK FROM TO MAKE YOUR LEAFLET. There will a bit of time to add to your images produced so far but you are strongly advised to make sure you have completed everything to date well.
Look up https://handmadefont.com/ and pick 3 fonts that are expressive and inventive.



Show examples of inventive font within a moodboard and annotate why you are drawn to these.  Use these as inspiration to produce your own expressive messaging using found materials, objects at home i.e. the word death could be produced with soil, bones, twigs etc.
E.g. The word teenager could be made up from make up, clothes, graffiti, headphones, music, food etc.
Produce 3 expressive messages using varying materials and found objects. Photograph these and edit for printing in your sketchbooks.

LIFE CYCLES Week 3


In terms of imagery you should be in the middle of producing:
             One sustained painterly piece.
             Monoprints and gold card prints.
             Mixed media collages – acetate collage and one other.

GRAPHIC DESIGNER RESEARCH
Before you start work on your own leaflet layouts you need to build your awareness of existing graphic design, you need to research 2 graphic designers - one historical and one contemporary.

HISTORICAL DESIGNERS:

Paul Rand

Alvin Lustig

Saul Bass

Milton Glaser

CONTEMPORARY DESIGNERS:

Eddie Opara

Stefan Sagmeister

Neasden Control Centre

Why Not? Associates


             Pick one piece of work from each and review how they communicate their ideas. 
             Briefly summarise their background, What are they best known for?
             Who have they worked for and how do they use imagery to communicate a message?
             How do they use Logos or posters to sum up and advertise a company?
             What visual language do they use to create an aesthetic language i.e. silhouettes, overlaid imagery, geometric forms, negative space etc.
             What is the purpose of this image? i.e. To advertise what exactly?  Please DO state the obvious!

PRACTICAL RESPONSE
             Work in the style of these with your photographs and produce 4 responses in all.
             Select 4 apt slogans to work with to relate to your life cycle and begin experimenting with techniques to enrich your work. 
             Develop a series of experimental positive or negative slogans to accompany your images for the leaflet.

LIFE CYCLES WEEK 2


PHOTOSHOOT NO 2:

Plan for another a photo-shoot that concentrates on a slightly different aspect of your theme . This could show objects as well as figures and use the location you have chosen in the best light.  Plan using storyboards showing extreme viewpoints - close ups, low angle, high angle, things in and out focus, shadows, lighting, action and movement.  
You will need at least 10-15 strong location images, you may need to take considerably more shots to achieve 10 good ones.  Try something different and consider the use of tripods, filters and wide angled, fish eye or macro lenses. 
As always make sure you print out wallet images of your unedited images and then larger prints of the edited ones that you feel are the most effective.
You  MUST annotate in your sketchbooks for unit 30 (Location Photography) so please do this as you go.  
Ensure you write about:
       Why you have chosen this particular  location?
·                  Composition
       Depth of field
       Contrast
       Texture
       Colour
       Sense of movement if appropriate
       Framing and Subject placement- how have you placed your subjects with reference to the light source  and location
       Lighting- spot lamp, soft, torch, natural.

LEAFLET RESEARCH

Find two examples of interesting leaflets and stick these into your sketchbook.
Answer the following:                                                   
       How is colour, text and image unified?  Comment on the layout, composition, or transition.
       Is there a regular position/scale/ for the text on the page?
       How is the type face integrated or contrasted with the other imagery?
       How is the front and back cover connected?
       How many images are used?
       What is the tone of the message? ie fun and feel good, shocking and serious etc
       Can you explain how marks , symbols and images have they been cleverly put together?

TECHNIQUE WORK/DRAWING:
Series of printmaking monoprints, and gold cards -  4 as a minimum using your photographs and other secondary images. Also some sustained drawing, we'll do some timed expressive ones in class.

Please have ready by next Wednesday 16th May  :
  • ·         10-15  photographs from  your second shoot with up to date annotation
  • ·         Leaflet research
  • ·         4 sustained  images from printmaking.
  • Sustained and expressive drawings.

Vocational Scenario or context






The South Bank centre are having a pop up temporary exhibition with photographs and art work .  They have asked you to produce some visuals within a leaflet that promote  the idea of ‘Life Cycles’.  You are asked to  produce a 6 sided leaflet on 1 stage in life  Within the leaflet you will need to follow a grid format that will form part of your leaflet but apart from this theme can interpreted in any way you wish using photographs and mixed media.  You will use workshops within lessons to explore a wide variety of techniques and processes.

        Mindmapping - research, development of concepts, photography shoots, drawing, workshop techniques      
        Location Photography- research and  specific workshop techniques working from your photographs .
        Leaflet and Graphic design – research and development  producing  mock ups, and resolving the leaflet, evaluation.

Within this project you will experience the area of Graphic Design: how to mind map, develop slogans, captions and take these through to a concept. This project requires you use photography and create your own inventively manipulated imagery.  It encourages you to explore different visual language within Art & Design i.e. the difference between abstract figuration, collage and photomontage. 

Here are some past students work for this project from both the final leaflets and from sketchbooks



Task 1









 WEEK 1


 LIFE CYCLES to choose from:

BIRTH
PARENTHOOD
TODDLER
DIVORCE
TEENAGER                                            
MARRIAGE                       
MIDLIFE CRISIS
LOVE  
DEATH
RETIREMENT

WEEK 1

1.       Produce a series of pages mindmapping for at least  2 of the  life cycles , working in small groups. P2

2.       Choose 1 life cycle to explore in as much depth as possible.  Produce 6 pages that explore your ideas in greater depth. This should include:  mind mapping, word association, mood boards, photographs, photocopies of objects, magazine cuttings, extracts from poems, slogans, observational drawings etc.  Write down everything to do with an idea not just a single word but everything to do with that theme:  e.g. marriage could be mind mapped in the following way:  - an American Las Vegas styled marriage.  P2

Mindmap: Las Vegas , the chapel of love, Elvis impersonator, side burns, 1 armed bandits, double your money, everyone a winner , poker, lots of tack gold, American flag, dollars signs, Stretch Limousine Cadillacs, wedding lyrics, four weddings and a funeral, white veil, Elvis white jumpsuit, renting a witness, best man, lady in waiting lyrics from songs about getting married, honeymoon suites, the film ‘Leaving Las Vegas’ and famous sayings from this.  All of these words could be visualised in varying imagery, textures, found objects and marks – make yours as exciting as possible!

 You will now have a definite ‘concept’.  A concept is a way into your life cycle that makes us think in a certain way.   i.e. different ways to get married to might  be :- a tacky wedding ceremony  in  Las Vegas, an extreme parachuting/ bungee jumping experience or  ‘my big fat gypsy wedding’ .

EVALUATION  GRAPHIC IMAGE MAKING  P4,M1,D1,

Pick 2 of your graphic images that you feel are important within your leaflet and evaluate them  in minimum of 800 words:

1.    Describe the two pieces, what techniques and decision making have you decided upon to  manipulate them and why they are effective for your theme and communicate the’ tone’ of your idea.  ie scratchy writing to suggest anger or teenage angst  or soft vintage filters on Photoshop to suggest time and marriage past.   How successful do you think these graphic effects are within your work  and  why?

2.   What symbols have you used within your graphic images on any parts of the leaflet or sketchbook?  Symbols are universally understood such as kisses, crosses, thumbs up, hearts, ying and yang, religious symbols etc

2.    How have you edited your images to fit the format of the leaflet, what  did you do to these?  Write in detail describing your efforts within Photoshop, Adobe Bridge, cropping, saturation, tone, contrast, brightness, clone tools  etc.

4.    What do you want the viewer to think when they see these images - a feeling for the moment, a sense of nostalgia, atmosphere, poignant reflection.

5.    How has text appeared on your leaflet?  What font have you chosen and what feel have you tried to communicate?

7.   Of the differing approaches to image making that you were asked to explore, which final images do you think are the most successful and why? Discuss each approach in turn.     Consider mentioning things such as formal elements, aesthetics, the use of tactile qualities, markmaking, simplicity, linear effects, layout, experimental use of media.
8.   How would you resolve, modify or change the final piece of work you have produced if you had a further 5 weeks of study. Do you think you have used your time wisely within this project?  How have you used lessons, private study times and have you stuck to the interim homework deadlines?


EVALUATION LOCATION PHOTOGRAPHY P1,P 4,M4,D3

1.    Explain what you understand by the term location photography, what kinds of photography do you  think this covers?

2.    What photographic equipment did you use to capture your photographs?  Please detail this and the settings you used on your camera/phone.?

3.   Who did you look at for this project and how did their work  impact upon your ideas?  Please be specific ie discuss elements of atmosphere, composition or concept that helped your work.

3.    How do your photographs relate to the location photographers you were asked to look at?

5.   Compare one of  your favourite own photographs on  location in relation to one of the photographer’s pieces.

6.   What kind of organisation of people and places have you had to do to arrange for your shoots to take place? Discuss your intention of location, composition, lighting, shutter speed, filters, and any other production techniques, use of dark room or digital, editing that you used to modify or enhance your image?

7.   Which 2 best photographs did you create on location and how did you produce these? If they were digital, can you discuss editing you did?.    What have you done to edit these  and what  programs have used to do this. ie Photoshop and Adobe Bridge, etc
