Brief: Research 20 different art movements from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries, and then use the information to create a timeline of art and graphic design over that time period aimed at young people. Final outcome to consist of 4 A5 or A4 pages rather than the whole timeline.
We had recently studied David Carson and the layouts he designed so I used his style as my inspiration. As the brief featured time and history, I decided to create the timeline with a Steampunk theme.
I focused on 3 art movements, one from each century, and the front cover. The final piece was printed on a sheet of A3 and folded into quarters but as the actual file has half the image upside down, I amended it to a strip so it was easier to see it all.
NB: I didn't create the Steampunk font that's used on the front cover, it was from Digital Artist magazine and free for personal use.
Brief: create a mock entry for the Arriva Art Bus competition (design something that would completely transform a double decker bus into a piece of art, both inside and out).
I decided to take the idea literally and made it an Art Bus: a bus covered in works of art. I wanted it to have both well-known and obscure artists and paintings, and be a kind of mobile art gallery, travelling around the country and introduce the general public - non-art gallery goers - to art. The inside continued the theme of an art gallery and could be used as an exhibition space for local artists.
The design for the bus was created in Photoshop CS5 using a template supplied by Arriva. The entire bus was given a red-orange base layer with a wooden wainscoting to represent a art gallery's interior. Each window of the bus was covered with a framed painting. Finally, small details were added such as shadows and tones.
The painting on the front of the bus is Birth of Venus by Sandro Botticelli.

My photography coursework for this year. The idea was to take 5 photos of someone in the Brighton & Hove area which would show their job or hobby. I was lucky enough to find Dave, who makes puppets.

At least three shots had to include our subject, and at least one didn't
For this assignment I was given the title "Emptiness". I decided to go with a more serious approach, and make a provocative photo related to a serious problem that lingers in many groups of people: mental health, and its relationship with alcoholism.
For this assignment, I was told to include 2 - 3 composition techniques. The amount of light: the theme is dark, and it is evoked through the use of low light, except for the room hidden behind the door. The colors are dim and slightly blue which is a color set associated with depression and sadness.
Coursework deadlines are coming and it's getting me stressed. I cannot wait until its all over. Today's image is probably the best way I can visually describe how I'm feeling about it; overloaded.
