HNGD 002 Historical and Contextual Referencing: Artist Retrospective (Distinction)

without comments

For her retrospective, Shannon chose to investigate the life and works of Antoni Gaudi. Her final piece is a stunning, professionally-printed book that includes many of her own photographs and glossy pages – some of which fold open. In the back, she included a small 2009 pocket calendar in four languages.
.
Her development work was laid out on large pages and included a booklet with internet research and a Gaudi CV as well as some pamphlets she picked up from various exhibitions.

HNGD 002 Historical and Contextual Referencing: Decades (Distinction)

without comments

Shannon’s decade assignments covered the 1920s and 1960s.
.
She neatly presented her assignments in clear binders and a nice folder for development work. I will post the final submissions as well as some of her development pages. She had also included a bibliography for each decade in folders with internet research.
.
In the final submissions, she included some transparent images that were popular at the time which made a nice touch. Note that some of the scans came out with some funky colours, but as usual, it’s just so you get the idea!

HNGD 006 Ideas in Context: Corporate Identity for a Preview Night (Distinction)

without comments

Ashley chose to create a corporate identity for an IMAX movie premier of 5 Miles Deep. His final submission had to include preview night invitations, an advertising poster, brochure and a give away gift.

Ashley presented his work professionally printed and mounted on A2 foam boards along with an A3 booklet of development work and a smaller binder of research. Because he used a lot of holographic materials, it was difficult to get decent photos of some of it but you’ll get the idea.

The Final Submissions:

This is one of the shiny ones difficult to show in a photograph. You can see below how it was mounted as well.

These are photos Ashley took that he used in his final presentation with his own images and people added in to show in context.
