Through keeping this Blog, I have been able to successfully portray all the decisions and experimentation's that I have had to make to get top the stage of my project now.
My idea's throughout this project have changed several times, but the one thing that I have kept the same from day one is the linking meanings of 'Obsession' and 'Guilty Pleasures'.
Near the beginning of this project I had decided to create a flyer for a new fashion range, or boutique shop, I stuck with this idea for ages, unsure of the end result when it came to giving my piece a name or deciding on the details like the location of this show, and questions such as:
'do I implement a list of designers on a page of this flyer?'
'Will I be designing this advertisement piece for a fashion show?', 'Will there be a shop part advertised?'.
It wasn't until I had a WIP session with Derek, Louise and Chris, where I was admitting i was stuck when it came to visualising my end piece that I decided to change things to the way they are now. The space I have been given for our degree show was a big part in this, as the only effective way to present my work would be in poster format, Not straight forward blank wall / pictures in frames.. i can now add extras and present my work in the way that suits me and my style.
The amount of times I changed my idea when it comes to the layout of my work, in itself was a time waster, I kept getting lost when it came to visualising the final outcome, and how it would come together... if I had the chance to go back I wouldn't get hung up on the end piece, but give myself more development on the images them self.. To perhaps give my work that little bit more continuity... But I will just have to make the best of what I have now and hope the pieces will all come together as I have planned.
These pieces of work could be valid when it comes to mainly editorial work, and easily assembled in any fashion opening or event.
