Teamworking.......

The exhibition is a quite a big undertaking. So much has to be organised and so many tasks allocated. To ensure the graphics team worked closely together, this blog was created and the 'Assigning Roles' post (posted 1st March) lists who is reponsible for what and is updated with progress in red. The graphics team also kept in close contact with the exhibition and website team so that any potential delays could be minimised. To give the other teams access to fonts and the palette, a copy of our powerpoint presentation was sent to the teams leaders electronically.

Directions sign

I had to make a sign with an arrow that will point out the route to the exibition once in the university.
This is the final poster, with the forward pointing arrow. I will also make versions with arrows pointing right and left.

T-shirt designs

One of my jobs for the graphics team was to design some t-shirts for the 'exibitionees' to wear. I decided to go for something a bit unusual, still portraying the London underground, but not just the bog standard logo. I found a nice image of an underground station and turn it black & white. Then using inspiration from the V&A museum, I covered all the commuters faces with coloured circles. The logo on the train remained in colour as well. I think this made quite a striking image.

The decision was made a little later to buy stripy t-shirts for the exibit instead, so this design was not needed.
