Being a Media/Stash Rep is frustrating....

So, as part of my role as Media/Stash Rep for choir committee at uni, I have been tasked with designing some fun, casual t-shirts for us to wear for socials and societies sports etc...

I'm honestly quite enjoying this process but it is simultaneously making me want to pull my hair out trying to keep my ideas affordable.

The current favourite concept voted on by committee - that has ultimately been scrapped as it is also the most expensive to produce for choir - is this one:

I was annoyingly attached to the final black design so I have been much less motivated since being told it wasn't possible to make...

Typography

For the first three weeks of GC&I this year we have been studying typography as a gentle introduction to the course (and when I say gentle I mean it's still a lot of work but it wasn't overly complicated).

We went through processes such as cutting Alpha (Aa) characters out of different materials - foil, cling film and cardboard - as well as drawing them. 

We also studied the shape of the mouth while saying the word "handgloves"....

... and illustrated 6 words from a provided list, using only lowercase futura font.

The final part of the three weeks led to producing a logotype in a similar manner to the 6 illustrated words for "Design in an Era of Disruption".
