OUGD601 - Practical - Ideas Peer-led Crit (12/11)

* Initial idea: to produce two posters, one made using traditional, handmade processes and one made using contemporary, digital processes.
* Questions: what content do I use for the poster design itself? - same content / design needs to be reiterated using both processes - process is the more important aspect.

- Look at when digital processes were introduced into design - 1960's Swiss design, Bauhaus.
- Produce a large body of experiments using different processes - potentially pair these experiments with two main posters as a product of the experiments themselves.
- Represent the processes in the content provided on the posters.
- Create a celebration of method.
- Letraset / letterpress.
- Message? - think about what message you want to communicate through the designs - could produce a campaign to get people to experiment with process more.
- PURPOSE.
- Use quotes from essay as a centre point.
- Focus on type / typesetting, e.g. traditional type like letterpress, etc, as well as digital type - CONTRAST - use quotes on handmade design designed digitally and vice versa.
- Mimic handmade type through digital techniques and mimic digital type through handmade techniques.
- Needs to be SIMPLE - more about how it is created.
* Use quotes taken from essay - create obvious links between essay and practical.
