This Brief should be read in conjunction with the “negotiated briefs” brief.
The other briefs I wrote just werent weighty enough and were almost mini briefs which I can complete in my own time alongside the bigger briefs. There is a common problem with alot of these briefs... I dont actually want to do most of them. There is only one which I actually want to do in this list, and that is the publication about space. This is because the publication would be a great showcase for my skills. I could use an illustrative approach and really delve into layout in much more depth that I ever have before. Obviously print is going to be a big factor for me this year, but I am concerned with just printing something that looks beautiful but is otherwise pointless. I think it will be important for me to be content and concept driven too give alot more weight to the design I aim to be doing.
There is a book fair which Amber has arranged for a few of us to go down to, I will be attending so I need to write a brief about this. This is great because this is a live brief and is a great change to showcase my print, illustration and art driection skills.
