Grad Book

At uni a few of us chipped in to vreate a Grad book to be distributed at Graduate Fahion Week, to be shown at our exhibition and for future employers. Here is my page in the book, it stands out quite successfully :)

Graduate Fashion Week

My work was taken to London Fashion Week to be shown on our university's stand :D I took a few pix while i was there, very proud moment!

Final outcome

After much thought and panic :s this is what my final exhibition piece looks like. I feel it fits in with my research well. The box at the front is covered in a lab coat and on top is a cusion i made to look like part of a padded cell with buttons pulling in the centre and a belt like a strap from a straight jacket.

Exhibition

We are havehad to think about how we want our work to look for the exhibition. So have chosen pictures which i think not only show what my work is about but work together as well. I wanted a nice balance between black and white images and the green toned ones. Also i wanted some blurred and some of the ones that look like film stills. I felt it would work best having a variety of sizes also. Here is a rough draft of what i would like my wall to look like.


I thought it would look good if it resembled my research pages with the graph paper background and way the photos are set out. I also want to incorporate some of my best related research pages into the wall so viewers can see the path of development.

Final Film

My final short film which includes clips from both Weston-super-mare and Wales. I tried to show aspects of both the water, wind and sand (eroded rock and shells) I wanted to show a gentle side to nature and also the wild side. I used music from both Chopin and Beethoven. The change of music matches well to the atmosphere of the film. Although short i believe it is both moving and powerful. I feel the lighting worked well and the old effect i was after looks genuine. Unfortunately i cant seem to upload the final film at the moment but will try again soon.

Beach photos

As well as doing the filming at Aberystwyth i took some photosalong the way. I found they worked best in antique colours and a slight darkening around the edges. Model: Marieanne Helliwell
