AWAKE TOO EARLY FOR SENCE! AND OUR HOLE!

So after our lovely day off yesterday where me along with two other lovely Vis commers dug ourselves a three man sized hole down at the beach!! Productive? I think not! but having complete strangers come over and ask if we'd hit water yet or saying things like hows Australia? it became strangely relaxing and satisfying !! we are heading in today to just crack on with our projects will keep you in formed!

GROUP POSTER..

Today apart from the slight miss understanding in the morning was all in all a good day! the sun came out to play and we got put into groups to design a poster to promote type radio...We were in groups of 4-5 its always interesting to work in groups as everyone will always have shared opinions on things etc. anyway we all got set dates for a tutorial in our groups with Catell Ronca, she was really helpful and as our poster was finished by the time our tutorial came around she helped us out on our main project were working on :)

It came round to the crit in the afternoon our work didn't get slated which is always good! but there was a lot of heated discussions among the whole of first year vis com!

INDESIGN

We carried on with our 2nd indesign tutorial today, found it realy quite easy to pick up in the end which was a bonus!!!

DESIGNER!

So today I got given my designer for type radio, which we picked out of an urm pencil tin? anyway I picked the Typographer R.K. Joshi ... not particularly  a fan of any of his work if I'm honest but maybe this is just due to the fact I don't understand it? who knows maybe I will when I research into him more.... also this may not be a bad thing!

We also went onto type radio.org today and transcribed an interview with our designer.... for the text on our magazine spreads. which I found extremely tedious as he speaks way tooo fast for his own good!

This afternoon we had a half day project which was pretty cool actually, we had to pick a word from our transcript and without using the macs create a form of typography... although I didn't finish mine i think from the feedback I got my idea worked pretty well even unfinished.
