Prayer to God

Father, Son, Holy Ghost.

Father, Son, Holy Spirit.

Dear Lord Jesus Christ,
I pray to you to ask that you guide me through this Art project and ensure that it becomes a success. I hope you can make the Tutors and everyone else know that I did my absolute best.

From your Son Leo.

With the Father, Son, Holy Ghost.

My Folklore final piece

My final piece based on my Folklore about Domestic Violence and what Hospitals can do to help. This isn't a development of my original final piece. That has been developed but not on this blog. I used photos of the hospital for the issue. I made three versions to be iterative. This book cover was made with inspiration from a book design in a book I got from the library last year. I played around with the type of the word 'EXPOSURE' due to being experimental. I also used the logo of my first name only to be a bit different to all the other existing book covers.

Development into second final piece/Vanessa's Folklore


To develop the original book jacket based on Vanessa's folklore I decided to work from Vanessa's design instead of starting from scratch. I made other designs, but I will show these ones on the blog. I worked around with the type and layout. This makes the book cover a lot stronger than it already was.

September Folklore Presentation

The Folklore project was given to me in August 2014 and the first part needs to be presented to the whole university in September. My final piece is below.

Next is my peers design.


Reading the book

On the original and developed video I first read the whole story. It is a good read and I recommend it to anyone to read it. I had to choose a 15 second of the story to use in the video. I chosen the quote 'I wrote him a little letter back thanking for his prompt and courteous reply.'

I like it due to it's kindness and it can apply to anything, not just this story.


Tutor feedback/Development of existing design

To gain more knowledge before I develop the existing KINETIC TYPE idea I reached out to my tutor Karl, shown him the design and asked of his opinion. He advised me of some alterations needed. I agreed with him and done that. With all the info of different styles of K.T I then drawn a storyboard of how the video needs to be. I don't have it to show due to handing it in to the tutors. It was also required to be the final piece along with the video.

Similarity of Vanessa's book jacket


I didn't realize it but the layout for Vanessa's book jacket looks a bit like the cover art of the musician Kanye West. Somebody mentioned it to me.
