First assignment/project from Originality in Design with Shannon Jeffries last semester! I had a really strong (and emotional) start here - the goal was to pull as many cues from a dream together into a collage and visual structure to drive designing for abstract experiences with strong correlating elements. The gist of it is that images can communicate specific emotions or contexts, and that they need to be the anchors for the narrative and visuals.
The dream? It was the one my mom had under anxiety and heavy medication the night my sister passed - Vivian showed Mom the world before departing from it. Some of the images I collected to communicate certain motifs come from Vivian's own personal library of photography as well. Also, never tried doing a color script before - so that was new and interesting to wrap my head around. Reflecting on that time and working on this over a year later served to be really cathartic for me.
In other news, I’m dying here (as usual)! Worse off this term than the previous three. Sorry sorry about the lack of posts (as usual). I’ve got a lot of heavy projects due near immediately (as usual) so I’m getting right on that now! On top of the upcoming 6th term review - yikes!
