OUGD505 Studio Brief 01 - Leeds Public Spaces

Studio Brief 01 - Leeds Public Spaces:

The Brief:
The uses and [sometimes] abuses of public spaces do much to communicate the identity and character of cities. Across Leeds there is a huge list of events that take place within its public spaces that range from carnivals, concerts, markets, exhibitions, parades, sports events, protests, happenings, flash mobs, etc.

My task is to research the various events and happenings that have occurred in Leeds and helped shape the city; then choose one that will become the focus for an A3 traditional print that celebrates this event.

I can choose any event whether or not it was organised or impromptu but it must be celebratory.


My A3 print must use only traditional print methods. The prints will be exhibited in the level 4/5 exhibition in May.

Considerations:
- Think visually
- Literal and lateral responses
- Text and image 
- Techniques
- Processes
- Suitability 
- Communication

Requirements:
- Analogue print on A3 stock
- Content must be suitable for public viewing and celebratory in nature.

Deliverables:
- Final Print
- 5x A3 design boards that provide an overview of my research, process and design decisions.
- Documentation on blog.
