Visual Lanuage Workshops

What better way to start a new module than with a few workshops dealing with the cutting and sticking of paper; a technique that I surprisingly got almost addicted to back in my youthful days of taking A Levels...

First up it was important to note that 'The Randomiser' was back in full flow and more than ready for a series of words to be plucked from its savage jaws of destiny. With this the challenge was revealed and required the creation of a pure image to represent each given selection. The restrictions were as follows: 150mm x 150mm composition size and nothing other than the provided colour paper to be used. Heres what I came up with...

Left to right: Cold, Tall, Engaged, Something, Something else.

Next up it was time to do something that you should apparently avoid whilst on TV; working with animals. The idea was that we had to initially illustrate a verb and an adjective using only primary coloured paper and include one letter form or glyph - all within an A3 square format. Once that was mastered to some extent it was time for the bears, the worms and best of all the penguins. Don't ask. It was fun times though and also really good to see the ways in which people dealt with the restrictions whilst using some clever thinking and top crafting skills.

Noisy Spin.
