OUGD505 - Studio Brief 01 - Leeds Public Spaces - The Brief

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.

Your 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. You can choose any event whether or not it was organized or impromptu but it must be celebratory.

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

Background / Considerations

Think visually, explore both literal and lateral responses. Explore working with text and image, both combined and separately. Consider the various techniques and processes that are available to you and their suitability for conveying or re-enforcing the ideas that you are trying to communicate.

Mandatory Requirements

Analogue print on A3 stock.

Content must be suitable for public viewing and be celebratory in nature.

Deliverables
Final print.

5 x A3 design boards that provide an overview of your research, process and design decisions.

Documentation of your development via posting to your Studio Practice blog.
