Magazine Project
Our first project as specialists in Graphic Design on my foundation course is to create a magazine cover and contents page. This is what I have settled on. The final piece will be a variation on these pieces and I will post it when I have done. This was a two week project. I have had about 5 days at college to work on it in reality though.

5 books for £1 or 30p Each.
I found these books yesterday in a Second-hand shop near where I live so I bought them. I was extremely happy when I found these (probably more than I should have been). My favourite is the Postercraft book. I enjoy looking at the effort that went into the hand-making aspect of every stage of printmaking compared to the reliance on certain Adobe packages used currently. Anyway, they are good books and I thought they deserved mentioning.
NB. You will notice there are four books shown. The fifth book I bought was "The strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" (Just because I want to read it).

James Cameron
I have been to see Avatar and it is great. TV was made to represent reality (even if the stories are not realistic) and have done so for a long time. 2D has its obvious limitations on portraying real life (Its 1 whole dimension away). Logic only states that in the bid to create the most realistic representation of life is to use 3D. With this in mind, I decided to make this little piece to show the leap from 2D to 3D and how different the experience looks.
