After researching “ism” words I went on to making a brainstorming in my sketchbook about things that are small issues in the world around me or things I get annoyed about in the world most of them are small things not a huge problem above is the sketch book page with the ideas that I have come up with.
In my brainstorm I came up with a couple of ideas that I liked the most to make as my final outcome of a social advertising material I went on to cutting down some ideas so I just had my top ideas left to think about, however I still couldn’t pick so I went on to developing them in my sketch.
On the page above is the four ideas with some developing happening, I just put down some ideas and a idea drawing that I thought would look nice within in the advert I will be creating for one of them.
In this stage of ideas I found this method helpful as it allowed me to write and draw somethings to get a visual idea in my head letting me know which ones to develop more and what to bin. From thinking and trying to develop my ideas I found that two of my ideas weren’t that very strong and I wouldn’t be able to develop them anymore or even see a visual idea for them, such as ‘nhs ‘one I didn’t want to take ideas further as I didn’t want hurt many people views plus I couldn’t find a visual way to get information across that was interesting the 2nd idea I dropped was the ordering clothes online, I felt that this issues was just silly and I couldn’t imagine way ideas to design for it. I would of got stuck and confused trying to develop it anymore.
After binning I was left with my final two ideas that were left was ‘ how people are so obsessed with uploading everything on media and taking photos’ and the other idea was ‘ banning fireworks’, when making theses ideas I made a page and had some mini visual ideas for them and text that I thought would help me plan the idea out, I decided I wanted to take the idea of “banning fireworks ‘ as my final ideas as I felt that I had a better visual ideas of a design and what I wanted to say about plus I felt that the social media one was getting made by a lot of peers In my class so I would like to make something different from them.
The next stage I went on to make a name for my adverting material I felt that the name of Anti – firework-ism – suited my ideas banning the usage of fireworks and was very simple to understand by anyone.
After creating A name I went on to creating a draft storyboard that I could use later when designing my advert on after effects, making a draft storyboard helped me come with layouts ideas of text as my video is more of a typography motion graphic video as I wanted to experiment in a different area of movement and film from my previous years in after effect in college.
The draft storyboard did a take a couple of hours without a day to make up as I didn’t know what I wanted to include in each frame or how to show the movement so before actually drawing the pen I used a note book to write down area’s of my ism I wanted to show in words , this working method of mind did help really well as I knew after what area to cover and what research of mine I need to look at more .
idea speaks to tutors –
Monday the 12th of November I had a small group talk about my storyboard on the idea of my work, both tutor like the idea of fireworks but because my idea was to ban public usage on them and everyone should go to events to watch them, I should take the name from Anti- fireworkism as it makes it sound like I want to ban them all, the second point was maybe to add a different storyboard idea of making the firework issues seen through a funny was so ‘ what happens when fireworks go wrong’.
I found this group chat about my storyboard and idea helpin, helped me a lot has it helped me understand what route I was going to take with my work
Tuesday the 13th was the day of having a group presentation on ideas on the ism movement of my own, got good feedback of knowing that I was on the right track so I will be keep going on my way to create my final out come, however the was a point brought up Theo about the brief want a humorous issues so I have made my point below on why I want to something else.
As the brief asks for a funny issues that been seen a humorous advert I thought I would put a play on this and make my issues serious and use another way to get a message across so I will be looking online at videos of adverts to see ways you can show something to advertise it.
