FMP Proposal


The Final Mayor project is an eight weeks long project on a topic which I have to decide.
To begin the project I need to write a proposal explaining the concept and aim of the project i am planing on doing. It can be anything such as advertising or graphic campaigns.
Starting with a huge brain storming that shows themes I am interested in and ideas. I Split the mind map in four different topics, diabetes, social problems during different centuries, the danger of nightlife and globalisation.
To think of more details and write down more ideas about each topic I also did mind maps on each single theme. While doing those I payed attention to think of questions that interests me and on which I could focus doing the project.




My peer members helped me to sort out ideas which were not that important, focus and improve those which I could develop in my further process.
Starting with initial ideas I formed proper questions out of them for which I could collect research. Not only on the two themes “how does graphic design informs society and how could this be improved?” and “how can graphic design inform society about the dangers of nightlife?” but also on what I could design to show inform people.

I looked for secondary research like books, magazines, videos, websites and articles that bases on my topics.
The reason for me choosing two completely different theme is that I can find out if I am actually able to find any research and if I get ideas about designs during the process. In case that i would not be able to do so I would not have to think about another completely different idea and start all over again but could continue with the theme I like the most.
Both of my topics interests me a lot. Because I did research on completely different themes I had some variation which I enjoyed.

After I got an overall idea and gathered some knowledge about my themes I went to several exhibitions and galleries such as the Wellcome Collection and photographers gallery to look for inspirations.
I liked the idea of designing something interactive which would attract young adults. Furthermore I enjoyed looking at the usage of space, typography and modern magazines.
As I spent some time with the theme I discovered details I did not now about before and enjoyed learning more facts.
Because my target audience are 16 until 25 years old people i also thought about creating an online website. That gave me the idea of actually designing a published magazine and an online version of it.
To be able to evaluate my exhibition trips I took photographs and sketched. Furthermore I organised an interview with a diabetics and looked at some online.
That showed me how important it is to look at different opinions to draw my own. Additionally, videos express a lot more feelings than written articles which is also important to know so I would be able to respond to them.

British Values - Individual Liberty

The country Britain not only stands against terrorism and discrimination but also fights against those issues to protect society. The Prevent Strategy was set up in 2006 by the government to stop people supporting terrorism or becoming terrorists. The strategy is subdivided in three major aspects which are challenging the ideology that stands for terrorism, protecting innocent people and supporting those sectors which have a risk of radicalization. To prevent that young adults or even children turn into terrorists the government developed the Equality Act in 2010 which tackles inequality and prevents discrimination against people with 'protected characteristics' inside public schools. Examples for 'protected characteristics' are the age, disability, sex or sexual orientation, the religion, etcetera. In fact of that the British Values are defined as "democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance for those with differe...

Process - Art Fund - Live Brief

This life project was different from the project we had worked on before. That is because the project brief is written by an existing company called Art Fund which wants us to create a campaign in their  name  that can drive sales of the student art pass amongst university students. Because of that we had to follow guidelines such as using their colour palette, font style and layout. The brief also gave us key insights in students lives as well as the key message which had to be express through our design to make the concept clear. I started with writing down the main aspects which the student art pass offers and what the company wants me to convey. Then I listed facts which needed to be considered for my campaign. My first idea was to design the student pass out of error windows which appear on the computer when an error happens. This idea was caused by the thought that students are mostly using computers and phones and are all of their free times onli...

Photo Sequence

The task was about teaching us how to create a story by using photos. The importance of that is to think about different aspects as we take them such as the composition, framing, light, location, shape/ form, texture/ line, colour, (a)symmetry, narrative, depth of field and the reveal. All in one it is necessary to know how to convey the story to the viewer so they would get affected by it. My story is about a girl which is bored and does not know what to do at first. After a while she has the idea to turn on some music so she could dance and jump on her bed. Suddenly she loses the control of her body and falls down to the floor. The story ends with her laying on the ground and not moving. The setting is a bedroom. In the picture is seen a bed, door, bedside table with a lamp on it, a music speaker and a picture in a frame hanging on the wall. I choose the room because it should look like an average room for a teenager. Furthermore should the room be clean so it w...
