Final poster

This is the final poster I designed. It works cohesively with the billboard design due to the same typographic handling, colours and shapes. As well as linking to our sex toy range and reconstructing the misconception that sex penetrative.

I think it is very clear and eye catching and keeping it simple encourages more people to take notice.I ensured to place all the body text and logos on shapes so that they can read easily by those passing by. I think the hashtag is really powerful due to its shadow and bright colour.

This is our vision for the posters promoting the campaign around the area of the pop-up shops in the different cities:

O Mighty Keeper of Lost Ancient Knowledge, I, your humble servant, have learned much on flag design at your knee. Do you perchance have any wisdom on the creation of attractive yet accessible fonts/typefaces that you could share?

God, I wish.

Typography and calligraphy are such intriguing art forms, but I have only a limited amount of knowledge about them.

What I do know is this:

A slightly more space between letters (kerning) will make your font easier to read.

Having the bottom of the font be slightly thicker than the top will also make it slightly easier to read. Slightly wider lines or slightly wider spacing will both work. Something that makes the letters “sit” on the bottom line.

Serifs are for print or for large fonts in a digital format, such as titles or posters.

They don’t read as well in small sizes on screens.

A good font is only as good as its punctuation. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve found a beautiful font for a piece of art or typography, only to be forced to throw it away because commas or parentheses default back to Arial instead of matching. People like to say there are 14 punctuation marks in English; that’s debatable. After all the @ at symbol and the # hashtag symbol aren’t on that list.

But, to be getting started, you’ll want to include a period, comma, and question mark.

The most common letters you want for multi-lingual romantic alphabet typing are: All vowels with all accents (grave, acute, circumflex, wedge, umlaut and tilde), A with over-ring, N with tilde, C with cedilla, merged A and E, merged O and E, O that’s slashed through (sorry Denmark, I don’t know what it’s called). These additional characters won’t give you complete coverage of the entirety of Europe, but they’ll get you further than most.

I have to assume there’s a way to just program diacritics (accent marks, cedilla, etc are called diacritics) directly into fonts so you just have to make the base alphabet and then pop the extras on. But I have no idea how! Still, one must assume that’s how the Arial font can be used to write Vietnamese.

If you can figure that out, it’s probably better to do that than to custom make extra characters.

There’s a word for versions of characters that have extra levels or layers to them, but I don’t know it. For example, when you’re writing a lower case a by hand, most people do a circle with a tail; most fonts do a circle with a tail and a little roof. Most people writing a lower case g will have the tail be open, but some fonts make the g’s tail be a closed circle. The additional details that many digital fonts have can make it easier to identify the letter, but it can also exhaust the eye. Fonts that don’t do that are usually easier to read.

The most important factor for making a font easy to read, in my opinion, is to make sure that no two letters have the same character.

In a lot of fonts, lower case b d p q are all the same character, mirrored over different axes. This means the brain has to put forth more effort to decode which character is which. Usually, our brains can do this very easily, but factors ranging from visual impairment to dyslexia to exhaustion make it harder.

Things to look out for are:

Lower case b d p q

Upper case i and lower case L

Upper case E and 3

Upper case B, lower case g, and 8

Upper case Q and lower case a.

Lower case g, q and y.

IIRC, I have a couple of followers who are actual graphic designers and typographers. If they chime in and let me know who they are, I will be sure to add them to this post, because they’ll probably know more than I do.

Create passive income with the REX Token — GETTING STARTED

CREATE PASSIVE INCOME WITH REX — GETTING STARTED

In this REX TALKS interview held on October 4th, 2022, Thomas, the creator of the REX protocol, shares the reasons why he created the REX protocol, and ideas on how to get the most out of it.

Useful links: Website: https://rex.io REX links: https://linktr.ee/rextoken Worldwide Communities: https://linktr.ee/rexcommunity News: https://twitter.com/rex_token Telegram: https://t.me/newrextoken

Since this is a transcript of human speech, typographical errors are common! We have done our best to fix them, but please don’t hesitate to let us know in the comments below or in the telegram chat and we’ll correct them!

youtube

Watch the original stream here

Welcome everyone to today’s stream. We will be joining a talk by the creator of Rex in just a few moments. Thank you for your patience.

So there is this Rex shill group. I think it’s pinned in the Rex Promotions Group, but the name of it is Yeah, I think it’s Rex’s shill team or something like that. And they give quite precise instructions on what to do. You can just follow the group and you will see all the new tweets that the people do because basically they tweet, they comment, they like, and then they share that in the shill group.

And you get a Rex background, they will make a cool design for you. And you just start sharing the content and the other Rexicans will follow you as well. So this is getting quite a movement in the situation, so that you have several followers quite immediately. And all you have to do is just retweet and and The best thing would be you also go to other conversations about staking tokens, like other protocols or people talking about passive income and maybe yeah, shill it.

Just inform them that there’s something like REX on Binance Smart Chain and link the cool videos that we have so people get an impression of how professional this project is. Yes, and just connect to other people and inform them about the project. Create some awareness and use the hashtags.

That’s quite simple for everybody to do. Just be online for a minute to five per day and just share some of the content there that is very effective. And this basically made us trending. Of course it’s also the foundations of the project itself, the tokenomics, (the token economics) and certainly as well the brand that we created.

I think it’s quite easy for the people to understand that this is not a regular pump and dump talking, but it’s a long term game. It’s very important to use the protocol, what has been designed for, right? You create staking letters, maybe bulk stake, try to trade them on the DEX, get more tokens.

And especially we’ve seen that in other staking tokens. It’s very important that you collect those shares that have made the early Hexicans millionaires, basically. So that would be the game in Rex, That’s what I would assume, right? Yeah. So that’s what you have to do, I think, to use the protocol in the best way.

And also that’s what we’ve always said buy the dips. That’s basically what we want to do in this bear market. Maybe not even only REX, people who haven’t had bitcoins or Ethereum, BNB tokens, whatever. It’s a very good time for new people to enter this market. We might see some down down trend in, in the next month until we re enter the bull phase.

That might absolutely be the case. And that’s also why it’s so interesting to see Rex at the moment rising so hard. That’s a very positive sign of course, because people always buy green charts. And after we launched Rex and had this very peaking high in the very first days because Rex has been announced for months and people have been waiting to enter, and then we have seen the correction of course.

And we went down for some days and that is very hard for people to estimate when will the bottom be? And yeah, obviously we went under the value that Rex actually has. So now we are correcting back, maybe even correcting in the next weeks and month to the value that it actually has. Which I think is surely several 10, 10 million.

As a value, as a project itself. That’s what I would call it. And maybe we just go in waves with corrections all the time. Like when you look at the Bitcoin chart it goes up in three years waves. I think we will see that in Rex as well. And, but then of course going to something like a dollar maybe, or maybe even five the next bull market will of course be much bigger.

That’s what we’re all expecting, right? Then the last one. So this would lead to maybe even Rex going higher than a dollar. And this would of course be brilliant. So when you enter REX right now and you join the auctions and you maybe receive a big payday and you allocate Rex tokens and possibly just take them for a year.

There’s so much good content right there. Explanation videos, tokens, videos how to enter crypto. What is a wallet? We have all of those things. You just use that and get educated, educate yourself. So you, you will be quite familiar with what is staking what’s the benefits and so on, in quite a short time.

Yes, and then you will understand why the staking protocol is so good for long-term building wealth, and if you do it right for how you will learn how to create passive income. And the mechanism and REX for creating passive income is basically the- I was just thinking of a new game. I’m saying basically so often we should all have a shot of vodka or something.

When I say basically, that would be fun, right? I can’t stop saying that in a way. So we should do that next AMA. Just have a shot of vodka. No, of course we shouldn’t. We should be healthy. We should absolutely all be — healthy because I think Rex is a protocol with a very bright future because the foundations are so good and for the first time in Rex history, we have a very well perfectly smoothly working protocol that is unbreakable.

So this is a very comfortable situation right now. Everything that we can say to the whole crypto community out there, we can speak with 100% confidence now and this is such a good feeling, right? When you see Rex now in, in this bear market, we are going up a little bit at the moment, which is good.

It’s a correction from my perspective to the value of Rex. Absolutely has, but it hasn’t shown its value. It’s real value in the beginning, in the bear market, we now have the awareness and yeah. That, that we absolutely should have. What you do in Rex to create passive income is create those stakes and then of course you can create them in a revocable way.

That’s just a flag that you can set, irrevocable or revocable. When you do it revocable, you are able to withdraw already earned rewards from your active stakes and you can withdraw them. So that’s so beautiful. That’s a clear improvement from old staking protocols that we have seen. There is this one big example being the first certificate of deposits, staking token on Ethereum two years ago.

They started, it’s called Hex and Richard made it and. They did a lot of marketing in a very special way, and maybe they, people say that from time to time, maybe he used some of all the Ethereum that he kept from the auctions to maybe buy his own token and to boost it a little bit. But anyways, Hex made it to a value.

Let’s talk about market cap. That was beyond 50 billion, and that’s quite a number. No matter the marketing, I think it just shows that these long term staking protocols are quite powerful and interesting to the people. Certificates of deposit have always been a topic in traditional finance and building wealth, whatever they promise you.

It does only work in this way that you do long term commitments and people doing that get higher rewards. That’s why we have in staking “longer pays better”, right? So when you do a 10 year stake, you get three times the shares than just doing it for one year. So longer pays better. And this is the only way to do it.

If you are told that you could have a protocol with an API APR of 100000%, I’ve seen this recently, of course. It’s ridiculous. It doesn’t work at all because the token inflation always must be in the range between. Yeah, basically zero and 20% so that it’s sustainable. And Rex is something that is precisely 12.9, which is a good number.

That means that our token supply after the auction phase, where we mint a lot of new tokens for the auction participants, which is great as a fair launch. That’s what we would call it today. A fair launch mechanism for 222 days. After that we don’t mint any more tokens and the only tokens and res that are minted are by the inflation of 12.9% per year, which is not that much.

That means that our token supply will 20 x and 25 years in crypto is like forever, is three lifetimes or something like that of usual people. So that the, so this is really a good foundation that we have right there. And yeah, the mechanism, as said before in Rex would be that we create stakes yeah, short term, long term anyways, create stakes and maybe create some of them revocable.

So we are able to withdraw staking rewards from time to time, and then we can decide what we do. We could retake them. I had an AMA with Kelly last week. Actually it was this week. And there were some very interesting staking strategies in it. She suggested that. When you create a stake that is revocable for 10 years, you get a lot of shares.

youtube

Watch the full staking strategy interview with Dr. Kelly Snook here

In the best case, of course you use a TREX, so you get another 25% more shares and then you will be able to withdraw, staking rewards from your stake, like after two or three years, which is already more than your initial. Your initial stake REX so in this way you could withdraw all of those, taking rewards and stake them again for another 10 years, and then again withdraw them after two and a half years.

So in this way, we would, you would compound your Rex tokens. You still have the old stakes going, which is very interesting. You never lose this principle. So it will be available for you 10 years after you started it. So this is really a very long term thought. That’s absolutely right.

I think everybody knows that I was a very early Hexican. I participated in the hex auctions in the very first days and I always found it a good idea to do this kind of certificates of deposits. And go for long term building wealth. But there were some things and HEX that were discussable, like every second token was minted to the contract owner or to a certain original address. And every time there is some penalty from early ending stakes also goes, the tokens go to 50% of the tokens go to this Origin Address. And what they did is, every auction participation sends Ethereum. They kept all of it. There were no big paydays or something like that, giving back to the people, no BUSD referral or like ETH referrals giving back or this treasury that Rex has.

None of that existed in HEX and what I thought was together with a friend, basically we figured all of those things out. What to improve to make it a perfect community token where all the tokens belong to the community and there is not a founder’s address where he or she might or might not take all of those tokens and just dump them or sell them anytime.

Or maybe the contract owner dies and the people who come after the person just dumps them for whatever reason, the heirs I don’t know. Such things happen or they lose their keys or I don’t know. So it should be a fully decentralized version of hacks with lower fees. Of course, that’s why they built the pulse chain, I think.

We have that already on smart chain, cheap fees. We have those better auctions. I think because of the big pay days that we have on a daily basis it cannot break. There can be, like millions of Big Pay Days per day can be processed by the smart contracts, which is amazing. We have very good randomness.

Okay. Some people must join the auctions and have to then stake their tokens and get their referral rewards and to interact with the contract so that this random mechanism works very well. That’s a prerequisite. It’s a requirement so that randomness works very well. We’ve seen that in the past that when there is low participation, the randomness isn’t that good.

But when there is good participation, what we see right now rising and rising, or we’ve seen that in the very first days of re it’s very good randomness and it’s unbreakable. Without using these oracle mechanisms, which would be a third party risk, we don’t have that. No third party risks there.

So you can’t keep the purpose, maybe you want to stake it for a car or for somebody’s birthday or something. I was just speaking about the Hex and Rex comparison. And just to finish my thought when you go through this comparison I mean for the usual cryptos, staker or staking protocols user, Or even if you’re new to crypto, you can easily understand that the Rex protocol is more flexible for the users.

You can withdraw your staking reward rewards while the stake is active. You can send your stakes, you can split them, you can name them. You can do a lot of things with those stakes, and of course, that’s very interesting. Gives the people just more flexibility. So in terms of technology, in terms of low gas fees it’s much better for mass adoption right now because using Hex is very expensive.

Of course they have some. Built on top things so they can deliver some of the features as well. But in Rex, it’s all built in already and triple audited. We’ve seen another feature that Hex recently added. I think the name was Dodeca and it somehow was a I’m not quite sure actually, to be honest.

I think it was rug-pulled or a scam. It was a scam. I don’t know. It’s just maybe anybody you know or has all the information. I just saw that it failed. And some of the Rexicans said that, but I’m not quite sure about. I’m just saying that the whole, all of those things that Hex can do for you is built in Rex already and triple audited.

And by now we can say it’s absolutely safe and doing exactly what it should. And of course, we are very excited for the decentralized exchange for the stakes to open very soon, just in a few days or weeks. This will be very exciting for Defi. Basically you can imagine that being like an eBay for stakes.

You can offer your stakes for a certain amount of money and for a certain period of time, and anybody out there can just, in a decentralized way, buy them. You create an offer and everybody can just see them on the website and buy them. And if you hold an MREX, any fees as the buyer, only the buyer phase pays a fee, which is 2% of the stakes price.

We’ve tested that on a testnet. It works very well. We’ve seen that the website is already prepared. It will. Automatically list those things and offer you to list your stakes if you’re willing to the only requirement when you want to offer a stake. And you could offer any stake revocables, irrevocable stakes with TREX without your, all of your stakes that you have in your list.

You can just offer them for any price that you want to have. And the only requirement you have to meet when you want to offer a stake is that it has already passed 10% of its staking duration. So you can only offer it when, let’s say it was a 100 days long stake. It must have passed 10 days already, like 10% of the duration.

So you will be able to offer them. That’s the only thing. We made that because people couldn’t just create. A lot of stakes and just offer them right away, but they should have them for a time. And so that means if you withdraw interest already, you can’t offer them any longer. I think those are the two requirements.

They’re, of course, in the technical white paper, which is on Rex.io/paper, and of course linked on the, like everywhere And I think those flexibilities for the people and the low gas fees that we have and the sustainable economics that we have is surely a good reason to absolutely assume that Rex can be something in the market cap area of what Hex has reached, which would be several billion dollars.

That’s what I think. The certificates of deposits on a blockchain this flexibility is surely worth a lot.

Week Twelve - Final Feedback

For the last class of the year, I went in and got some feedback from Raul. It was good to get the opinion of someone who hadn’t seen the project before, and I got some very helpful advice. Below I have included some changes I made.

Notes of feedback

Summary of changes

8 Fold - Poster

On this poster I made the point size of the type smaller so it was less overpowering. I also condensed down the copywriting to two lines, to make the messaging tone more simple and direct. Because the typographic imagery on this poster is the tagline, which clearly summarises the issue, the copywriting didn’t need to have as much hierarchical value. I also made the row of information below the body text have more breathing room by condensing the hashtag into into the instagram account name section. This section is much cleaner in terms of the hierarchy now, which makes the important information more accessible. I then tried to refine this bottom information section further by taking out the very structured and even grid system. Because I hadn’t used this idea in the brochure, it wasn’t something that I wanted to include in the design system which meant that I needed to try a different strategy.

When I removed the lines, the layout of elements looked very unconsidered and random. This didn’t work for the desired design, so I tried some other options.

Here I tried to make the layout work better by sectioning off the information with a coloured box . It still didn’t look very clean, and I didn’t like the black type on orange as much.

Here I simplified the bottom information and added a single dividing line. This worked better than the rigid grid system that I was using earlier and also made the layout easier to read because there is a visual division between body type and secondary information. I then tried this information panel style on my other poster series to see if it worked on these.

Poster series tests

This is the infographic style poster series that I tested the new information panel style out on. I also made the typography negative space in a solid rectangle to fit with the other poster designs, which I liked more as it is bolder and stands out from the dice imagery. When each letter was separate, the individual elements got lost in the page because of the number of dice which is quite busy. I think that the bottom section looks much better like this as well.

Here I added chopsticks to the above refined poster series. This situates the viewer in an eating visual environment, and adds some more context to the dice visuals. In my feedback, Raul mentioned that the chopsticks are an important interactive device in my work and that they should be incorporated into more of my collateral.

I also added chopsticks to this poster series as well to make it link better with the 8 fold collateral and the overall design system. This series also looks better with the refined information panel, and as such I will use this new layout in my final collateral and campaign artwork.

Compostable Plates collateral refinement

Following my feedback I also refined these collateral designs as well. I didn’t want to use the chopsticks in these designs as I didn’t want the eating idea to be implied. I want to highlight the fact that the plates are compostable and won’t produce microplastics. I did add the logomark from the cover of the brochure and the instagram name to link these to the rest of the collateral and increase public awareness more.

Single colour type

Key words highlighted in orange - orange has more weight than blue, brighter and conveys a sense of urgency

Instagram posts

Another part of my feedback was to include the skull with the bite icon more. This icon is a very simple summary of the campaign messaging; that we are ingesting toxic plastics. I decided to add a skull icon with offset stroke to the existing post designs, and decrease the text size. I found that the posts with only the 2 elements of rectangular type looked a bit odd. I think that three elements creates a more visually appealing effect. On top of this, I increased the size of the logo mark in the corner to make it look more purposeful.

Original design

Reworked version

8 Fold - Brochure

Following my feedback I also reduced the point size of the body text from 12 to 11. I think this looks better as there is more breathing room and it allows the illustration and display type to stand out more.

12pt body copy

11pt body copy

As well as this minor adjustment, I also tried out adding the tagline (micro plastics, macro problems) to the cover page as it needed some more context. From the skull visual and title, it is a bit challenging to understand immediately what the campaign is about without reading the internal copywriting. I think I might experiment a bit more with this because I’m not super happy with how this looks. The tagline placement seems a bit random; I might try adding a line to create some separation and to link to the line used in the posters.

Usages du signe (№) dans les différentes langues

Le signe numero, en dépit de son utilisation répandue dans le monde entier, n’est pas un symbole alphabétique standard dans pratiquement toutes les langues européennes.

Anglais

En anglais , l'abréviation "No." "numéro" est souvent utilisé à la place du mot "numéro". En anglais américain , le caractère dièse ou dièse (#) est utilisé comme préfixe pour désigner des nombres et à la fin d’un nombre pour désigner des livres de poids dans certaines publications. [6] En utilisation en ligne, le hachage peut entraîner des complications en raison de son utilisation pour les hashtags et les ancres HTML , complication absente du signe numérique (le signe numérique peut donc être utilisé à des endroits où le hachage ne peut pas être utilisé).

Français

Le symbole numérique n'est pas utilisé couramment en France et n'apparaît pas sur un clavier AZERTY standard . Au lieu de cela, l' Imprimerie nationale française recommande l'utilisation du formulaire "n o " (un "n" suivi d'un minuscule "o" en exposant ). La forme plurielle "n os " peut également être utilisée. [7] En pratique, le "o" est souvent remplacé par le symbole de degré (°), qui ressemble visuellement à l’indice "o" et est facilement accessible sur un clavier AZERTY.

Espagnol

Le signe numérique n'est généralement pas utilisé en espagnol ibérique et il n'est pas présent dans les dispositions de clavier standard. Selon la Real Academia Española [8] et la Fundéu BBVA , [9] le mot número (numéro) est abrégé par la convention espagnole de typographic letras voladas ( "lettres volantes"). La ou les premières lettres du mot à abréger sont suivies d'un point; ensuite, la ou les lettres finales du mot sont écrites en lettres majuscules minuscules. Cela donne les abréviations n. o (singulier) et n. os (pluriel). L'abréviation "no" n'est pas utilisé, car il pourrait être confondu avec le mot espagnol no(non, pas). En outre, nro. et núm. sont également des abréviations acceptables pour número . Le signe numérique (№) sous forme de symbole à un caractère ou composé de la lettre N et du caractère «o» en exposant (parfois souligné ou remplacé par º ) est courant en Amérique latine, où la période interpolée n’est pas utilisée dans les abréviations.

Portugais

L’ indicateur ordinale masculine est régulièrement utilisé, associé à la lettre N en référence à des nombres ("n.º") [10] ou à un chiffre indiquant les nombres ordinaux (par exemple, "1.º", "2.º" , « 3.º », qui est l'équivalent de « 1 er », « 2 e », « 3 rd » en anglais), la version féminine est principalement utilisé avec des nombres cardinaux lorsque le séquençage éléments féminins (par exemple, en se référant à la première, deuxième et troisième athlètes féminines dans une compétition: "1.ª", "2.ª", "3.ª").

Italien

Le signe est généralement remplacé par les abréviations "n". ou "nº", ce dernier utilisant un indicateur ordinal plutôt qu'un exposant "O". [11] Un exposant similaire est également utilisé pour primo 1º et prima 1ª, secondo 2º et secunda 2ª, etc.

Russe

Bien que la lettre " N " ne soit pas dans l' alphabet cyrillique , le signe numéroté (№) est dactylographié dans l'édition russe et est disponible sur les claviers russes d'ordinateur et de machine à écrire .

1912 machine à écrire avec la mise en page russe. Un signe № peut être vu sur la touche '8'.

Machine à écrire russe, vers 1985. Un signe № est visible sur la touche "1".

Clavier PC avec mise en page russe. Un signe № peut être vu sur la touche '3'.

Le symbole № est parfois utilisé en Russie dans les prescriptions médicales comme abréviation du mot latin numero pour désigner le nombre de doses prescrites (par exemple, comprimés ou gélules) et sur les étiquettes de prix dans les pharmacies et les sites de pharmacies pour indiquer le nombre d' unités. les doses dans les emballages de médicaments, bien que l'abréviation standard pour l'utilisation dans les ordonnances soit « N. ».

Philippines

En raison de plus de trois siècles de colonisation espagnole , le mot número est utilisé dans presque toutes les langues des Philippines . 'Non.' est sa notation commune dans les langues locales ainsi qu'en anglais.

Indonésien et Malaisien "Nomor" en indonésien et "nombor" en malaisien ; donc "Non" est couramment utilisé comme abréviation avec orthographe standard et point final.

Nr.

Dans certaines langues, Nr. , nr. ou nr est utilisé à la place, reflétant l'abréviation du mot de la langue pour 'nombre'. Le chiffre allemand est représenté de cette façon et cette langue capitalise tous les noms et abréviations de noms. Lituanien utilise aussi bien, et il est généralement capitalisée dans bureaucratiques contextes, en particulier avec le sens « numéro de référence » (comme Sutarties Nr. , « Contrat n ») mais dans d'autres contextes , il suit la capitalisation habituelle de la phrase ( par exemple tel nr. , abréviation de telefono numeris , 'numéro de téléphone'). Il est le plus souvent en minuscule dans d’autres langues, telles queNéerlandais , danois , norvégien , polonais , roumain , estonien et suédois . Certaines langues, telles que le polonais , omettent le point dans les abréviations , si la dernière lettre du mot original est présente dans l'abréviation.

Em Nagy Interview

Could you tell me a little about yourself?

I’m in my final year of Visual Communication at Arts University Bournemouth, and after that I’m planning to become a teacher. I’m going to be teaching at an art summer school over summer. After that I’ll be going onto doing my postgraduate’s qualification for PCG teacher training.

How did you get started in Visual Communications?

So, I did art GCSE and through that I really found my feet, it became very clear art was my most enjoyable subject. After that I went on to doing Graphic A-level and a BTEC in Art Communication. While I was doing that, I wasn’t quite sure as to what I wanted to do next, I knew I wanted to do some kind of creative degree, but I didn’t know in what specific subject.

Instead of going to Uni right away, I did an Art Foundation course which helped me to figure everything out. On the course one of the tutors recommended looking at Visual Communication because it’s very open, it’s really great for the freedom of doing creative work without doing something specific.

Did you face any obstacles while doing art in school?

Well at College, when I was doing Graphic Design AS, I really enjoyed doing the subject but there was an issue, and they basically wouldn’t let us do it for the rest of our A-Level. So, me and some of the other students had to fight to actually let us to do the course. The way it worked out, there was three of us who were merged with a Fine Art A-Level course and just got given Graphic Design briefs instead. So, it was kind of giving us the opportunities still to do Graphic Design without having a proper teacher. I felt like a lot of it was still self-taught and self-directed, and to be honest, I think helped me become a bit more of an independent learner.

If you’d of had a proper teacher in Graphics, do you think it would have helped you?

Definitely. Things like using Adobe software, which in our current climate, is very important to know how to use. I feel like we had a small taste of how to use these software’s before the teacher left but looking back I would of really benefited from being taught that from an early stage. Because then when I went to my foundation course a lot of people already knew how to use those programs and I didn’t, it knocked my confidence a bit because I had to catch up.

How would you describe what you do?

Craft making, I’d say. Everything I do is with a very hands-on approach. Throughout first year of my degree, I worked very digital and very technical, which is what I thought I was interested in, but throughout lockdown I really missed access to the studio and tools that I don’t necessarily have at home. So, for my Final Project in Second year, I based it all around craftmanship and using your hands to make artwork rather than digital. Then through that I rediscovered how much I really enjoyed book binding and Calligraphy. I use the computer to finalise my ideas, but for the actual making, I’m very hands on.

Where do you find influence?

To be honest I feel like a lot of it is social media. I don’t have one artist that I look up to or one artist that I follow, Instead I follow a lot of craft, artist book, calligraphy, handwritten, handmade hashtags. I think when I’m just scrolling through social media, I see a lot of inspiration from there, makes me feel like ‘ooo, I want to try’ that. I mostly look for inspiration on Instagram. There are some bits on Facebook, but I feel like Facebook- in that sense, is a bit more amateur.

How would you say your style has changed over time?

My styles become more sophisticated. Which I think that comes with practice, especially in craft- it’s all about skill. I think while studying for my degree, the tutors have really taught me how to reflect critically, and actually, make me think “well how does my design influence other people?”, considering about how it would fit in the real world.

Has there been a favourite project that you’ve worked on?

Probably ISTD, which that was a typographic brief. Because we did that for Uni, although it was a typographic brief, we had the freedom to adapt it and change it to how we wanted it to work on it. I did a lot of screen printing, print making, book binding. So, lots of hands-on approaches which I really enjoyed.

Has teaching always been your dream?

Teaching has always been my dream. I’ve always been very bossy (laughs). I’ve always known what I like and how to get that done – that very much comes from my mother. When I was younger, I always wanted to be a dancer, and then I got told that “if you’re a professional dancer then your career ends by your mid 20s”. From that I thought “well I could be a dance teacher”, so when I was dancing, I always stayed late in the studio, or I helped teach the younger classes. Then as I started doing more art and less dance, I thought “well actually maybe art teaching was the way forward”. I’ve never actually considered anything else, I’ve just always known I wanted to teach (laughs).

What would you say is the biggest thing that motivates you to create? Do you have a motivation for it?

I find it quite productive when I’m making things, it feels like it’s a good use of my time. With a lot of things in life, I think very creatively about it- which I think is because of my education. Although, my mums a pharmacist, but she thinks quite creatively, I think I also get that creativity from my mum. Very often when I’m at home, I like to sit on the couch and watch tv and do nothing. But I always feel a lot better when I’m sat down at my desk and making something, or working out how things work- learning through making.

Could you tell me a little bit about your creative process? If you follow one, or have one?

Whenever I get a brief, I read it through about two or three times, to give myself time to digest it. I start with mind-mapping, noting down any ideas that come to me. I find that later in my process, when I get a little bit lost it does help me go back to my initial thoughts.

I do lots of research, both contemporary and contextual, so looking at how other people have approached similar subjects but also reading around the subject as well. Then I just make, I don’t have to know what my outcome is going to be but as long as I’m making, I’m in a good place to work that out. Making also gives you good time to think about a project, Its good therapy.

Would you say you enjoy sharing your work with others, or do you prefer to go a bit unnoticed?

I do like sharing my work, it’s almost like sharing that enthusiasm for it. Not to do it for that pat on the back, but it is a nice feeling when other people look at your work and say “hey that’s really cool”.

Would you say you are quite critical of your own work?

Yes, I’m very critical of my work, I think I’m quite hard on myself as well. So, when things don’t quite go to plan or I’m struggling to find my feet with a project, I do beat myself up about it quite a lot. I’m definitely very critical of my own work, probably more so of my own work than of other peoples.

Is there anything that helps you overcome that?

I think talking about it with other people, especially close friends, or family. When I talk to my boyfriend about it, he’s very reassuring that I will find my feet, and that I am doing well. It’s easy to lose sight of that and I think talking to other people is the best way to overcome that.

Going back to your creative process, how would you describe it in one word?

Rollercoaster. If I’m honest, it’s so backwards, up and down. You have good days and you have really rubbish days when you are questioning why you are doing anything. It’s a roller coaster- 100%. But I think all creative processes should be like that, it’s never a straight linear path, is it?

Could you tell me about a project or work that you feel especially proud of?

Well, I don’t know if, skill wise, it’s my best work. But going back to ISTD, it was the first project where I’ve actually made all of the components for my work. I made all the content for my book, I printed my book, I bound my book, and now I have a physical object that I can show people and say ‘hey, this is my book’.

And did you face any obstacles with ISTD?

My biggest obstacle was my narrative, that seems to be a reoccurring theme throughout all my work. I kind of get a bit caught up in making, I would just make books all day with no intention if it was up to me. But in hindsight, I did get a little bit carried away with the craft and didn’t think so much about my narrative- what I’m trying to visually communicate.

If you did move out of Weymouth, would you miss anything from the town?

Weymouth is very much a holiday destination, seaside, very much a British seaside town. I do think that when the sun is out and the weather is nice, it is one of the nicest places to be. But on the flip side, when the weather is grey and dull, there isn’t too much to do.

What would you say is one of the biggest issues in the town?

Kids get bored, adults get bored as well. When the weather is a little bit rubbish and there isn’t a whole lot to do, you go down to the pub for a pint, which ends up in day drinking, or drinking all night. There just really is not much to do, at all. The High Street is dead and there is nothing to drive you out of your house to go somewhere. There are a lot of coffee shops, but then how much coffee is appropriate to drink in one day?

Do you have anything exciting in the works now?

Well, my Final Major Project is the biggest one currently. But I’m also going to be teaching my own Saturday art school classes next year. Just today I got send out some templates for my lesson plans. It’s not due for a couple months but I’m already thinking how I can plan my lessons to inspire young creatives, to eventually end up doing what I’m doing now.

Do you have any words of wisdom for anyone starting out?

It doesn’t always work. It’s a lot of ups and downs and like I said before- it’s a rollercoaster. Some days are easier, some weeks or months are harder. It’s frustrating and but the best thing I think you can do is just perceiver. Keep at it. But remember to take breaks, it’s still part of your process. Don’t be too hard on yourself, and that it will all figure itself out.
