Today we had our summer brief presentation. We discussed the work among our blog group. We agreed that:
1. Most of them are digital
2. Most of them have white backgrounds
3. Most are themed
4. Mostly capitals
5. They all are 10x10
6. Range of ideas
7. Most of them are colourful
8. They all work as a set
9. All hand drawn for a start
10. All legible
I chose the colours while thinking of my favorite Walt Disney character Dumbo (The circus elephant)
Based on the research I did during the summer and on the answers of the project briefs questions my alphabet became a “Circus”.
A circus is commonly a travelling company of performers that may include acrobats, clowns, trained animals, trapeze acts, musicians, hoopers, tightrope walkers, jugglers, unicyclists and other stunt-oriented artists. The word also describes the performance that they give, which is usually a series of acts that are choreographed to music and introduced by a "ringmaster".A traditional circus performance is normally held in a ring.
My interpretation of the text:
My life like a circus is a journey in which I include my friends, my dislikes, my way of life, my fears, my loves, the courage I have, fragility of things and everything along the way. The word also describes the inside and outside worlds which usually interact. I feel as I was a ringmaster in my own circle of life.
