Evaluation for 'Sanguinary Creeps'
I am really pleased with my DC Publication, because I feel like it sums my design up completely. Here are a few bullit points of what I wanted my DC to say;
- My practice is about explorationThis was achieved through intentionally not having a contents page, I want the reader to flick through and pick out the pages they find interesting or stimulating.
- I'm interested in literature
I had excerpts and quotes from my favourite books and articles from my favourite writers.
- I am nostalgic about aestheticWhen designing, photographing and documenting my work I like to achieve a nostalgic/retro feel reminiscent of a 90's/80's text book, and so I chose to have my book spiral bound with an 80's type on the front.
- The design speaks for itselfI felt I unnecessary to add my own comments about the designs/designers I chose because they were in the book for a reason, it is obvious they influenced me.
One thing I regret about this brief was not doing a series of books, and also putting money aside so that I could get it properly printed, I printed is on Lulu but it wasn't as nice as I expected. Now I have time I think that I am going to create that series I wished I had.
