25th November

Today I created a sign to accompany my glowing installation so people knew what it was advertising. I then created an advert that could be shown on an advertising screen at a bus stop or train station. It would change and show something different at night. 

I then brainstormed ideas for an installation. I want to make a scale model prototype out of glow sticks. I know I could mock it up digitally but I love making things. 

I am really enjoying this part of the project where we are actually designing something. I am loving how we are being encouraged to think outside the box and so something really unusual. The last module was good, but we weren't able to be quite as creative as we can with this brief. Also, now I have got the essay out of the way I have the time to enjoy what I am doing rather than just trying to get everything finished on time.

Today I bought a piece of flexible neon light up wire and made a lightbulb to replace the glowstick star. As it was one long piece, it forced me to do a continuous line drawing style piece, which was very effective. I am very happy with the outcome of my final installation and think it looks better than the original one.

Today I started work on making Matt's changes. I decided instead of having one poster with lots of text, I would make a different poster for each phrase, with a picture for each. I showed my friend who was in yesterday's meeting my idea and he liked it a lot. I also started making the other changes to the video and other elements.

Today I started by watching the morning meeting. They announced a live brief but I don't think I will do it because it is very illustrative and that is not really my style.  I spent today finishing my Instagram advert. I was really happy with the outcome. And it didn't take as long as I thought it would either. I then started work on a second one that focuses more on why people should come to the art gallery.  I am not sure what I will do when I have finished that. But I have a meeting with Matt tomorrow so maybe he will be able to give me some ideas.
