Flags
Working with Mikey Scott this brief was simply to make a flag which will be featured in an exhibition at Islington Mill in Manchester on the 13th of December. We wanted to make a flag that would be fun and interest and would appeal to people. After mind mapping a load of ideas we decided to develop the idea of using the flag as a graph that has my interests on the X axis and Mikey's on the Y axis and then the final flag would be a visualisation of our favourite and worst things. After testing a few potential topics we decided to run with the theme of animals as this would have wide appeal and we felt as though there are some animals that need to be put in their place as baddies.
The workshop was about being hands on and trying new things so, as mine and Mikey's style of work is quite different we decided to try something that neither of us had done before, we scanned in 50+ images of animals from the library and printed some found imagery from the internet. After cutting them all out we began to rank them in accordance to if we thought they were bad or good.
As the idea developed we decided to introduce a Good Vs Evil vibe which escalated into a war between the two opposing sides of good and bad animals.
