BRIEF 13: THE COLLECTED WRITINGS OF ROSY LEE//DEVELOPING IDEAS//OUGD603

the collected writings of Rosy Lee.
This is a brief that I'm hoping could work out really well as it incorporates my favourite aspects of design into one project.  The plan is to make a publication that includes my photography and selected passages/lyrics/poems to accompany these visuals.  Its looking at particular events and memories and displaying them with text, however the style of photography should be altered when using tea bags to get the desired effect, hence the name 'the collected writings of Rosy Lee,' which is cockney rhyming slang for 'cup of tea.'
 I would like to focus on the stock and type of binding that could suit the context of the publication, I think the final presentation will definitely add to the success of the brief and the overall outcome.
starting with existing photographs/memories/lyrics that I would like to include, the text will have to link to the image in some way, either approach would work with this - I think an easier way would be to look at photographs and link a passage to it like that rather than having specific lyrics/poetry and trying to connect a suitable image.
I have selected some images that I feel will make some interesting outcomes when edited and effected with the tea bags - also images that could depict certain stories or convey songs etc.  I also think something that could be quite interesting would be to use letterset on the outside of the teabag to get a more delicate style of type.
