BRIEF 07: PERSONAL MANIFESTO//DESIGN DEVELOPMENT//OUGD603

personal manifesto // design development : manifesto point - stay inspired
reality leaves a lot to the imagination - John Lennon
This was a design for the manifesto point: stay inspired, my initial idea was to collect a bank of images that inspired me and quotes that I thought highlighted staying inspired and positive.  Eventually I went with a quote by John Lennon, 'Reality leaves a lot the imagination' which I took to mean as reality being a source of inspiration, a lot of things you take from reality can be left to your own imagination.  For this I wanted to look mostly at text and how I could display that in an interesting way.  Originally I started looking at photographs that I could use and possibly if it could link to the previous manifesto point, documenting.


design development:
I took the quote and printed it out, then scanned it again to try and distort the text which I think works quite well considering the content of the quote.  At first I wanted to over lay that onto a photograph, but I felt that this could benefit from just being text based.
scanning in a background: This is a background I scanned in, which I think works better than having a visual, but adds something to the design as it looked too plain before with just the text.
