<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Regular readers will know that earlier in the year, 2nd year graphic design student Sam Mallard's beer can designs (below) were selected for production by our friends, Eden River Brew Co. a continuing partnership that's brought several can designs to the craft beer market.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 22.528px;"><br />
</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 22.528px;">The idea here is to point out from the start that design and illustration are not impersonal, neutral activities. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 22.528px;">Having passion and something to say are central to the production of memorable, communicative work.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 22.528px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 22.528px;">Here's some of what they produced:</span></span><br />

It's a stunning location and a good place to use as a starting point for the first project (more of that later). It was a fun and memorable day as we happened to time our visit perfectly with Storm Ali arriving in the north-west of England!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As the heavens opened a trip to Keswick Museum seemed in order. It's full of strange and wonderful things. Here's Photography tutor Alice playing the lithophone - that's a kind of stone xylophone.</span></div>

Literally!<div style="color: #3b3b3b; font-family: kaleko, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 30px;">
The team behind a rapidly growing independent brewery have injected their personalities into the business by literally putting themselves on their products.<br />
<br />
Eden River Brew Co, in Penrith – formerly known as Eden Brewery – renamed and rebranded in June. The brewery has given its new look a personal twist by featuring pictures of its team members on the cans for its core range of modern, hoppy beers.<em> </em></div>
<div style="color: #3b3b3b; font-family: kaleko, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 30px;">
<strong><em>It is also inviting customers to put their face on a can next year by posting pictures of themselves drinking one of its brews on social media. </em></strong></div>
<div style="color: #3b3b3b; font-family: kaleko, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 30px;">
The cans feature the faces of director Jason Hill, head brewer Linda Stanton, communications and content marketer Giles Brown and designer Jemma Ainsworth, and are available to order at <a href="http://www.edenriverbrewco.uk/" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(224, 224, 224); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 2px; color: #3b3b3b; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">www.edenriverbrewco.uk</a> </div>
<div style="color: #3b3b3b; font-family: kaleko, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 30px;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JrBbtR1Yaxc/W3qbJicsFjI/AAAAAAAAKvg/2GlOGJpo4OA5bVqGJp4FF6R0vPvfc6dKwCLcBGAs/s1600/Jemma-for-press-cropped.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="font-family: -webkit-standard; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="221" data-original-width="475" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JrBbtR1Yaxc/W3qbJicsFjI/AAAAAAAAKvg/2GlOGJpo4OA5bVqGJp4FF6R0vPvfc6dKwCLcBGAs/s1600/Jemma-for-press-cropped.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="color: #3b3b3b; font-family: kaleko, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 30px;">
Jason said: “Our whole ethos at Eden is to graft hard to make truly exciting and original beers, but have a bit of fun at the same time. We put a lot of ourselves into making the brewery a success and creating beers we can be proud of. I think Jemma’s designs are a clever and fun way of reflecting that, giving the brand a bit of personality and creating a connection between us and our customers.<br />
<br />
“Obviously the people who buy and enjoy our beer are vital in supporting us, giving us feedback and encouraging us to move forwards and expand. That’s why we’re inviting people who love Eden to post a picture of themselves drinking a beer on our social media pages with the hashtag #sipspression. Early next year we’ll pick some of our favourite pictures and feature their faces on 2019’s cans.”<br />
<br />
Jemma, a second year graphic design student at University of Cumbria came up with the innovative designs as part of the annual Eden Student Design Project, in which it challenge students to develop the artwork for its beers.<br />
<br />
The brewery usually chooses one set of designs for use on a special range of limited edition beers. However, the quality of the work was so high this year it chose to use a number of designs, including Jemma’s which will feature on its core range of well-hopped, modern 300ml cans.<br />

<br />
<br />
Jemma said: “I knew that I needed to come up with bold designs to stand out on the shelf and be something original that no-one had ever seen before.<br />
“I went into shops and looked on the shelf and I looked online. But I also didn’t want to look too much into it, because I wanted to create something that was truly original.<br />
“I came up with the idea of the faces because I wanted something that would capture people’s attention as they were walking down the aisle; using people’s faces and eye contact draws people in a lot.<br />
“I also wanted to do something that people could interact with and I had the idea that people could get involved on social media. I thought that would be quite interesting.<br />
“They were really welcoming and friendly people to work with and I learned a lot. I never thought that I would work on a beer can design, but I’ve learned that I like working with packaging. The fact that it is formatted on something 3D, you have to imagine how someone picks it up and interacts with it. It’s more of an experience, which I thought was a really interesting way to look at graphic design.” </div>
<div style="color: #3b3b3b; font-family: kaleko, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 30px;">
Jim Millington, programme leader for graphic design at University of Cumbria, said: “I’m incredibly proud of Jemma, she’s done a fantastic job. She’s obviously enjoyed the experience. Certainly we've enjoyed working on the project with the students and also the folk at Eden River Brew Co. Here’s to working together again next year with a new batch of students and to the amazing and creative designs they undoubtedly will come up with!”<br />

Regular readers will know that our illustration and graphic design students have been working with the Eden River Brew Co. brewery, and one of the county’s most successful family
businesses, to create the artwork for a new range of beers.
<br />
<br />
Eden River Brew Co., in Penrith, is running its Eden Student Design Project
for a second time, in partnership with the Westmorland Family, which
owns Tebay Services, on the M6, Gloucester Services on the M5 and the
Rheged Centre. The new range of beers were launched on Friday 4th
May at the Rheged Centre.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
In January, the brewery’s managing director Jason Hill briefed design
students at the University’s Brampton Road campus on the project - packaging for a limited edition range of fruit beers. Buyers and
designers from Westmorland helped to shape the brief and give
insight into how to make products stand out in a crowded market.<br />
<br />
Students worked on a design brief for 440ml cans, with
designs from second year graphic design student Sam Mallard, 26, from
Carlisle, chosen for use with the final products. The range will be on
sale at Tebay Services, The Rheged Centre near Penrith and Gloucester
Services on the M5.<br />
Eden were so taken with another design concept by Jemma
Ainsworth (19) that they’re using her designs for another range of
beers.<br />
<br />
Brewery managing director Jason Hill said: “The brewery has been
doing extremely well and growing nicely over the last few years. This is
obviously great news for us, but it’s also really important that as we
grow we work with people in the area to make sure they feel some of the
benefit as well. <br />
“This could be all our great local suppliers or, as in this case,
youngsters looking to get some really valuable experience before
starting their careers.<br />
“It was really tough deciding which of the students’ designs to go
with, because there were so many imaginative and striking designs on
offer. But in the end we felt that Sam and Jemma had the right
combination of flair and fun to do justice to the beers we’ve created.”<br />
<br />
Grillust™Group Captain, Jim Millington, said: “The Eden Brewery project is fantastic for our students
because it puts them in front of a live client, responding to a brief
and delivering a finished design concept. The students were given free
rein to be as creative as they liked but they also had commercial
requirements to satisfy.”<br />
<br />
Commenting on his designs being used for the limited edition fruit
beers, student Sam Mallard said: “I’m excited and thrilled to have my
designs out there on the shelf for people to buy. To be given the chance
to work for a client has been fantastic and I am humbled that
my designs were selected when standards were so high.”<br />
<br />
Designers Lucien Xavier and Helena Davies, from Westmorland, briefed students and helped to choose the final designs.<br />
“We wanted the design to be creative and unique
in a market that is known for its individuality and flair. The students
did a great job with the brief, working hard to produce fantastic and
professional designs that stand out on the shelves.” Graphic Design and Illustrationhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03411327823225417908noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1013659448783625233.post-57660069569741896282018-05-25T15:23:00.000+01:002018-05-25T15:24:47.939+01:00A Glimpse Behind the Scenes as We Prepare the End of Year Exhibition (1-8 June)<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This year's exhibition has been titled 'A Cabinet of Curiosities' and has been styled accordingly.</span><br />

<div class="page" title="Page 1">

<div class="column">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Since the early days of the comic genre, female protagonists have been few and far between.
Approximately one in four female comic characters are female, and even those characters often
have passive or minor roles. The Hero(ine)s exhibition (which we recently hosted in our Vallum Gallery) aims to challenge, question and subvert our
perceptions of the comic hero. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The exhibition features original artworks where comic artists have been
challenged to reinvent their chosen male superhero in female form and contribute a narrative to
explain their choice of heroine and their perceptions of how women are represented in the comic
genre. A</span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">rtists include </span><a href="https://www.stevenappleby.com/" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Steven Appleby</a><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">, Walking Dead artist

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Nick Dodds, Senior Lecturer at The University of Cumbria, said, “The opportunity to host Hero(ine)s
is a fantastic coup for the university. The theme of the exhibition, exploring gender roles through the
eye of the comic artist, appears timely and pertinent given recent news stories. The 'alternate' take
on the typically male comic-hero by the artists featured in the exhibition is done with wit, humour and
a certain knowingness - asking the viewer to question cultural attitudes to gender representation,
myth and narrative.”

<br /></div>
Ever mindful of the Samson and Delilah debacle, the Grillust™ machine has always recognised the strategic importance of a decent 'short back and sides', key knowledge we're keen to pass onto students.<br />
<br />
That's why, each year we aim to take on at least one prospect who's got some experience of creating a decent bouffant... this year it's Marc Noble (21).<br />
<br />
Here he is demonstrating the barber's art on fellow 1st year, Tim Stewart (21). Tim's ambition is to become a top flight graphic designer.<br />
<br />
But with that haircut!?! No way!<br />
<br />
Marc to the rescue.<br />

After briefly visiting the barbers standard repertoire, along the lines of '<i>Going anywhere nice this year?</i>' and '<i>Would Sir like something for the weekend?</i>', Marc gets down to the serious business of cutting and styling. It reminds him of his training in the shearing sheds of outback Australia he says. Note the use of safety scissors. </div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On Wednesday we went back in time to that top visitor attraction <a href="http://www.beamish.org.uk/" target="_blank">Beamish</a> 'The Living Museum of the North', to experience the past for ourselves. Obviously all images taken in the past are sepia coloured (as demonstrated above) so we've used Photoshop trickery to 'modernise' them by digitally adding a rich palette of colour...</span><br />

You'll therefore understand that </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">around here </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">we take our visualising materials very seriously: be they pen, marker, paint, crayon or pencil. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>Some Year 1 visuals yesterday</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When <i>The Univerity of Cumbria Institute of the Arts Art Materials Shop</i> or 'The Art Shop' as we call it (it saves time) took delivery of a wide range of excellent but modestly priced <a href="http://www.spectrumnoir.com/" target="_blank">Spectrum Noir</a> markers it caused quite a stir. However that was nothing compared to the excitement generated when the lovely people at Spectrum Noir decided to run an art competition with the first prize being <b>£500 worth of their art materials</b>!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The competition was open to all UOCIA students and involved 'colouring in' using Spectrum Noir products. We can now proudly reveal that the victorious on the day was our very own Year 1 Graphic Design student Max Wilkins (21).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Max was brought up to respect boundaries and not cross the line (ideal traits for a top 'colourer-in'). Unfortunately, we don't have his winning entry to hand but believe it probably looked more like this...</span><br />

text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">As you probably know, Dame Rhiannon is a demanding taskmistress with a ruthless, critical eye that can spot the slightest typographic imperfection at more than twenty paces. </span><br style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;

text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Luckily for our novice students she took them through the fundamentals of good typography through a series of lectures, on-screen tutorial sessions and lots of experimental play (<a href="https://grillust.blogspot.co.uk/2018/02/first-years-eighth-project-typographic.html" target="_blank">see previous post</a>).</span><br style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;

text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">This is but the start of a very long journey, but even after such a short time the students can all spot loose tracking, unfortunate apostrophes, orphans, widows and line lengths that are too long or too short.</span><br style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #444444; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none;

The sessions were lead by Design and Illustration tutor Tony Peart (33) ably assisted by two plucky first year students, BT and Marc.<br /><br /><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-__OZUxtiu-w/WrKD7Cfp84I/AAAAAAAAKks/Vu8KR1o6BFAKpbaqjhptyhTUi6_HoLtxQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7917.JPG"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-__OZUxtiu-w/WrKD7Cfp84I/AAAAAAAAKks/Vu8KR1o6BFAKpbaqjhptyhTUi6_HoLtxQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7917.JPG" /></a><br /><br />In the first session we explored ways of experimenting with image making by making small line drawings of one another in small sketchbooks. these were radically transformed in scale by copying them onto coloured paper. After that the scissors and glue came out for some serious collage making!!!<br /><br /><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lCmEsbIEsSw/WrKD7GdUYsI/AAAAAAAAKko/TjlyTVc9UK8Jhxq2AdEObGOnJ1YoRVQtgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7923.JPG"><img border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lCmEsbIEsSw/WrKD7GdUYsI/AAAAAAAAKko/TjlyTVc9UK8Jhxq2AdEObGOnJ1YoRVQtgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7923.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YcZmCVFS7sk/WrKD7DFhAgI/AAAAAAAAKkw/D7QMtJUWi_EF2QhsA8ipo8-0l0ynB0JdQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7921.JPG"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YcZmCVFS7sk/WrKD7DFhAgI/AAAAAAAAKkw/D7QMtJUWi_EF2QhsA8ipo8-0l0ynB0JdQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7921.JPG" /></a><br /><br />Let's see the colourful and striking results...<br /><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yMxa3pO2u2s/WrKD8ZdLD1I/AAAAAAAAKlA/IcFJh8hjeCwDGTfb5wKBIQMH6HTfHdKMACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7955.JPG"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yMxa3pO2u2s/WrKD8ZdLD1I/AAAAAAAAKlA/IcFJh8hjeCwDGTfb5wKBIQMH6HTfHdKMACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7955.JPG" /></a><br /><i>I think he's wanted by police in seven counties...</i><br /><br /><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qA1wxNg5mvo/WrKGKwkC_KI/AAAAAAAAKl0/mMZT1mAY1D0Z_Zi-esr5RsREO_QKwcvlgCLcBGAs/s1600/Portraits%2B01.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qA1wxNg5mvo/WrKGKwkC_KI/AAAAAAAAKl0/mMZT1mAY1D0Z_Zi-esr5RsREO_QKwcvlgCLcBGAs/s1600/Portraits%2B01.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zp-iiGsFNnY/WrKGKwI0TLI/AAAAAAAAKl4/Y_ULSdZDE7krsJxkiANrT2cvPUXrAjZEwCLcBGAs/s1600/Portraits%2B02.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zp-iiGsFNnY/WrKGKwI0TLI/AAAAAAAAKl4/Y_ULSdZDE7krsJxkiANrT2cvPUXrAjZEwCLcBGAs/s1600/Portraits%2B02.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-V3Cs6cWgz24/WrKGK3MwFwI/AAAAAAAAKlw/5hUIlsV2TOkIfHVomXC7w7Rb3QFPwt-aACLcBGAs/s1600/Portraits%2B03.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-V3Cs6cWgz24/WrKGK3MwFwI/AAAAAAAAKlw/5hUIlsV2TOkIfHVomXC7w7Rb3QFPwt-aACLcBGAs/s1600/Portraits%2B03.jpg" /></a><br /><i>More suspects currently on the run from the authorities...</i><br /><br />After lunch we conducted a workshop devoted to idea generation and producing effective visuals (see below) and yes, that is Donald Trump.<br /><br /><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ae-SaIxfe6g/WrKD8bDB66I/AAAAAAAAKlE/AwpWNEGW8Xsl3tYXygb4svx04kBxTJ-uQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7966.JPG"><img border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ae-SaIxfe6g/WrKD8bDB66I/AAAAAAAAKlE/AwpWNEGW8Xsl3tYXygb4svx04kBxTJ-uQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7966.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XOwNhhdn-dA/WrKD8pZUgfI/AAAAAAAAKlI/qfzvWGwAqQwOheCpfowwXyL7dEE20IcgACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7967.JPG"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XOwNhhdn-dA/WrKD8pZUgfI/AAAAAAAAKlI/qfzvWGwAqQwOheCpfowwXyL7dEE20IcgACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7967.JPG" /></a><br />We hope everyone got something of value from the day and hope you all had a safe journey home.

She's been leading a module that encourages and develops an ability to experiment/play and push graphic imagery to the limit.<br /><br />Anyway, back to the quote above and it now becomes evident that Zoe favours the 'thrusting' approach to greatness by unilaterally creating the award of 'Kings and Queens of Idea Development'.<br /><br />Let's have a look at some recent recipients and how they handled the acclaim...<br /><br /><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VhQAwymLegw/Wp1mVFSrOjI/AAAAAAAAKiw/1D4R82Z2_NIpYrHKgWTvm9RL_iK7Wpd0gCLcBGAs/s1600/Unknown-1.jpeg"><img border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VhQAwymLegw/Wp1mVFSrOjI/AAAAAAAAKiw/1D4R82Z2_NIpYrHKgWTvm9RL_iK7Wpd0gCLcBGAs/s1600/Unknown-1.jpeg" /></a></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He built ‘<a href="https://www.redordead.com/" target="_blank">Red or Dead</a>’ into a globally-celebrated label which he sold in 1999. A philosophy of improving the things that matter in life runs through everything Hemingway Design does. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wayne provided a valuable insight into how 'Red or Dead' started and how to breathe new life into old concepts and how to cut through the ordinary and expected with powerful and visionary design. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><br /><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YR3u7cJKWQE/Wo17M0tTyzI/AAAAAAAAKgE/BZ92fZqYT2ID7dcKgII-0fGrVLD2_77ugCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7216.JPG"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YR3u7cJKWQE/Wo17M0tTyzI/AAAAAAAAKgE/BZ92fZqYT2ID7dcKgII-0fGrVLD2_77ugCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_7216.JPG" /></a><br /><br />He offered lots of practical advice to our students and went on to discuss plans for </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">a major development that Hemingway Design is leading right here in Carlisle.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Carlisle City Council and their partners have aspirations to deliver a new 10,000 home ‘garden village’ as part of their ambitious housing and development growth plan. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 1em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is an ambitious proposal that will also include new employment opportunities, community facilities and a new southern link road.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 1em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Cumbrian district council has commissioned a multi-disciplinary team led by masterplanners Gillespies, working closely with Hemingway Design, to develop an ambitious vision and concept for the St Cuthbert’s area. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 1em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Innovation, quality and local distinctiveness are at the heart of the design process, supported by creative engagement with the local community and potential new residents, as well as a comprehensive online social media campaign to generate a buzz around the area’s future.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;">Wayne Hemingway has said:</span><b style="box-sizing: border-box;"> </b><i style="box-sizing: border-box;">“This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for Carlisle to make its mark when it comes to creating much needed new homes and infrastructure. Recent history has shown that it will take real vision and an intelligent Herculean effort from a team of brilliant, diligent designers, place-makers, local and regional stakeholders who involve and represent the best interests of the community.”</i></span></div>
