First Years, First Project

Working in teams of two, we asked the students to produce a digital magazine that attempted to capture something of the essence of a location of their choice.

The idea here is to point out from the start (N.B. we would never use the phrase 'get go' because we hate it...) that design and illustration are not impersonal, neutral activities. 

Having passion and something to say are central to the production of memorable work.

Here's some of what they produced:

James and Sarah (both 21) explored one of Carlile's finest eateries, The Shabby Scholar...

Isabel and Harriet (also 21) sat on a bench and things happened...

Zach and Bronte (also, also 21) observed a bus stop (WARNING: contains rude words and peanuts!)

Will and Rebecca (also, also, also 21) went to Cafe Nero...

Ed and Abigail (also, also, also, also 21) spent time at the railway station...

James and Lucy (no idea how old they are) disagreed on how to depict 'Eaten by Monsters'...
