ME AS A DESIGNER
A graphic designer from the North. My passion lies with image based design, where I try to be playful and fun with each brief I am given. The briefs I have chosen this year will use the skills I have obtained throughout the last two years to produce a body of work which describes me as a designer. The main skills I want to demonstrate are : + Print + Image making

COP DISSERTATION
To what extent are are the disciplines of Image based design and illustration similar?
“Where as graphic design is more anonymous, all illustration is sold for its particular and individual style” -Ed Fella ANDY FOSTER

COP DISSERTATION
+Why the brain reacts to image “The brain, through its vast array of specialised cells, most quickly and easily responds to four major attributes of all viewed objects: colour, form, depth and movement.”
+Graphic design “a medium ... a means of communication’ consisting in ‘the use of words and images on more or less everything, more or less everywhere’ ( Kalman 1991:51) +Illustration “Day after day we are bombarded with images and information that vies for our attention. In an increasingly visual world, it is illustration that holds the key to giving a small measure of individualism to the marketplace”

COP DISSERTATION
+Why are they moving apart ? “Illustration is a dirty word, or at least until recently. Neither truly accepted by the art establishment, nor the design industry, illustration has found itself existing in a no-man’s land between the two”
