SOMEWHERE SLOWER This Somewhere Slower research actually started as a range of other briefs. I looked into things that interst me such as Alfred Hitchcock, his films, his direction however I really struggled with where to take this and would just be creating a publication of his work for no reason. However after scrapping this idea I turned to another interst of mine which is bloggers I follow on instagram. One particular blogger I love following is Courtney Adamo, knowing her life and her adventure on family gap year, I knew this would make for an interesting research topic. A few years ago she decided to pack up everything and take her family on a gap year, something very unusual. This research was quick to turn into a visual outcome. Editorial design is something I’ve swayed away from in previous years but since my work experience, I’ve really enjoyed designing for layout. The layout was determinded by the style of the family. I really enjoyed this brief as it turned it to be a big project with a 60 page perfect bound book, something I haven’t done created before and am really impressed with the outcome. I managed to stick the time scale for this project and planned to print at the run up to the deadline as with perfect bound its glued and felt the earlier I did it the more time it had for the pages to fall out. This all worked out perfectly.
