As a music fan, Secret
7 was my favourite brief throughout this module. I enjoy how open the brief is,
which leaves a lot more room for creativity. Overall I was very pleased with my
final outcome. The inspiration came from the lyric “in the sunshine by the
windowsill in the kitchen.” I wanted to recreate the view from a window showing
the sunshine streaming in. one of The strengths during this project was the
planning, as it was a hand drawn piece I gave myself a lot of time to insure I
could not only get in done on time for the deadline, but to a high standard.
Another strength of the project was how it wasn’t done digitally. One of the
aims I set myself this year was to do more hand rendered work and to try and
step away from the computer. As if by habit, as soon as I get a brief I always
think of the digital possibilities. By not working digitally I was able to try
a completely new thing and style, which I really enjoyed. I found by working in
pen, without the undo option I put a lot more thought into everything I did.
However one of the weaknesses I have found from working with hand drawn images
is scale. I drew it out 7 inches x 7 inches, but I think so that the image had
more clarity I should have made it much bigger, so that I would be able to
scale it up and down.
