A few more test pages, these are first mock ups & I have already made changes to many. These still need to be treated with the hand typed text from the typewriter.
Due to the nature of the subject I wanted to use a traditional way of creating & presenting the information. I managed to get hold of an old typewriter, which has been sat in my folks attic for many, many, many years. These are a few test pages while I try & figure out what I want to do with it.
Double page spread titled 'unknown'. This spread is based on how homosexual inmates were often mistreated, killed or simply misplaced through the years. To date there are still no complete list of all the victims of the Concentration Camps, this includes the homosexual inmates.
Layout idea for spread titled 'dot'. Which is about the use of a black dot on the inmates back to mark them as homosexuals before the pink triangle was introduced. My time-code system has yet to be added to any of these first drafts.
::// A bit about me;
I have recently finished my HND degree in Graphic Design where I graduated at distinction level and I am now seeking employment within this field.
During my University time I have been a key player within my year taking on such roles as project manager for design briefs and also volunteering to be the years student rep. I believe myself to be a good team member who has the drive to lead and motivate others whilst being completely capable of working alone to set goals and targets.
::// My experience;
As well as my university course I have also been working for a local design company for experience, where I have worked on a variety of new and existing clients over the last year, many of which have been put to print and are in circulation at the moment. Along side my work experience placement that I secured myself, I have also been handling the promotional work for several local bars to gain experience and collect artwork for my portfolio.
I have currently been studying in Birmingham, being stationed at BIAD Birmingham, Design Centre Sutton & FEED Studio Millennium Point, but will be relocating to Manchester and have secured residence already.
