Formats?




When in a meeting with Steve Bulcock about the work I had done, the subject of formats came across. At first I had the notion that the project would be created on a4 watercolour paper, then torn, given a aged effect and then sellotaped together in an amateur fashion to give it that rustic appeal I was looking for, seeing as it was aimed to be 'produced' after the apocalypse.
It became quickly apparent that the formatting would be a key aspect to the finished product, having a 'sketchbook' and 'organised' approach didn't seem to be creative enough. Two format styles agreed on was 1: A fold-able flowchart (a1 size), similar to the kind you could possibly see in airports with hand drawn imagery, keeping the same humorous aspect or 2: A recorded diary of events and the lifestyle of cannibal with small sketches of the gross, gore ridden possibilities i've seen. Seeing as it was less than 2 weeks to change the format it was decided that the flowchart had stronger characteristics, plus if it were in diary form, It would of been fitting if it were recorded on a strict daily basis, and not harsly thrown in.
