LIFE magazine brief - further insight

ONE. 

I have been researching the magazine a bit more and have found out that it has been around since 1883. 

After years of publishing and also struggling it ended main publication in 2007. 

It has a partnership with Google, that hosts it's images for online access, and they are available through 'LIFE photo archive hosted by Google' on Google images.

SO
 

(I have been thinking that perhaps I could re-launch the magazine, promoting it and trying get people interested in it again. My main interest regarding design within this brief was the aspect of designing the front covers. I want to combine type and image in a interesting, effective way. So I still want to design a range of magazine covers, but alongside that I will produce a small but effective advertising campaign that will revive LIFE magazine for a third time.)


TWO

'Design and produce a range of film posters with proposed promotional material'

I want to design a range of film posters for either one film or a range of films. 

Could it be a cinema release? Or a relaunch at a dvd/supermarket? Or a the film/s released as books?

I need to think about what films, and for what reason they are being promoted.

'DESIGN THE INTERIOR/PROMOTIONAL ASPECTS FOR A CINEMA RELEASING (FILM)' - promotional material


what film?



3.

Design and promote an exhibition for some alternative, poetry related type and image art/prints. Consider the space, and how it can become an interactive environment.

I want to communicate the poetry in a creative, interactive way.

I will develop the space given myself, it won't be an actual exhibition area.

I will design some of the gift/merchandise available, including prints of the poetry (designed)


4. 

Re introduce the National Portrait Gallery. Through design, promote the gallery and try to encourage viewers to visit it.

I will use the medium of portraiture to try and entice the audience.

I want to think of ways of promoting it as publicly as possible.

5. (extra one...back up?)

Design an advertising campaign and design product (new) something organic? a food/drink?

I ALSO HAVE

spare briefs, 

- competition briefs & 'street talk' brief (design and show your feelings or issues or thoughts in print form that would be in a bus stop side.
