Research a petition

RESEARCH A PETITION

i went on too http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/ and i looked at he petions that might relate to me a the one that caught my eye was "to promote awareness of the biggest killer of Children, Teenagers and Young Adults - LEUKAEMIA."-
http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/leukaemia/
i signed this petition because i no someone who has had leukemia and therefore i no how dreadful it can be for the family's and to have more support from the government would probably help allot

my campaign is to have more under 18 night clubs in the UK and for my research i found a website which purely finds just under 18 night clubs in the united kingdom !-
http://www.ukclubculture.com/?gclid=CLnu4vydzJ4CFVVu4wod-isgrQ

on the website it showed up to 90 under 18 night clubs within the united king don but we would like more !!!

with my campaign i am trying to convince to make a change in my campaign is the young people of today because i would need to get them on side and get enough of them to convince the government/council that we should go along with my campaign.

but on the other hand the people who might oppose my campaign could be any one and could range from parents,police too old people and clubs owners them selves but to be honest if they said they didn't wont to go ahead with my campaign i would come back with " well were do you propose we go on a Friday night? do you not think we get cold? if you don't wont another night club then would you stop complaining about the noise and the morning after litter?", it is all things to take into consideration.
when i tyred to research for"night clubs " and under 18 night clubs in the UK " nothing came up -facts and figures wise , it was all the web sites of the under 18's that were all ready up and running.and when i looked at http://petitions-number10.co.uk/ i could not seem to fund any petitions like it ,past and present and anywhere else i could not find anything either.


one of toms campaigns
.Tesco's 14 store in the Cambridge area is in Mill Road, Cambridge, one of Cambridge’s most cosmopolitan areas. The No Mill Road Tesco Campaign was set up to oppose these plans, and kept Mill Road Tesco-free for almost two years. Over 5,000 people signed the on-street petition and 1,000 objected to its planning applications. Tesco lost 3 planning applications, an alcohol license application and a public enquiry, leaving it with one of its smallest stores in the UK that it will have extreme difficulty in delivering to. The opening of the store brings the campaign into a second phase: ever-more active support for local traders, and making sure that any breach of planning condition or public safety results in Council action
.
The protesters tried everything that they could in there power to stop the tescos on mill road going ahead so they tried loads of things like:

Timeline

111.jpgMarch 2006 Tesco “acquire an interest in the site”.

June 2007

Wilco decide to move to Cherry Hinton Road.

July 2007

Tesco officially registered as having leased the site for 15 years.

Tesco put in first applications for an extension plus refrigeration and air conditioning plant; a shopfront and signage; and a cash machine. Applications are incomplete and council planners tell them to resubmit.

September 2007

Tesco resubmit their applications.

public meeting organised by local residents, to express opposition to Tesco’s plans. Over 400 people turn up.

No Mill Road Tesco Campaign formed.

petition to keep Tesco off Mill Road started

October 2007

Several hundred local people write to council planners,objecting to tesco's applications

3000 people have now signed the petition.

November 2007

1 November: First council committee at which the applications could have been decided, if local opposition had not slowed the process down.

Tesco tell the Campaign that they do not own the site, they have only leased it (for 15 years). 8 days later Tesco are registered as owners of the site, a fact they do not mention publicly until late February 2009.

Tesco’s PR man tells the campaign that “If people didn’t want us to be here, it would be silly for us to be here.”

600 people march down mill road, in protest against Tesco’s plans.

Over 4000 people have now signed the petition.

December 2007

Tesco’s planner tells the council that “The existing building [...] could not accommodate the use as an Express store” because it is too small and the wrong shape.

January 2008

Councillors due to decide on applications. council planers issuers recommending approval of Tesco’s applications, but the report is so badly flawed that, after complaints from the campaign and others, the report is withdrawn and the decision postponed.

28 January: Date on which Tesco said they originally planned to open.

March 2008

council planner isue a new report They still recommend approval of all applications. Tesco’s PR man says “We are delighted that the council officers have recommended, again, our plans for approval. It isn’t an issue of who shouts the loudest but who can make the argument on the important technical issues that the council needs to consider.”

councilors unanimously reject Tesco’s application for an extension plus refrigeration and air conditioning plant, because they do not meet planning requirements on highway safety and do not retain sufficient parking space and access. They approve Tesco’s applications for a sign and a cash machine.tescos PR man says “This is good news for Tesco. We can now put up the sign and the ATM which means we could open the shop tomorrow.” They don’t.

Tesco appeal the refusal of extension and plant.

April 2008

Introduction of a Cumulative Impact Zone on Mill Road. There will now be a presumption of refusal of any applications for a licence to sell alcohol on Mill Road. Tesco are now extremely unlikely to be given an alcohol licence if they ever get planning permission for the store.

May 2008

Tesco say that they will start work on the store in July. The campaign points out this would mean they were intending to start work before they got planning permission. (It never happens.)

Squatters (unconnected with the campaign) move into the site and open a social centre. Tesco say they will not be evicting the squatters until they are able to start work on the store. This later turns out to be untrue.

June 2008

Tesco make another applacation, for air conditioning and refrigeration plant.

Over 5000 people have now signed the petition.

July 2008

Once again, council planners recommend approval for Tesco’s application.

councilors reject Tesco’s application on grounds of highway safety and because the application does not address questions about noise pollution, servicing, storage and car parking. The next morning, although they still can’t start work on the store, Tesco send bailiffs in to evict the social centre. The Cambridge Evening News calls on Tesco to “admit defeat”.

Tesco appeals against refusal of the application for air conditioning and refrigeration plant.

September-October 2008

Home - Fears Tesco lorries will block streets

public inquiry into refusal of the first application. Tesco’s transport expert tells the inquiry that Tesco need to be allowed to use large delivery veachles at the site, and that any approval that limited them to using smaller vans would be of no use to them.

November 2008

the planning inspector dismisses tescos appeal against the first refusal, on the grounds that all proposed delivery options for the store would “pose unacceptable risks to highway safety”. Tesco’s spokeswoman says that “we are obviously extremely disappointed”. The Cambridge Evening News says that, “in the interests of local democracy”, the decision “should be the final nail in the coffin” of a Tesco Express on Mill Road.

February 2009

Proofs of evidence by Tesco and the council are due to be sent to the Planning Inspectorate, for the second appeal. Instead,tescos withdrawal their appeal without explanation

Despite having said the existing building would be too small for a Tesco Express, Tesco say they are still looking at ways to open on the site.

March 2009

21 March: Local people have kept Tesco off Mill Road for 500 days.

Our Campaign Videos!!

After we had made out campaign and done the polls,the t-shirt and the photo shoot we had to make a video of us asking people why they thought our campaign was a good idea ?
we had to come up with three questions and mine were;
-do you think having more under 18 night clubs in the UK would be a good idea?
-would you like to have more under18night clubs in the UK ?
-if yes why ?
-if no why?
and when we went out too shoot it we had to get certain shots in which were over the shoulder,close up and the nod

below is what it should look like after we have edited our video .
1. Edit your interview as above.
1 = REDSHOT -interviewee
2 = BLUESHOT -interviewer
3 = LIGHT BLUE-is the nodding shot
. we use the "Nodding Shot" to edit unwanted dialogue.
but this is what our video should look like after we have edited it .it includes A to B editing which clearly means shot1,shot2,shot1 again (a clean quick cut edit).because as you can see the strip goes blue ,red,blue re,blue ,red and the nod.

the weeks review homework -

at the beginning of the week we had to write an action plan of what we would like to achieve for the week before we started . my action plan said that i would like to have completed my slide show,done more blogs and put my photos up on FlickR and i hadn't completed any of them apart from putting my photos up on FlickR . And i felt bad because i should of done that by now .
so on Tuesday we had started to cut out our stencils and by the afternoon we had all finished and ready to start to screen print but Steve said that because mine was so delicate an had allot of small parts to it i would be better off using card under the t0shirt and stiking it down to the t-shirt with masking tape rather than using the actually screen printing equipment. and it took me about fifteen minutes to finish painting my t-shirt and so that it would dry faster we had to carefully take the masking tape straight away and then i stuck it on the wall.
now that we had finished our t-shirts we could do the photo shot of everyone in their t-shirts ,solo and group .so that we could See what everyone t-shirts looked like on and i think that everyone looked really good ,especially because our t-shirts had to be made to fit around our campaign ideas so our t-shirts might not all looked that good .they might just look quite plain as if they were just saying the message but none of them looked like that the all looked we doodey and like every one had put allot of hard work into them. when we were doing the photo shot we had Steve's camera but we all so had Leanne's,Amber's and Sunny's and they all took allot of pitchers of every one and all of the pitcher went on FaceBook and FlickR for people to review . 310
they were put up onto facebook straight away and some people left coment under the pitchures saying that they liked our t-shirts and come said that other campaighn ideas were good ideas .

Monday, 23 November 2009

i edited my stencil on photoshop so that when i come to make it , i would not be so hard to create , so i made it more simple by creating bridges, i also made it just one colors because we only have a min of four that we are allowed too use.
nothing really went well today because i did not manage to finish it so i will have to do that as-well as screen-printing planing,health and safety and budgeting.
on wedenesday we had more lessons so therefore we had more time to complete our blogger work and our t-shirts . during the lessons we started to screen print our stencills onto the t-shirts after cutting them out . and then because we had stuck the stencills onto the t-shirts onto the t-shirts with masking tape so that it would stay they ,we had to take it off idmeadetly so that it could dry faster.
on thusday we had one lesson in the morning to complete wrinten work and in the afternoon and then at 12.45 we headed down to the junction to talk about the promotion of the junction and how they decide which posters,flyers,brochers ect.. to use and we allso talked about which band and solo artist we would like to see play at the junction and if we new any new talent so that they could see if they could get in touch with them and we allso talk about how the junction got in touch with the artist that they have play there and they said that it was mainly "myspace".
on friday we a phoshot whith our t-shirts with a graffiti backround and we a group and a solo,silly ones and relaxed wich was fun.

the first video-

News night special on blood, sweat and t-shirts

Newsnight special with interviews with two of the people that took part in the television series blood, sweat and t-shirts.
interviewed two of the girls that took part in the programme and ask them on their views on clothes being sold so cheaply when they have been made in a foreign country .they all so asked the girls weather or not they had learnt any think over the course of the filming proses.
the other videos were called "primark off the racks" one and two and they tended to show how much primark gets the nation into a big frenzy about bargains.-
they talk about how cheap Primark is and how the low prices of clothes is a big thing now. The frenzy of all this began in Northern Ireland, When they opened the first ever Primark which is called Pennys in Northern Ireland. The big craze for Primark has rised and is one of the most close behind Marks and Spencers. and because of its low prices it means that people come out with bags full of things .so At the end of the day they draw in enough and them as a company eventually keep on earning enough to open more and more stores around the uk to primark nation wide !

  • after i had designed my t-shirt i started to make it on photo shop but decided that i didn't like it so i recreated it and made a t-shirt design of Marilyn monroe -.









my old image which i changed "you need to calm down"



this is my photoshopped pitcher of Marilyn monroe






















What influenced my idea?-
my first idea was influence by friends and nick because before we had started designing our t-shirts nick said "on you t-shirt could be a slogan that you and you friends always say " and then i thought of "you need yo calm down" because me and my friends always say that but when it came to putting it into photoshop ,i decided that i didn't like it so i changed it to a marlin Monroe picture
Is the design successful?-
i think that the design is successful in my mind because i am happy with it andf i am happy with it beacues it is a much more cleaner desingn than my first one .
What are the connotations of your image ?-
as my image is black ad wight it doesn't have any connotations.
Does my design address the target audience ?_
i thing that my t-shirt does address the target audience as i think that i would were it also i have seen similar tops with images of marilyn monroe on them in shops like topshop and H&M which are popular shops which appeal to that age group.

Banksy is a quasi-anonymous English graffiti artist. He is believed to be a native of Yate, South Gloucestershire, near Bristol and to have been born in 1974, but there is substantial public uncertainty about his identity and personal and biographical details. According to Tristan Manco, Banksy "was born in 1974 and raised in Bristol, England. The son of a photocopier technician, he trained as a butcher but became involved in graffiti during the great Bristol aerosol boom of the late 1980s." His artworks are often satirical pieces of art on topics such as politics, culture, and ethics. His street art, which combines graffiti writing with a distinctive stencilling technique, is similar to Blek le Rat, who began to work with stencils in 1981 in Paris and members of the anarcho-punk band Crass who maintained a graffiti stencil campaign on the London Tube System in the late 1970s and early 1980s. His art has appeared in cities around the world.Banksy's work was born out of the Bristol underground scene which involved collaborations between artists and musicians.




BATTLEFRONT
battlefront is a video campaigning website ,
the video which i chose to review is a campaigning video for aids

MY CAMPAIGN

aids is a serious problem. In Sub-Saharan Africa someone dies from it every 16 seconds. Getting condoms to Africa is one of the simplest ways of tackling this issue. For my campaign, I want every company and organisation that distributes products to Africa to take condoms along with them. This huge scale distribution could help reduce infection rates and save lives.

the CAMPAIGN's HIGHLIGHT'S

-Going to a public speaking workshop with Jack Morton Worldwide

- Speaking about my campaign at a Channel 4 Battlefront event

- Going to Cola Life event and meeting Simon Berry

- Getting so much positive feedback for my campaign from YOU

- Getting the support of Raef from The Apprentice

- Meeting and sharing ideas with fantastic campaigning group, Cola Life

- Planning a big awareness-raising stunt for the campaign

- Interviewed by the Evening Standard




my t-shirt design -
i have created a design for my t-shirt over the past couple of days ,
and nick was saying things that could help us with inspiration and one of the things he said was "it could be things you and you mates say to each other"
and then i thought that we allays say to each other "you need to calm down"
so i just simply wrote on my t-shirt "you need to calm down".

my t-shirt :D


this is my favourite t-shirt .this is my favourite t-shirt because i like how the simplicity of the t-shirt makes it so abstract and eye catching .

my t-shirt has a picture of mickey mouses body on it but no head .

i,e my head.

this makes people think ad look and that's what i like about it and the other thing i like about my t-shirt is that it wasn't to expensive because it was only £15 pounds at Topshop . so overall i was happy .
<<<<--- my t-shirt ,if you designing a t-shit you need to be sure of who you target audience are so that you no what to put on to your t-shirt , because others you might not get any sales .
for my t-shirt i think that it's target audience is the typical teen age girl because of were it was being sold-topshop= teenage girls
