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 .

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 !

campaign home work

campaigns

no1 .campaign
is to campaign for getting up later for collage
because then i would be able to concetrate more and would not be as tired

no2 .campaign
is to campaign to have more under eighteen night clubs
becuse then under eighteens would be able to go out more at the weekends in a controld place with more mates

no3 .campaighn
is to have free money for eveyone
i think this would make everyone smile because everyone is in the resetion now any if they were to give out free money then no body would be troubled .

we did a survay to se wich one of these campaigns is most ppular betwwen girls and boys between the ages of 16 and 19 ?

• no.2-to have more under eighteen night clubs -four girls agreed with this and two boys areed
• no.3-too have free money for every body - three girls and three boys agreed with this.
  

• 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

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".
