Design Brief
My idea for A2 coursework is based on a zoo. I will take photographs at Chester Zoo so that I can collect my own images of animals and also the signage there. My final outcome ideas consist of: a logo, enclosure signs, park map, promotion material etc.

Year 12 AS Level Reflection
What techniques did you enjoy using the most? Explain why.
During AS I enjoyed learning and using the low poly technique. In my coursework I created a low poly horse head which was used on my final magazine cover outcome. I also created a low poly stain glass window in my exam which was used on my final menu design.
What media did you enjoy using the most? Explain why.
I enjoyed learning new techniques on the computer such as low poly and drawing using the graphics tablet. Therefore, I would like to learn and use more digital skills over the next year. However, I also enjoyed doing the printing and multimedia testers at the beginning of the year when doing our first small project creating a logo using the initials of our name.
What do you think is your most successful piece of work?
I think my most successful piece of work is the low poly horse head which I created in my coursework. I experimented with this image and used different colours until I found a combination of colours I thought worked on my magazine cover.
Which artist/designer influenced and inspired you the most? Explain why.
Shepherd Fairey and Jona Dinges influenced me the most as they design low poly animals within their work and the focus of my coursework was horses so they were relevant to my project.
If you could choose your own theme/topic for your next project, what would you choose?
1) A zoo - creating enclosure signs, logo, cafe menu etc.
2) A nightclub - themed night - creating logo for nightclub, tickets, promotion material for event.
