In this class we discussed the brief and began to understand what the requirements are for the assignment. Our first task was to create three postcards showing something that we did over the holiday. The three designs were a line drawing, a negative and one cutting black paper. The postcards depicted what the activity was, where it was and an intangible, such as a feeling, a taste, a smell. The second task was creating a mind-map with our group on everything we knew about Wellington. Lastly, we filled out grids with two ideas each for the headings "Food & Drink, Sports & Recreation and Arts & Culture". The postcard task helped me to understand the different layers that are involved in the designs for this assignment, how we must be able to convey an intangible in some way - which is not always that easy! The mind-map was also super useful as I was working with people who know Wellington a whole lot better than I do and they were able to give me more ideas to work with. I am finding it a little difficult to come up with a range of ideas since I don't feel like I know locations around the city very well.
