Everything he does seems so well editted & cut, the ideas are simply clever and make me smile.

Julien Vallée's motion & design has continued to excite me all year! I posted his work for Print Magazine on my blog not so long ago, and again I saw this video and needed to post another one of his clever ideas.

Accumulonimbus
Natural and man-made objects on a spin cycle accumulate, disintegrate, and multiply. Created by stop motion animating clay on glass, the film is a meditation on motion and the life cycle of matter.

Take a look at the making of the animation here. It's pretty incredible!

CYMK
As part of understanding CMYK print, GDC1 created this print to understand how different percentages of each of the colours affect one another when layered up. We each designed the typography for each percentage then the plates were created without knowing which colours would layer up. It was exciting to see an outcome we couldn't predict.
Thanks to Mike at his Lithography Studio in Shoreditch.
Tatty Devine
I recently had the opertunity to intern in the Press Office at international, hand crafted jewellery brand Tatty Devine. Working with the likes of Vogue in France, Turkey and Spain and also, Grazia, Elle & RWD.
In the peroid I worked with Tatty, we exhibited at London Clothes Show, held a private exhibition in collaboration with Supermarket Sarah & also held craft based events at Craftacular with BUST! magazine, Vintage at Goodwood Festival and The Big Chill Festival.
Tatty Devine is Harriet Vine and Rosie Wolfenden. The two designers set up the company ten years ago, and still run it completely independently. A witty, offbeat brand, Tatty Devine has become a cult classic of British fashion.
Harriet and Rosie still design every piece, and 99% of the jewellery is made by hand in Tatty Devine's own workshops (one in London and one in Kent).
Harriet and Rosie met on Chelsea School Of Art's Fine Art degree course. They found some bags of leather samples on the street one night, and after graduating used the leather to create wrist cuffs which soon sold out every week at Portobello and Spitalfields markets. Harvey Nichols and Browns began to stock Tatty Devine, andVogue shot their first collection on Erin O'Connor and John Galliano for the Millennium issue.
Acrylic silhouette shapes are Tatty Devine's signature style, but you'll also find pieces created in textiles, wood, leather, veneer and enamel. They are continually developing new techniques to produce unique and exciting designs.
The company has a history of collaborating with others, including artists, bands and the fashion world. They were one of the first designers to produce a high street collection back in 2003, for New Look, at the same time as working with avant-garde girl group Chicks on Speed. Ashish, Peter Jensen and Basso & Brooke have all turned to Tatty Devine for statement catwalk pieces, and pieces have been created especially for Rob Ryan, Tate, Selfridges and Gilbert & George.
Rankin shot a dress covered in Tatty Devine brooches to celebrate 25 years of London Fashion Week, and Dazed & Confused magazine list Tatty Devine as one of the top 50 coolest brands in the world.

The Fight For The Client
We were given the task of creating a sixty second film, however it wasn't so simple as that. There were rules:
Each film had to be based on a randomly selected genre and graphic design related word. The word had to appear in the title and the film had to express its title.
The genre and word my group received were:
Romantic Comedy / Client
Each film also had to include three reoccuring props:

Each film also had to include three reoccuring props:
- An Egg
- A Cat
- A Ladder
And three reoccuring lines of dialogue:
"How much for the little one?"
"See you next Wednesday:
"The most important thing in life is......"
The word 'Chelsea' also had to appear somewhere in each film.
Each and every aspect of the film's production was down to us as a group - Emma Noble, Steven Williams, Alison Coggan & myself. Together we had to write, produce, deisgn, build, storyboard, act, shoot, direct, digitise, edit, composite special effects and everything else!
