Today we sat down with the photography students helping us to discuss initial ideas and how we could use what we had already done for Graphics and how this could be changed to work for photography.
The feedback we received from this came from their tutor and the rest of the students on the course giving their first thoughts on what we had previously done and what they would be looking for their book. Here they gave us some old yearbooks to look at and we were able to set some outlines for deadlines so that the book could be ready for the final show on time.
Together they decided the name of the yearbook and exhibition would be 49 degrees relating to how many of them are on the course. This gives us the opportunity to experiment with degrees and temperature concepts.
They also noted that the tear out postcards may not be suitable for photography however they liked the idea of including them within the exhibition for professionals and visitors to pick up. Overall the design received positive feedback, this meant we could continue using the typefaces and overall concept throughout the design process but start tweaking it to make it work for Photography.
From this, we then had a better idea of what was being asked of us by the Photography course. We also arranged to keep meeting up as regularly as possible so that they could see the process of the book being made and helping us with any changes etc. We are now waiting for the images from the students to start properly designing as each page needs to be designed for the work, unlike the Graphics which as the same layout on each page.
