Brief Selection and Action Plan

Briefs :

The Waterberg Trust Christmas fair: Produce a collection of cards or illustrative products to sell. 

Deadline : 05/12/18

Penguin Random House: Produce a cover design for Animal Farm by George Orwell, A Brief History of time by Stephen Hawking & Noughts and Crosses by Malorie Blackman. 

Deadline : 06/03/18

YCN, Dogs Trust : Create a campaign that makes 'rescue dogs' the most desirable breed in Britain. 

Deadline: 22/03/18

Editorials: Produce a series of editorials on a range of subjects and dimensions. 

6 different dimensions: cover, full page, spot, square, portrait and landscape. 

Deadline: Submission 

Rationale: 

In order to complete all the briefs to the best of my ability I think its key to prioritise them according to their deadlines, but also set a series of goals intermittently to maintain a consistent production of work. At the moment I am struggling with Cop as well as doing work for Hanbury Hall, so extended practice may have to take a back seat until after Christmas; however I would like to keep it ticking over by doing some contextual research to support my briefs and noting down initial ideas or thumbnails. 

I aim to complete these initial briefs by the end of February. I have given myself this objective as I predict that by that time I may have some new briefs or ideas that I would like to take on to further develop my practice. This is only a flexible date, however, and personally set briefs such as the editorial may continue beyond this point.
