Normal Mailer
We all know the expression "you've got to speculate to accumulate"
Regardless of whether you intend on stating your own creative studio, joining a small studio or working for one of the design behemoths we want you to understand the importance of sending out mailers to people that you want to work for, work with or just be friends with.
By the end of today we want to see a pice of work that you feel sums up your creative practice, this could be a beautiful bit of hand drawn typography, a collage that makes us question your sanity, a psychedelic drawing, a mind bending painting or something indescribable.
After today we want you to take your creation one step further and turn it into a mailer, make something that you'll want us to keep, make it unusual, make it brilliant, maybe the peice you'll make will end up being a screen printed cassette tape cover that you'll make a bit of music for us to listen to? Who knows?
We want you to post us the mailers to our studio by Monday 26th October so that'll mean you should have it in the post by the Friday before. Send it to the studio address"

Dr. Me's mainly produce trendy collages. I found the talk very insightful, it was interesting to hear their successes and failures and how they got to where they were today. In Dr. Me's session, I decided to work in a similar format to their work by collaging a range of images using old printed pages magazines, Vogue and LOVE magazine. The collage doesn't really say much about me as designer, but I want to create an eye-catching mailer .The brief was light hearted and fun and it was good to get away from the computer and create some collages. Below, are the three collage's I am sending off to Dr. Me's studio. I printed it off on a thick stock so they could be pinned up on wall.
