The Vancouver International Film Festival (VIFF) currently has an established identity. HHow can the identity and branding of a film festival be re-conceptualized in terms of deviating from traditional aesthetics and signifiers that connote a straight forward presence of the film industry?
Although this project did not have any real practical application or implementation it does not mean the approach was not validated. On the contrary it proved a solid excersize in branding a film...
While utilizing Processing (a programming program developed by MIT) and exporting Java applets, a series of programs were interconnected leading up to the final piece. They explor the interactive capabilities that can be utilized through Processing while simultaneously learning the coding language itself and how to make running, workable programs that could be intreging to the viewer.
The first project entailed drawing an object (i.e. the reboot logo from the old tv show) and then...

In conjunction with other post secondary schools a couple of selected students (unfortunately not mine) samples were carried forward of which the chosen designer was to help design the layout of an Applied Arts magazine.
The information within a boarding pass is not always upfront and readable. The hierarchical information is not always discerned by the viewer and this sometimes leads to confusion about a flight's particulars and even possibly leading to someone missing a flight.

The Canadian postal system offer a wide range of stamps with varying unique designs. While celebrating different typographers, the goal of the project was to create a set of stamps and stamp sheets to reflect the chosen typographer and his/her history. In this case I chose to celebrate Baskerville, a Canadian used typeface that was brought to Canada by Benjamin Franklin.
