Paste Up.

I have begun developing Wallpaper visuals based around various different themes.Here are a couple of examples.

Obsessions

In the group discussion, we discussed how the wallpaper could be a projection of self image i.e what makes up us as people. It may be our daily routine, the clothes we wear, our hobbies interests, job, friends, family etc. What things happen behind closed doors? private rituals, personal habits, essential possessions etc.

I discussed how I have an obsession with taking my make-up off, and how before I moved out I used to worry about whether the sink would be okay in my new bathroom ( obviously in retrospect, potentially was suffering minor OCD symptoms) even when in a ridic state of inebriation, still I manage to take it off.

Old to New.

Wallpaper can often stay on a wall for a very long time, say 50 years, and within this time ,so much of the space the wallpaper occupies will change. I wanted to try and portray this change.

I wanted to find a way to amalgamate the old with the new. I decided to explore sexuality and try to combine the sexually rigid attitudes of the 40s and 5os, and juxtapose this with the sexually liberal attitudes of today. Asking the question, Has sexual libration gone too far?

I looked in mens magazines of now and returned to women's magazines of the 40s and 50s.

Although there are drastic differences in the way that women are portrayed now and the sexual attitudes and behavior of women is very different. I felt that looking through the mens magazines, that some themes hadn't changed in the fact that women were still being objectified and still portrayed as empty-headed but pretty. This may perhaps be the fault of the women themselves, to volunteer themselves to be portrayed in this way, purely to please their predominantly male audience. Either way it seems that dispite a huge shift in society's attitudes about men and women, that some things may never change. This is an idea that I am going pursue in my development of this project.

BBC TWO

A History Of Idents.

Although both part of the BBC, the two channels need to have thier own subtle identity, now unified by Lambie-Nairn's logo, however these new idents (2009) give the channel an ownership.

BBC ONE

The BBC have gone through many idenitities, yet have remained a pillar of society within Britain.

It's come a long way since 1936.

BBC One.

First Ident "the Bats Wings" (1953-63) Created by Abram Games.

Designed by Lambi-Nairn, who also designed The 1997 relaunch of the corporation's logo utilising the Gill Sans font, which has remained across most channels. (lambie-Nairn also designed the 'block' logo for channel 4.

Red Bee Media

"Our brief was to try and ensure that what we emerged with at the end - within the tight constraints of idents: twelve seconds and a living hold - was something that would reward repeat viewing.

"The pitch-winning idea was a simple one and was born directly from how controller Peter Fincham talks about his vision for the channel. To celebrate BBC One's unique ability to bring people together, we highlighted magical moments when people come together as one.

"We chose the symbol of a circle for a number of reasons. Throughout history it has been an emblem of unity. It's the shape we make when gathering to listen to a story. And it's a subtle reference to BBC One's own history. Its very first idents, even before the globe, always referenced a circle in some way.

Channel 4

Every channel has it's own personality. Factors to consider:

• Logo
• Idents
• Soundtrack/Jingle
• Programme announcements
• TV guide
• Website
• Merchandise
• Billboards
• Posters
• Promotion
• Target Audience

etc...

Channel 4

Every Channel has to start somewhere. The first voiceover ever heard on Channel 4 was that of Paul Coia he said : "good afternoon.It's a pleasure to be able to say to you: Welcome to Channel 4"

The soundtrack of channel 4 was 'Fourscore' composed by Lord david Dundas, and can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8-_8Pc-YGk

The first programme to air was Countdown and the first person to be seen on channel four was Richard Whiteley and second, and first woman was Carol Vorderman.
