WEEK 2
Shtilyan, the lifesaver
In the beginning, the fact that Shtilyan was in Bulgaria was a bit frustrating. In the end, it turned out to be our solution to our problems. He, with a fresh mind, came up with an amazing concept inspired by Chaldni's technique. We then talked about it, and tried to implement this idea into our concept. We then decided to create an interactive installation with a hologram as well as sounds, that people can control with their hand movements.
​
Getting our concept clear was not an easy thing. We had to talk to a lot of professors, as well as Jacob - a super cool artist - and the owner of the skate shop in the city. We god a lot of inspiration, and we finally got our concept straight.
Week 3
During week three, I started working on the brand identity of our installation. I started with designing our logo and choosing colors for our brand.
The process of creating the logo was interesting and required a lot of visual research and inspiration. My goal for it was to capture the skate/urban vibe and in the same time represent what our installation does - visualizes sound. It was a struggle to find a way of combining these two, quite different things. In order to achieve that I did a lot of sketches and experimented with a Photoshop brush.

In the end I came up with a design that captures the urban vibe, the sound and movement all at once. The final design was chosen by a consensus among our team and everyone was happy with it.

Later that week I created the first poster with our logo in order to make sure I am on right track.
