Business card

Hey~~

Does anyone want to place your contact details in front of your artworks in the exhibition?

I think it may b a good idea that we can make our own business cards for both ourselves and the visitors, just in case they are interested in us ^^

If we are going to make it, do we make our cards in the same format/design?

or we design for our own ones?

Just a little suggestion ^^

Hi everyone ^^

Although I said that I would post this to the blog before, haven't done so till now, sori Shane...

Actually, I have a little suggestion for the projection in the space:

Do u guys think it's a good idea to project the clouds animation that i made, onto the ceiling and floor in the exhibition space?

As the clouds are hand made as well, so i think it still suits the theme? @w@??

We can also make the clouds (still images) glows on the wall under the UV light, I found they reali look good in the dark backgroud ^^
pls see the samples below
(there are more on my blog if u want to see: hmremidesigndiary.blogspot.com)

Soooo... how is it? Just tell whatever u think, pls ^^

Angularisation

i kind of defaced the poster design a bit and ended up with this angular looking thing...just putting it out there...i think it still fits in with the Handmade theme since it looks like cut out paper.

Things that glow in UV

http://www.wellsj.com/library/uv.shtml

Apparently tonic water looks cool, maybe we keep the jars from the foetus exhibition and full them with tonic water for the UV exhibition.

UV

When I think UV I think Ultra Violent

Some resources

I've made a webpage where ive put the illustrator file of the poster mockup, the source files for the website prototype, and will add the AI file for the website mockup once I make it smaller (its like 180mb atm!). You can use them to make any suggestions or alterations etc. Shane, I can put your drawings and layouts on there too if you want to make it easier. go to www.nemenvisual.com/mmda09/
