Studio Brief 1 - Initially: A - Z Poster Final & 200 Word Evaluation

Final poster as a whole
Contents of the pockets
I feel this brief went well and that I really pushed myself when it came to delivering on an idea. Choosing to do such a large amount of paper engineering for this brief meant that time management was an issue. The pockets themselves were not the main part of the brief however most time was spent on creating them. Not a lot of time was left for the contents of the pockets to be drawn and if I had another chance at this poster, I would spend more time on the contents and maybe fill the pockets with a variety of items linked to that letter (as pockets usually have more than one item in them), or even theme the pockets and their contents to represent a certain person e.g artist, thief, pirate etc.

As a poster, I think it catches the eye and works well although I am not sure how practical it is. The weight of the poster is considerable more than most posters and I would have a hard time rolling it up. These issues could be down to using different stock media. 
My poster does have its uses though and once up on a wall could be used to store a variety of items such as flyers, letters, business cards etc.

Overall I am really pleased with the outcome of the poster and I feel it has answered the brief in terms of the theme of pockets and its individual contents being something personal. I also reached my own aim in producing something a little different from 26 drawn vignettes and I was able to produce something that stands out and that the viewer can interact with.
