Over the course of four weeks my team assisted in helping the Video Art Installation class pick a title and theme for their final project as well as created promotional materials and gallery vinyl’s.

Project Overview


Video Art Installation is a class led by artist and PSU Art and Design Instructor Julie Perini. Using analog film technology, the students create over the course of a term their own experimental artworks. This culminates in a pop up art show at the end of the quarter lasting only a week.

Julie Perini reached out to A+D Projects to design the promotional materials for this show as well as help the class come up with a title and unifying concept for their upcoming showcase.


Process


Preview of discussion template. 


My roles on the Video Installation Team were that of a design researcher and project manager. I created generative materials to facilitate discussion and exploration around overlapping themes in the students work. We met with the class over zoom and I shared a google slides link to a presentation I made with opening questions on content and then held an open ended discussion. This resulted in a title for the showcase: Channel 2022.


Semifinal design directions presented to the class. 


After presenting three separate pitch directions to the artists, Direction number One was chosen (shown below), and our team began production.



Visual expirimentation through type exploration and scanner painting.

Outcomes


As a group we used the scanner painting technique to create distorted versions of a wordmark. These were used to create the official logo, meant for use in gallery vinyl and in promotional materials for the show.
