cardiff met exhibition – 28-03-17

Today I visited my brother at uni. He is currently studying graphic communication at Cardiff metropolitan university. The purpose of my trip was to not only see my brother, but he had a group project of his in an exhibition. The exhibition consisted of work from graphic designers, illustrators and animators. They had all been doing field work, where they had researched a cause and made a campaign about that chosen cause. My brothers group did theirs on dyslexia, dyscalculia and dysgraphia. Their project was one of my favourites, I’m not just saying that because he’s my brother but they’d really thought about their subject, and got their point across clearly and professionally. To be brutally honest, I wasn’t impressed by a huge amount of the work. A lot of it was work I would have expected to see at the beginning of a project rather than a final outcome, and seeing as the groups had 6 weeks to produce something, I wasn’t blown away. But saying that some of the ideas and final outcomes were interesting and I could see them improving with more time given.
