We were given another opportunity to be part of Hastings Illustration festival. This year we had the option of crating animations, doing the window murals, or providing work for or helping out on the stall which we were given on the Sunday. I decided to help out with the stall. As a class we were making a zine featuring work from everyone on the course. It would also contain our contact information. It was interesting to see the whole process of making a zine, from the initial collection of the artwork to the printing and binding. As we did not have very long to make the zine, everyone got involved which brought us closer together and allowed us to get the task completed on time. One of the ways in which I got involved was to attach the covers to the zine. I also wanted to create some postcards to sell. Due to the short time span of this project I decided to use a design that I had made during the summer project. I then put it into illustrator and traced the lines, so that I could get a good quality print. After doing this I brought some 300gsm card and printed, then trimmed my design so that they were A6 size. The final postcard is shown below. Overall I enjoyed being a part of Hifest this year and being able to visit on the Saturday and seeing the window murals being illustrated as well as seeing all of the other illustrators and creators that were there was amazing. I would have liked to create an animation, but unfortunately didn't get the chance to with all of the other projects I was working on.
