Project 5: Pay to play

In this project our tutors gave us a brief which used money as our motivation. The task was redesigning a one pound coin that reflects our current economic crisis. I first began by brain storming everything that I could think of that relates to the economic crisis, such as the rise in taxes and job cuts. I then drew mini sketches in my sketchbook. By using Photoshop In the end I used the red dropping arrow a graph and deliberately showed a prime minister clapping and grinning as if to say everything is ok because that is how I see it portrayed in the media today.

I may not have won the prize but the project was fun and made me think outside the box
