1 Week to go!!

Hi, looks like its nearly here, we have just one week to go before the intervention takes place.
We've had some great advice and support throughout the project.
We would especially like to thank Erdington Arts Forum. They have supported us by taking the time to help us consider practicalities or street/intervention art. Gave us details about the Erdington area and possibilities for other activities later in the year. So thank you very much.

Meeting with Erdington Arts Forum

We arranged to meet up with Simon and Ev from Erdington Arts Forum. Nothing formal, just a coffee and a chat about what our plans were and how we could work with the Art Forum to generate a little publicity and some support. The meeting was great. They had lots of ideas for contacts and they were a fountain of knowledge when it came to Erdington centre. They really liked the idea and planned to come along to the event as well as support us by writing about us on their blog site.
Nicola had the 1st batch of poster printed today to put around Erdington, in shop fronts and such. Alicja posted a poster of the event in a Polish run food shop. The owners found the idea of the installation very interesting and wanted to be informed of any other events like this one in the future.


Later that day we went back to the university to practice with all the indeed text Alicja wanted to use on the day of the project. We only spent about an hour on it. But it was again good practice to set up and get going (minus the generator).

Test shoot for POLSKI 24th of Nov (PM)

We had a test run on the 24th of November at Fay's. Alicja, myself, Fay, Kate and Bec (photographer) were all present and freezing cold!
Initially it was to see that the all the equipment worked together. The generator, laptop and projector. Then to test run the projection itself. To test whether it worked and was visible on people in the dark. I think it actually look great, it was a good idea to have a variation of size and direction with projected text. The effect to witness captured your attention, without a doubt. To actually have the text projected onto you was a weird feeling. It made you feel a little like you were accommodating something living. See what you think. Obviously the imagery has been treated to get in all the action, but its suits!

The designs re-visited!

Ha, they have been updated! The A6 flyers and the A3 posters in both English and Polish.
All present and correct.
