D&AD Briefs

Definite No
Unilever
BBC

I think this is too twee and i do not like lipton, marmite, persil or simple. I dont feel like I have any want to work with these brands as I have no interest in them. BBC is a exploration of Web design, but I feel the BBC is a bit to mainstream and I don't feel like I have enough knowledge to add to this brief yet.

Maybe
Make Your Mark
It's Nice That
V&A
Dazed

Make your Mark is fun and is a sneaky way of getting self promotion to count as part of my grade for FMP. This sort of brief could be me branding myself and creating a great promotional print package to Bristol and Manchester Design Studios. I love 'It's Nice That' and to design something for this would be something I would want to have in my portfolio. It is a fun source that showcase a lot of new fresh talent. At first I thought V&A was a boring and uninteresting brief, but the board would be a image design that I think would be a short brief. It could be expanding to promotional material, V&A is a Museum and I wanted to do a Museum Branding and I wanted to improve my image skills. Dazed is also a potential short brief with a submission of just one image, this would also help me to expand my photography and image knowledge, something I would like to explore. 

I prefer the D&AD briefs but I feel that they are way more diverse than the ISTD. With the ISTD briefs if you do not like the subject, you will not like the brief. Some are so open I do not want to try and tackle them.
