This piece was my interview with josh millgate laser cut into a block of wood. The piece was informed from the interview itself and Josh's advice for me to utilise universities equipment to the best of my ability. So I got a hand from Joe on how to use the laser cutter and took Josh's advice. This piece it to show how I can take and use insights from my chosen creative to produce interesting and well informed designs. The layout of the piece is created to be aligned left to right for maximum readability I experimented with manipulation of text to fit Millgates design style but decided against this as legibility and readability began to fall. However this design still falls down when it comes to read and legibility, as the typeface is rastered into the wood legibility becomes slightly reduced because the outlines are not as sharp as they could be. In the future I would allow the laser cutter to go over the piece twice, I have been informed this is how you can over come this issue or maybe create a press to print the interview off. When it came to photographing the interview I had an issue with the text being properly visible within the photos. I tryed out a number of location to find the best backdrop because I was planning to break my other piece I wanted to find somewhere that was suitable. The most suitable spots seemed to be outside.
