Collide exhabition
I set my book out on a plinth at the exhibition, with the book standing and slightly open so you can see the pages at a glance and then set the best cards out in front with the card pack laid behind. I wanted the users to play with the book and look in it so I made the piece look inviting and interesting. The mistake I made was not having a front over at the time, the cover may have enticed people a little more but nether the less I got a lot of interest and enjoyed listing in to peoples feedback. I was told that it was very well drawn, very cute and a lot of people commented on the paper type I used. I defiantly think the paper was a god idea. I also had people ask how I made it and how delicate and lovely it looed. I was so happy with the outcome and the amount of people I saw playing with it because I was unsure o the reception I would receive.
I took photos of people using my book but without them knowing at the time as this gave me an indication of what they were saying and dong without them knowing the creator was present.
I am very happy with my outcome as in the middle of my project I was worrying about how to drawn my illustrations and how the book would look in the end but I think for the fun lighthearted nature of the project I did well to personalise and have fun with it.
