For this brief, we got given a partner and had to find out a lot about them and compile a list of information that sums them up. From this list, we drew 128 images, 64 for their first initial (A) and 64 for their second (M).
1. Family
2. Ambition
3. Home
4. Badminton
5. Disney
6. Crazy
7. TV
8. Books
...these are the words I focused on for the 128 images which are shown above.

...these are the words I focused on for the 128 images.
Drawing these 128 images proved a challenge. I felt that doing 128 images that included an initial in monochrome at a specific size felt very constrained and is not what my usual drawing approach is. However, these limitations are good for practice of real world briefs and I learnt a lot about how to scamp properly from this task.
We then needed to refine them down to just 5 key images that worked the best. Above are the 5 ideas that I thought communicated my friend's personality the most. These 5 images are the basis for my final piece that I will have finished by Friday 18th October. The aim of my 5 drawings was to communicate the idea rather than being visually attractive which I feel that I achieved.
Some of the feedback that I received from my peers over my chosen 5 was that they "answer the brief", the hug drawing was "cute", the TV remote "gets the message across" but I "could incorporate letters into the remote" and also that my badminton drawing "reminds (them) of Nick Sharatt".
