Information and ideas collect from the Historic Quay visit



This is the videos that I recorded while I was visiting the museum, I didnt record all of the video because they were ten minutes long and didn't contain any information that I needed.

Pictures taken

This slideshow contains all the photographs I taken in the muesum.

Research the history of Hartlepool and ideas


This is a footer I have found on the Hartlepool martitime experiance website it moves from left to right showing a panoramic of the historic quay. I was thinking about using this idea but instead of the panormaic of the historic quay I will be showing a timeline starting from 50 maybe 60 years ago and travel through time till the present day.


Another idea is to do an animatic a bit like the example above, this is what I made for my other subject (photography). I was thinking of getting some models and get all the different types of clothing to represent that time, also collect different images of a street that has changed in time. Then I will put the pictures together and the model will be walking along the street traveling through time to this present day.

I will be visiting the historic quay in Hartlepool (home town) out side of college, I will be looking around to collect some information and ideas. From the different activities available in the area, I will have access to all of the historic quay because I am a member of the Hartlepool Sea Cadets and this allows me to go on HMS Trincomalee.

Final piece of work brief

Using one of the techniques introduced and perfected within the course you are to produce a series of narrative images that clearly depicts the following information:

Hartlepool, as a town, has evolved drastically over the last 100 years. It has witnessed many historical events; from WW2 German attacks to serious social and urban decline. It has enjoyed short periods of prosperity and, along the way, many examples of local achievement along with scandal. As a graphic artist, you have been asked to pitch a proposal to the local council to produce a narrative image body of work that tells the story of this town over 100 years depicting its most defining moments. The pictures must tell the story of Hartlepool and conclude with an optimistic image for a brighter future.
