Visual Language-3D letter

In this visual language session we were creating a 2 dimensional letterform on surfaces which are on different planes. ach group had to breing in a number of boxes ranging from a size of a matchstick box to a shoe box. We then arranged the boxes to overlap each other when looked atthrough a view finder the boxes then will look like a flat plane .



The aim of this project is to creat a letterform that, if you look at it through one particular angle it will look like a 2D letterform , in this case, the letter M .If you move from that point and look at it in any other angle the letter will become unrocognisable.

This was a group brief and i would have probably been impossible to do by yourself. We constantly needed someone to be looking at the work through a view finder and guide another person to place the right mark on the right box.










Our way of tackling this was to take of a photograph of the arranged boxes looked through the view finder and then photoshop out letter over the image and then print it off.

From looking at the photograph we can then identify which boxes contain which part of the letter form.
We started off by drawing an outline of each part of the letter onto the box and then sticking pieces of black card cut into the shape needed over the outlines.

This was the final outcome ( it was unfinished as we didnt have enough time)
