project developments since the last module.

So I have had a 2 week or so break for Easter from this project and I know learned I have little over a month to get this done. So that pretty annoying. Although I did no physical work over the past two weeks I have had time to think and stir over the project and where I think it should go in terms of development. 

I do now know what will be my outcomes for the project in more detail now, I plan to still make the skate-able piece and the branding for the project. But I think the main thing with the branding will be a series of posters which will accompany the project. The poster will have information about the history and key moments for skating. This will hopefully allow people to understand skateboarding more. 

With this development of the project I think that the message of it is slightly changing also. Its original intention was to show that skateboarding and the skate culture is not what it is being stereotyped as which is trouble causing youths etc. but it is in fact quite a creative and passionate culture. This seems to of changed to more of informing people about skateboarding and its culture and history which will hopefully allow people to understand it more. 

I think that the building of a skate-able piece may of lost its meaning a little with this turn, however I would still like to create something. This will hopefully still carry some meaning and intention rather than just being there.  It seems like a little bit of a grey area for me at the moment, however I will continue development of the branding side and think about the possibilities of the skate-able piece.
