Four for third

My 4 briefs for the beginning of third year, based on what I want and what I need.

Statement

Revised statement...
"A print based investigation into editorial and branding
with a focus on hand-drawn lettering."

How I got there...

• Editorial and branding for printed media and formats with a focus on hand-drawn lettering.
• A printed publication investigation of the creative sector with a focus on illustrative/headline design, typography and layout. 
• Editorial and print based, with a focus on typography, form and media.
• Illustrative and decorative letterforms with an application to editorial and branding, focussing on printed media. 
• Custom lettering for editorial and branding with a focus on printed media and function. 

What do I want? What do I need?
