Unit 12 Live Brief; Inspirational Mood Board

As part of the submission checklist for this project, I was required to complete an A2 mood board of secondary research that was both inspirational and interpretive to me as an individual. Seeking a higher aspirational goal-combined with a Pinterest board of nearly triple figures-I decide to double that required size-to A1. The images for this project were collected from the Pinterest site, and pinned to a board on my own wall.

With that in mind, I stuck 2 A2 sheets together and got to quickly sketching a huge silhouette outline of a heavily expectant mother, my feminist twist on this, is that I would fill the inside of this outline with images that represented my choice to be a childless woman.
The intention I had in mind for this mood board, is that I would provide me with many, many  inspirational ideas that related to my interpretation of the project.  

Now it did take MUCH longer than anticipated to construct this outline.-around 4 hours almost, and on reflection I should've factored in this time constraint.

Once I had successfully drawn this outline, it was time then to fill in the centre-with more than the single anticipated trip to the printer required. (After the first trip, I had ran out of content and had to return back to a PC, for a further two collections for extra content)

From an overall perspective of the sheet, I am hugely proud of the way it has turned out. When I first constructed the rough outline it looked messy and unsightly, but those negative thoughts swiftly evaporated as the sheet became more and more layered, and the empty space, generously filled.

Reflecting on this completing sheet, I feel that I am more confident about my interpretive route, and with much stronger ideas about the whole individual approach to the project.
