Iconic narrative | part 1.

This week I drew three series of sketches based around the central theme of telling short stories through the use of icons and pictograms.

This development work continued the theme of the prevous weeks research - to examine the lack of differentiation found within images and icons.

Iconic narrative | part 2.

The second narrative is based on emotive representation in icons. Similar to icons on mobile phone, and also used to convey emotions in emails (referred to sometimes as 'smileys'), the icons I have developed were developed as pictograms. The final piece may be created as a HTML/JavaScript page or within Flash.
