Tutorial

My tutorial with Fred the other day went really well and has got me even more excited about my final project! Rather than just focusing on the theme of Good vs Bad I need to more look at it as opposites as it opens up everything to make the scope of this even broader as I do plan to continue this brief and keep it on going into the future.

However, for the final exhbition I plan to encompass around the theme of food and looking at the opposites within this. As well as making the toys for this range I now plan to create the packaging for it. Within the tutorial we talked about making big bags of marshmellows, from looking at the marshmellows that I had made before. Which then stemmed onto ideas like making big bags of mixed veg and egg cartons and lolly pops with the sticks. Since then I have thought of many more ideas and thought that it would be best to start to make lists of the different ideas, and then from there I can select the best.


Food                                 Packaging

- Pizza slices                  - Big pizza box
- Ice Lollies         - Wooden lolly sticks - potentially in a box 
- Lolly pops                                       - Plastic lolly stick 
- Chocolate Chip Cookies            - Big cookie jar 
- Marshmellows                      - Big plastic bag 
- Sweeties               - Sweet wrappers - big tin (like how you would get a tin of roses)
- Dolly mixture          - In a paper or plastic bag - A sweet jar
- Ice Creams             - Card box - Wrapper around the cone
- Cupcakes               - Cupcake cases
- Burger and Fries       - Fast food boxes - Tray 


- Strawberries 
- Carrots                - Farmers wooden box/pellet type box? could put bits of soil in?
- Bananas                - Stickers to put on them
- Apples                 - Stickers similar to the bananas
- Nuts                   - Plastic bag 
- Mixed peas and sweet corn           - Bag  
- Watermelon 
- Potatoes               - Big potato sack 
- Eggs                   - Giant egg carton
( I have looked into whether you can buy giant egg cartons but it doesnt seem to be possible, but I remember when I was making my resin cats in ceramics before Christmas and there were people in there making paper. So just a thought, it might be worth asking if it would be some how be possible to use the paper pulp to some how sculpt a big egg box?)
