2. website for the show featuring student work this will be both online and on our imac g5's in the show space.
3. video showreell shown in the space via plasma.
4. rotating carousel to serve the student's portfolios to the public.
5. 20 metre by 2.5 metre graphic wall showing samples of the student's work.
6. 30 page broadsheet catalogue/introduction to graphic design at chelsea including proff. commissions and features.
7. l.e.d. signage outside the space made from 120 osram dot-it lights.
8. free drinks to those invited to the gdcomm show and the friends and family event.
9. 37 students ready to show their folios to industry and public.

pixel wall replaced by graphic

The idea for the pixel wall was originally based on some plans for a diy dancefloor we found on the net and was to display moving pixel blocks of colour or perhaps text. However the varying lighting levels during showtime and the lack of space to scroll explanations of projects has meant the show srteering group dropping it in favour of show information and giant graphic image on the front and on the back will be a series of circular holes from which people can take a broadsheet catalogue on the way out of the show. We still have the possibility of scrolling led signage elsewhere in the show and of course the dot-it led lights on the outside of the triangle space. This will give the oppertunity to make a big statement to introduce the show.
