ARTIST RESEARCH
Stefan Sagmeister (born August 6, 1962) is a New York-based graphic designer and typographer. Sagmeister co-founded a design firm called Sagmeister & Walsh Inc, with Jessica Walsh in New York City. He has designed album covers for Lou Reed, OK Go, The Rolling Stones, David Byrne, Jay Z, Aerosmith and Pat Metheny. I decided to look at Stefan Sagmeisters work because it appealed to me and i went to the library in the university and searched on summon for a book and i found a book of his work and it shows a few pieces he has created. I wanted to do some background research on this paticular designer as his work is inspirational and also the layout of his work is great. I then looked at his happy show exhibition which has a lot of work that relates to the brief.
The Happy Show is comprised of an array of engaging infographics, video projections, and interactive installations, including a stationary bike that powers a wall of neon, a Confronted with stories about wellness, mindfulness, and sexuality, viewers will be immersed in an experience akin to walking into Sagmeister’s mind. Sagmeister, who has documented his struggles with alcohol and drugs, weight gain, and depression, first conceptualized The Happy Show in an attempt to define and control his own happiness during a client-free sabbatical—a year-long break he takes every seven years to creatively recharge. The final display is the result of 10 years of research into his own personal happiness. One of the largest exhibitions in MOV’s 120-year history, this astonishing experience transcends the boundary between art and design. It takes over museum galleries and in-between spaces-stairwells, hallways, and restrooms-in order to ask: what makes us happy?
Idea 1-3 summary
Idea1- the music video to a good song that i can relate to and vinyl covers for the album. Sam Rothery riptide music and artist, i could get the rights off tom to use song.
Idea2 - to produce story of drawings to show what makes me happy and what i think are possibilities of events that are yet to come. then project animation on top of drawings
Idea3 - inspiration wall to inspire me in the future for future career, include things that inspire me therefore i enjoy looking at and making me happy. Not sure what digital aspect i would do but id use stencils and paint to produce the wall. Could produce stencils on laser cutter.

Alyana Cazalet
With the playful eye of a cartoonist, Alyana is intuitive and spontaneous once she puts ink to paper. She likes to create images that say more than words can express.
There’s the element of surprise, along with lots of movement and energy, in Alyana’s work.
Her style is expressive and carnival-esque, and it’s evolving all the time as she experiments with new techniques and different media. She’s influenced by everything from Jazz to dark Russian literature, and from Hieronymus Bosch to the Moomins.
