Having chosen this theme, a mood board was created as part of the presentation: with Britain having a particularly iconic culture that is reknowned worldwide, many of these elements such as the Union Jack's red, white and blue colours, as well as our Royalty and of course the UK's love for sausage rolls and alcohol were incoorporated into this mood board:
This was presented to the rest of the lecture group simply as it is, with a short clip of the national anthem being played to help get the point across. Ultimately, it was up to everyone else in the group, including ourselves, to pick any of the other ideas from other groups that were presented: Best of Britain lost out to the far more popular Third Dimension concept.
In hindsight, I wasn't entirely keen on the idea that we initially presented. That may be because, with the UK's culture being around us day in and day out in some way or another, it doesn't come across to me personally as being something particularly new or exciting to display for an exhibition.
With the concept presentation done and out of the way, the class was split into three teams: one handling exhibition related things, another designing a website for the exhibition, and finally the graphics team who will design the posters, flyers and such for the exhibition. With me wanting an opportunity to further develop my skills in graphic design, I joined the latter team.
