VisCom2: Everest's Final Phase

So we are ending the icon project with a bang. By using our icons combined with image and text, we are creating new pieces with new meaning. These are going to be set as a hypothetical exhibition in the Smithsonian museum, and we have to create all the advertising and march for the exhibition.

Here are some ideas for possible exhibition titles/ directions to move in:

  1. Into the Unknown
  2. The Nomad
  3. Crossing Continents
  4. The Unplotted Journey
  5. Leaving a Footprint
  6. The Trekker's Tools
  7. Uncharted Territory
  8. Trek
  9. Braving the Elements
  10. A Chilly Fascination
  11. Man vs. Nature
  12. Comrades in Cold
For the advertising, I'll be creating a book and a couple mock ups to represent the advertising campaign. I'm currently thinking about using the following merchanise to represent the exhibition:

  1. Letterheads, stamps, and Postcards
  2. Patches
  3. Posters
  4. Carabiners
  5. Scarfs and Hats
  6. Shopping bags
  7. Street Banners
  8. Billboards

  1. Great that you are brainstorming new applications - I especially think the patches, stamps, carabiners, scarf/hat are appropriate for your exhibit. You will do the others as well (with the exception of the letterhead and poster).

    I've listed those titles I feel are strongest:

    1. Into the Unknown
    3. Crossing Continents
    4. The Unplotted Journey
    5. Leaving a Footprint
    6. The Trekker's Tools
    7. Uncharted Territory
    8. Trek
    11. Man vs. Nature
    12. Comrades in Cold
