Genetically Modified Foods Project

As part of our course we had to participate in an interdisciplinary project where we worked with other students from different disciplines in animation, graphic design and illustration.

In my group there were two graphic designers, an illustrator and me, the animator. We were given a topic of genetically modified food and we had to produce a research poster, a map or journey of GM food, and another outcome of our choice.

Here is our research poster

We chose do do our map in the form of the board game snakes and ladders, where instead of snakes and ladder we used earthworms and DNA strands. It is called Generic Ups and Downs. As well as  the board game we made the box, instruction leaflet and counters for the game.  We also decided to make GM snap cards as the second part of our project.

We got the chance to Exhibit our work in one of the university's galleries and both games were well received.

I really enjoyed this project and my group worked really well together.
