The Season ‘ SEED’
2021 University Multimedia Campaign
Project Contributor: Sarah Griffiths-Smith Sophie: Illustration/Print Media/Website Sarah: Animation/Website
This assignment asked Sarah and I to one, link and construct a narrative between three of Warren Maxwell's songs, which becomes the foundation for a series of three theatre productions hosted by our theoretical client BATS Theatre. Two, to create a platform which users can use to explore what these said plays are about, enabling them to go on further to attend the set of three plays. Three, create print media to allow the surrounding community to know of its existence and create buzz. Four, to create a short animation which allows potential attendees to gather a feeling of what is within The Season of Seed.
Through Maxwell's songs, Little Things, Peaceful Man and Te Oranga we found a theme of growth, how life repeats itself in an ever-growing continuous cycle.
Te Oranga symbolises growing as a person, ageing and battling the elements of nature. Little Things, speaks about having setbacks, those little things that tear you down, however, realising a helping hand is always nearby and come full circle to Peaceful Man, a story about growing as a person and starting a new, hoping for the near future, learning from your past experiences and putting them in a positive light as a path for new growth.
