OHS Footwear Sign addresses the comfort issue that many workers have had with safety boots in the past. The OH&S officers for most companies these days know that footwear companies have addressed that issue and that a great range of safe products exist


OHS Goggles Sign gives workers that last minute reminder that grinder blades/ by-products don't mix


OHS Fire Equipment Sign addresses common procedures (alerting) to the responders


OHS Signs- May have been able to lower the text at centre but pleased the sign addresses the OHS issue of untrained staff proceeding work without the right training or chemical data


Hey all
The OHS learning activity here was to redesign an office/workstation as we would like to have it. The layout allows me room to move for those moments my legs need blood returning to them and the intended furniture addresses shortcomings in my current situation. The mobile hessian noticeboard in centre was a must have for my secondary viewing

This ad is definitely playful and has taken a child's toy concept of Jack-In-A-Box and imitated the surprise of  the spring release. This relates well to vitality and the intended product benefit.


This ad conveyed tension well. The sense that the mum in this ad is likely to fall graphically captures the viewer to then read on or discover the relationship between the product and the image

 The symmetry in this ad represented ORDER which I imagine makes it easier to find an item amongst multiple items

The simplicity of reverting the angle capturing the toilet in this ad conveys a good example of increase with objects within the frame


This add was a good representation of congested


This ad best represented BOLD with the magnification of the drivers face through the side mirror.

LA 03 Positive and negative form


The request in this activity was to focus on the background to an object rather than the object itself. Whilst this seemed awkward at first, it really does make you focus intently on the space surrounding the desired object. It really supported my increased understanding of the whole space within the frame being considered when presenting objects for someone to view.

LA 02 Black Squares


This activity required using combinations of black square shapes to convey a message graphically about 6 words. Initially I was puzzled but then as I just drew without concern or apprehension as to the finished product, I found that this was a fabulous exercise that not only forces you to think graphically but also builds confidence as you go.

Line art freehand drawing and best dpi



The learning curve for this activity was the importance of choice for the background material. Also selecting the right dpi to scan the image to show the line art whilst reducing the imprint of the background material meant 600 dpi was the best setting.
