A peek inside the first of 2 handmade books I made to be hidden inside baguettes.
Based on my visits to France, they're full of unusual facts and advice that I picked from my friends there.
Baguette books
For my final piece, I made these books and hid them inside baguettes because they're full of secret facts about French cities. They're basically guidebooks for people travelling to the North (Paris, the top half of the baguette) and/or South (Toulouse, the bottom half) of France.
The idea struck me when I visited to both places in April and stayed with friends who revealed information about each city that you wouldn't find in a normal guidebook. I wanted to share this in a unique way, so I used bread to make the facts and drawings in the books a more sensory experience.
I also thought it might be fun to market this as a product for students, they could eat the bread for lunch and keep the books as a memory of their trip. I'll be uploading the drawings soon.

Yes we did plan those matching outfits. YES. WE DID.

An animation I made in February with my friends Oliver and Jamie; we started with the sound and built the images around it.

Ginger disaster
I sent this out instead of a Christmas card, the idea being that simply wishing people a Merry Christmas is boring/overdone, so what better way to greet those you love, than telling them not to burn to death.
I went for the more lighthearted top one, as the music on the one below makes it very sinister.
Hope you had a lovely Christmas!
