I Know What You Did Last Summer (IKWYDLS)

IKWYDLS is a tradition of the Innovation Design Engineering class at the Royal College of Art / Imperial College, London (of which I am a part of), where the students who move from the first to the second year make 3 minute films or give 3 minute presentations to show what they did between the two years, in the summer.

To me, the name itself felt like a noir film, and I decided to roll with this first idea I got. I’ve not made many films in the past - let alone films with a narrative or humour. While I was making it, I thought that this was either the stupidest thing I’d ever made or the funniest (Thankfully the response meant it was the latter).

Since I couldn’t speak of much of my work at my internships, (being under NDAs) I decided to keep it deliberately nebulous and devoid of detail.

The same attention you give to elements like color, shape, typography, symbols, space and texture should be the same attention you give to scale. Without checking on the scale as you design, you stand to compromise the entire work since it will have a direct impact on the…

The wonderful thing I see in the future is that designers, who used to be relegated to putting the beautiful finishing touches on something at the last minute, are now being brought in at the beginning of the conversation because our way of thinking is valued in solving big, complex problems. That is the future for design.
