Back to Basics...


After a few weeks of developing our individual ideas, it was decided that we were to look at and research things that mean something to us, that inspire us but still have that connection. Music, being one of my favourite things, lead me to thinking about Michael Jackson ( a favoured artist of mine) and all of the charity work he did for the Africans, also, he himself was an African-American. This lead to me thinking specifically about the 1985 hit charity song "We Are The World " which was written by Lionel Richie & Michael Jackson and was performed by a USA supergroup which featured members from many cultures and ethnic backgrounds. I looked in particular at the artwork in which was used on the covers of the singles for the style of the typeface and the imagery.
