As part of Unit X its vital that I collect as much research as possible and have been advised to create a Pintrest. This has also been a great starting point to gather secondary research. Ive started into looking into fairgrounds which is the main theme but then after looking into what Blackpool and Belle Vue. I've found a number of designers that have used fairgrounds in their catwalk shows. The one that stood out for me the most was Louis Vuitton's Spring/Summer 2012 catwalk show.
I've then started to look into the typography you see when you go to a fairground/circus. The boldness of it really caught my eye and how they light it us with huge bulbs. The colours as well can be very bright and this adds that to the spectacular impact I feel it gives to the overall affect of being at the fairground. circus etc...
When in Blackpool I saw what looked like a pupper in a glass cabinet. When you put 20p in it, the puppet laughed. Was quite creepy but I've never been a fan of puppets and clowns as child, but it reminded me of fortune tellers being in the booths and reading tarot cards. This is something I'm going to look further into as I think it will be interesting to research into.
