OUIL405 Initial Research

Wine tasting allowed me to research something that I enjoy (wine) within more depth as well as getting some first hand practical research in.

It was much easier to get research from people (such as the waitress) as they expect you to talk to them and thought I found myself spending most of my tim developing research from my own personal experience, learning about the wines and the establishment helps in developing your own assumptions.

There is a progression throughout my sketchbook when I am wine tasting where it is easy to see how the wine effect my thought process and the way I document my research. It's an interesting way to look at going about a book, creating it with increased intoxication however it's not a smart thing for me to do. 

I felt it easier to create visual notes with written annotations as away of collecting research, both primary and secondary.

I do begin to fall into character design after a while. It's unintentional but it feel like the most effective ways of displaying the things I have learnt. Though at this point the drawings where based more loosely of the research than the other drawings. 

A mixture of my drunkenness and very loosely based of the research I'd done I started to think of creating something that was a joke guide to wine, just to amuse my (very drunk) self.
