The Wimborne Town Crier - Self Directed Project

A very warm hello to my friends, followers and blog observers...This blog is to record, showcase, and share my work and learning processes throughout my 'Self Directed Project'. For this project I have been asked by Chris Brown the Wimborne Town Crier if I can realise an 18th Century design which will become his new crying costume as of June 2010. I will be sharing all my triumphs and challenges a long the way and self reflecting/evaluating as I go. Please view my attached learning agreement for more information on the project and what it is I aspire to achieve.

Chris Brown in Action

I'm posting a link that gives an insight into how versatile Chris Brown's town crying career is. Knowing the sort of "gigs" he cries for allows me to be a bit more adventurous with creating Chris's costume as I really want it to make a statement and reflect Chris's personality.

The images provided on the link above really show how much of a contribution the costume gives to the event and Chris's role as town crier.
