- Pick a specific discipline within graphic design.
- Keep the question open ended so it can be explored and expanded.
- Allow for suitable theoretical research as well as visual exploration - needs to be able to apply to both.
- Position research with a contemporary graphic design practice - make it work for me, focus on the present day.
- Do some quick preliminary research - current literature, happening in the industry.
- Consider what primary research methods could be used to support your research - think carefully about questions that need to be asked and make sure they are professional.
The influence of gender equality within mainstream journalism.
- Creating a gender neutral publication/platform that doesn't sway towards either gender.
- Looking into mainstream journalism and the way in which each gender is perceived or targeted. Look at magazines that are aimed at girls and ones that are aimed at boys and discuss why each gender can't be interested in both. Brand a fashion magazine?
- Research into graphic designers/design that has tried to do this before?
- Look at influential brands who have taken a gender neutral scope. (John Lewis)
- Conduct questions to discover what gender neutral means to the general public.
- Create a zine based filled with images of gender neutral clothing. You can wear whatever you want, fashion should have no gender.
