Practical Ideas - OUGD501

Redesign female superheroes
Rebrand existing heroes
Create a brand new hero

Originally the idea was to redesign costumes for already existing female superheroes to make them less provocative and sexualised. After speaking with a tutor it was thought that this would be too heavily illustration based. The tutor suggested rebranding already existing heroes but it would not fit the theme of the essay so instead the two ideas could be incorporated by creating the identity of a brand new hero. If the hero was designed from scratch entirely new guidelines would need to be created this would also mean creating a costume for a character as it is part of their identity.
