Licence to Print Money Exhibition

For the independent research, I looked at themes such as:

• Piggy bank theme where the exhibition is about saving money
• The whole idea of 'money grows on trees' 
• Slang terminology of what money means in different languages as it will have all sorts of currencies at the exhibition
• Price tags. How everything costs money

The idea that I liked the most was the Wall Street theme. This is because the stock market is where people all around the world invest in trade with their money and would have to be quite wealthy in doing so. Therefore, it accepts all types of currencies from around the world. Live stocks and shares could possibly be projected onto the wall at the exhibition to make it seem more realistic. Film quotes from movies such as 'The Wolf of Wall Street' could also be on there since it is relevant to the Wall Street theme. The two American flags that hand outside of Wall Street could possibly be re-created in the exhibition so it gives a sense of being in New York.

Other ideas we collectively thought about for the Wall Street theme as part of a group:

• Northern Wall Street - Northern slang terms 
• Stock projected live
• Stock graph 
• Flags
• Film quotes - vinyl stickers
• Ask studios to create their own bank note for the exhibition 
• Projectors/screens
• Booklet handout - cheque shaped booklet
• Clips from films (muted)
• Time laps of people creating their banknote designs 
• Digital style typeface - BP dots
• Helvetica for body of type
• Possible colours: red, green, orange and black
• Wall Street journal font
• Light box as the 'wow factor' in the room
• Map of Bank House on the leaflet
