Pop in, pop out!

The pop up idea came from thinking of ways we could tell the narratives of the objects in a more interesting and interactive way than is usually done. From research we did most of the museums and galleries in Manchester used very traditional style leaflets and flyers as promotion. Platt Hall isn't a typical traditional gallery, so we didn't want to go with that. It needed to be something that really helped show the Hall's personality through the look and feel of the promotional material as well as the narratives of the objects. We thought the narratives of the objects were an interesting angle to look at as it gives an 'identity' to items we wouldn't otherwise know about. Also as the stories are so interesting they can be used as an 'awareness' device or tool.
