Timeline Task- Context

We were given the task of producing a timeline by Jane, to reflect a decade that she had selected for each of us at random. This decade would then be put in a timeline and presented to the Context group. My decade:

1980-1989

I first of all looked at the relevant historic moments in this decade to do with animation and Motion Design, but then I further established other cultural and political influences that there would have been within the timeline. Such politics included the ruling of Margaret Thatcher and the miner strikes that were the most poignant event of the era.
