Studio Brief 02 - Licence to Print Money Critique Feedback

During this critique group we observed and gave feedback to each others 'Licence to Print Money' design ideas, contextual research and methods of experimenting. 

Here is feedback that I got off my peers:
  • Lots of my Peers like the Casino/Gambling theme of currency idea. They told me to look into more/research of the Casino colours e.g - Chips colours, table, flooring, interior and decorative aspects with in a Casino. 
  • Some told me to try and expand on the idea because it is good for a universal audience and it is Casino chips etc is very universal/international currency. 
  • One liked the idea of the British pound one with the season theme, especially how it creates and image if you combine the notes together. 
  • The replacement of the Queen would be the British Royal Family Arms (Lion and Unicorn) either could be behind or at the front of the note. 
  • With the Season theme they liked how four different season can represent a four different notes (£5, £10, £20 and £50). 
  • As there is four different seasons and notes, I could experiment with different paper stock and find a suitable material texture which portrays them and expand with that. 
  • For the Casino one instead of making the money currency a note form, make it into an actually card (playing cards) form instead to be a bit different and unique.

Type in Context - Final Indesign Layout

After the trial and error of printing the pages with my first intial scrapbook concept. I decide to change the layout of my  pages as the first layout was difficult to work with when adding text.   Instead I did a layout like this (images are below) the text and photographs are in more of a consistent and organised scale. My peers gave me advice on what text to put within my publication pages, they said facts and figures will be interesting as it will relate to the photographs. Because of adding more photographs/text to the pages of the publication, I therefore had to add more pages. So in the end, there was about 30 pages in my publication. Overall, the images on the Indesign preview look decent and I will print this out within the Digital Print room’s paper stock. 

Studio Brief 01 - Secret 7: Final Design

In this design board, I have chosen this Record Sleeve design cover to be my final  submission for the live brief - Secret 7. I particular favoured this design as it really  portrayed the artists song and style well as the variety of the different shades of blue tones gave a good theme for the overall concept of the chosen lyric that I selected. “You were the perfect star. Again describing the meaning of the design will be yet again explained here. The symbolism  of the star is similar to a heart of the person who is going through a heart break thus this  is similar feeling when the break bit is being cracked like glass. The glass look makes it  highlight that the person’s heart is very sensitive and weak and the colours of the different  shades/tones of blue express their unhappiness and also how innocent and pure they are. The way the star outline repeats depicts how the person is slowing forgetting the perfect star  which has broken the heart...

Studio Brief 01 - How Do You Read? - Second Development

In this blog, I have finish printing out the physical  small publication book of Design Principles. I believe this second  development work was successful as the colours of the type has  been nicely and evenly printed out.The information on the  pages are arranged properly in the right order as to the the one  on the Macbook. However, I need to chose a different type of paper  stock which is much sturdier, e.g - card stock. As when I put the rubber band around the spine of the book it curls. Even though the  visuals of the book is very minimalistic and simple I believe this is  appropriate to the audience who would read this kind of book context.  Especially, for young students who want to learn the right knowledge  and information of design principles, whilst becoming a Graphic Designer. For the colour scheme I went for a very neutral yet colourful scheme,  as these colours only outline the significant factors of Design...
