Studio Brief 02 - Licence to Print Money: Digital Colour experiment

In this blog, I have put my final designs of the Illustrator sketches on Photoshop and now practicing with different colours to see if I can visually match the colour scheme of the theme Banknotes that I will do.

For the nature banknote theme, I tried to see what it visually looked like if I experimented with pastel colours. I believe this is suitable as nature is a very soft and bright tones.
Hopefully when I try to test this on the screen printing part that it will print nicely, as the paper that I transfer the image on is different textures to represent the different seasons.

For the precious metals banknote theme, I tried to see using metallic colours on a black background would be suitable to choice of a good colour scheme. This is a similar choice of colouring technique that I will do for the Gambling colour themed. Instead it will be in a card shape style and size for like casino. The colours that I will be experimenting with is
gold, silver, bronze and platinum.

Overall, all of them look good in the colour scheme that I had chosen for them. The main thing is to test these out on the actual paper when traditionally screen printing them as physical prints.

OUGD603 | Extended Practice | Brief 03 | Development - Publication Layout design - Leah | BBC (Our Generation) - Life being British Born Chinese

Publication Layout - Leah For the inside of the 'Our Generation' publication, the collaborator Leah was in charge of this brief's outcome segment. The publication's layout was constructed with 'Adobe Indesign' Leah made guide lines and measurements to help assist where the Photographs and the text should be placed. Illustrations of a paint brush stroke was experimented to give the pages more characteristics. We mutually agreed to make the size of the publication A5 format, and the number of pages are 16. Previously it was going to be 17, however one participant was unable to provided us with their childhood photo for us. Due to this situation Leah had to be more selective with the photos and information (Quotes) that we believe was significant for outlining our briefs context. Below are some images of this layout format: Participant page order by names: Katie Sung Leah Chen Jackie Wan Tracey Lau Eliza Mo Kylie Lee Lewis Capper...

Study Task 08 - Typesetting

In this session, we had to look into the re-typeset of Lewis Carroll's - A Mouses Tale using a postmodern approach and a modernist approach. Lewis Carroll's - A Mouses Tale Original The Mouse's Tale by Lewis Carroll "Mine is a long and a sad tale!" said the Mouse, turning to Alice, and sighing. "It is a long tail, certainly," said Alice, looking down with wonder at the Mouse's tail; "but why do you call it sad?" And she kept on puzzling about it while the Mouse was speaking, so that her idea of the tale was something like this:— Fury said to a mouse, That he met in the house, “Let us both go to law: I will prosecute you.” Come, I'll take no denial, We must have a trial, For really this morning I've nothing to do. Said the mouse to the cur, “Such a trial, dear sir, With no jury or judge, would be wasting our breath.” “I’ll be judge, I'll be jury”Said cunning old Fury; “I’ll try the...

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...
