Studio Brief 01 - How Do You Read? - Digital work

In this blog, highlights my initial sketches being transfer and created on a format called Photoshop. Here I am doing another rough design template. To determine if the layout of this first small publication layout is suitable size for both information and illustrations. 
Which portrays the main factors of Design Principles that I would like the reader to know. 

 There are 13 pages including the cover for this book template. Which at first did not look like enough pages to contain both design principles information and drawings. However, this is the complicated part of the size of the circles that will hold it. And how many circles that I will create for the information and illustrations to be in the small publication.

 At first it looks visually good, as well as the illustrations that I drawn on to visually explain to the reader the key points of design principles. However, it is not enough space of room that I can fit my information that I have collected to put in this small publication of mine. If I expand more of the circles in numbers. The small publication will become to bulky due to 
the type of card paper that I am using for my small publication.

 Overall, I will have to discard the circle theme idea for my publication. As it does not work very well and I will have to consider a different approach for the layout of my small publication.

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...
