Studio Brief 03 - Collaboration Branding: Overall Evaluation

In conclusion, I believe that we as a team were very good at sharing, passing on designs and giving tips to one another. We were quite easy as a group to listen to everyone ideas of the concept we are wanted to produce,

But personally, I felt quite bad and guilty as I fallen ill during the time we were trying to finalise our designs and presenting our presentation. I could only help via the internet giving my opinions and sharing ideas on how to improve the designs we produced as a collaboration team. But after all the hard work, my group was able to produce great designs and an amazing concept idea which bring all of our work together quite nicely.

I would personally like to say during my experience of this brief, that I worked with very good peers of my course. They were very understanding about my situation and work very hard for this work to be produced as we planned before we went on our Easter break.
It would be worth checking these peers out on their blogs: Calum, Sam, Sophie, Aneta and Harrison. If I was put in this group again, next time I would work as twice as hard as I believe that having one of their team fallen ill added more work for them.

I did really enjoy this brief as I was able to learn from my other members of my group their thinking and style of work that they produced. And will further inspire and influence the way I will try to improve my way of working in more collaboration briefs further in the future.

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...

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...

Objectivity - Subjectivity

Evaluation: Overall, my final evaluation including looking at my peers/year tutors feedback of my logotype. Has shown that I needed to do more research into my colours, as I tried to stick with the original colours of the current logo of Krispy Kreme. As my last critique group told me to stick with them without changing it. Some liked and disliked the outline of the typography as some say it looked like icing, whilst others said it would be better if it were fuller so it makes more of an impact. Most of the comment was about the bad colour choices of the Green as it has connotations of an industrial, chemical and unhealthy look. But some said it could have connotations of high sugar as for a donut. Everyone recognised the doughnut shape for the logo, some saw the neon letter as an American diner look as my critique group told me to stay with the retro look. One of my others peers comment, that the use of the contrast between the Sans Serifs and Serif typography is appropriate to d...
