Type in Context - Final Design of Publication

In conclusion, the publication results was produced well. There were only minor trials and errors during the, design production when laying out the pages in Indesign, printing the pages without any missing pages or images being cut off, redesigning the layout due to a change of context/concept and using the pyrography pen was challenging.

However, I was able to surpass these obstacle and fix them quite swiftly. Overall, the physical produce looks very professional, I am happy with the results if the quality of the pages as the colours came out well, text is clear and understandable to read and the hard cover is simple yet attractive enough for the target audience that it was set to.

The commerical production time of this publication took quite some time as to get a good and rounded concept/context. But the actaul production of making the publication was relatively in a good pace and more likely to be much quicker. As my time took a little bit longer due to waiting for the pryography equipment to arrive, then practice with it and waiting for the A4 wood sheets to arrive.

Nevertheless, I am very happy with the results of my publication. The finish product was what I was expecting it to be, I could of made it more professional if I had more excess to other equipment which might of made my commercial production slightly quicker.

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...

Ideas for Type in Context Publication

IDEAS In this blog post, I have found some examples on how I would like to layout my Type in Context Publication. As my target audience is aimed at people who like hikers and historians. This type of publication will inform the readers how our way finding signages have stayed the same rural design. For the amount of text I want within my publication, the direction of where this publication is going will only be a minimum amount of text. This maybe only just an introduction page and possibly a content page. The publication will either be a rural guide book or a coffee book for cafe where tourist/hikers/cyclist and so on, stop to have a break for some refreshments. The target audience of this specific type of publication will be at a demographic (geographical). To create this type of publication, I will use Indesign to help me arrange and layout my pictures. This will then be easier for me to print it out professionally. The siz...

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...
