Design for Screen - Evaluation

To evaluate my Design in Screen, I believe I did very well for a beginner of this type of brief. Even though at the beginning and the mid point of putting the animation together was the hardest yet challenging part of the design process. 

The decision of choosing between the inflight entertainment personal television or inflight entertainment app idea was quite tough to choose between. The reasoning for this was because, there was a tie vote between the two ideas and I was happy to any of them. But in the end, with the help of some peers and tutors, they advised me to do the app idea. They said that most inflight entertainment systems on the plane are quite advanced and up to date. But having an app, which allows the user to pre look and book what the passenger wants on the inflight television is more interesting and convenient. Therefore, with this idea I research more on app design and the previous research that I collected was more to the personal television. 

Originally, I was going to create this app for an existing Airline. However, I made a challenge for myself and created my own Airline Company. This is more designing to do, especially when I need to make a logo, find a typeface and create a colour scheme for the my Airline Company. This did not take as long as I expected, the only part of this that took time was deciding on the logo and colour scheme. In the end, the design of my Airline Company came out well. I am very please with this part of the design. 

When starting on the animation part of the brief. In the brief it informed that one of the deliverables was to produce an after effects prototype for our user interface design. Therefore my prototype will be demonstrating how the app with function by using a stop motion animation program. This was the most difficult part of the brief, as a beginner of after effects program this part was the challenging. I wanted my animation to look quite professional, as my design for the app is aesthetically professional appearance. In University, we only got taught the basics of moving shapes across the composition. However, I wanted to do some more advance animation movements for my app. Therefore, the online video tutorials helped tremendously but this took most of my time when learning and producing at the same time. In addition, it was difficult adding sound to the sections I want it to be in the animation. 

In conclusion, the best part of the brief was definitely the design process of the app creation. As well as I was able to overcome these problems and was able to finish the final product for the brief. If I have more practice with after effects, I might do these animation in future briefs. Especially, for using the program to demonstrate how the final product can be used. For example: demonstrations instead of PowerPoint slide show.

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...
