Studio Brief 02 | Product, Range and Distribution Brief | Breastfeeding Controversy - Final Feedback & Prints

Final feedback

Prefer the red, blue and green carton toned down so the pink carton is more visual.
The stickers of the pink cartons which has a pink ring around it has positive remarks.
When applying the facts onto the poster was not aesthetically appealing as it made the poster overcrowded.
Create a brief based on breastfeeding in public.
There was a bit of a challenge for me to choose between which poster should be part of my final submission. So in the end, I decide to submit a series of poster designs.
A leaflet might be appropriate to accommodate to the work I am currently producing.

Final prints
When printing my final products I decide to print out on the stain/glossy paper for the four final posters and for the stickers in a matte material.

I originally asked for my stickers to be printed out in A4. However, it came out in an A3 size at first I was going to ask to reprint the stickers due to the incorrect sizing. Nevertheless the A3 size looked a lot better as the writing is more visual. If I printed in A4 the chosen typeface that I choose is quite a difficult typeface to read. Therefore I am happy with the results of the stickers.

With the stickers as I made them on Photoshop. I could not use the vinyl machines to precisely cut them out in circular shape. So therefore I had to hand cut them out individually with a craft knife.

The posters prints came out very well. The colours were consistent like it was displayed on the screen, the glossy finish established the authority and importance of the posters message. The only part which I could not decide was to either to keep the white border around the poster or to cut it off.

In the end, I took one of the borders off one of the mock up ones. It did look a lot better without it. So I decided with taking off all the white borders edges off the final posters.

Below are the finishing results:

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...
