OUGD603 | Extended Practice | Brief 06 | Research | YCN Student Awards 2017/18 - KFC Bucket Design

Ideas
To create a design for the KFC bucket to contemporise it, and raise it to iconic status, the plan is to begin by looking at existing and previous designs of the bucket. One potential idea is to design four buckets that will be seasonal and celebratory. For example, as celebrations for Halloween are more popular today, a design for this will be created which will depict pumpkins, cobwebs, brooms, a witch’s cauldron (with chicken pieces flying out). The background will be orange, but will contrast sufficiently with the pumpkins. A Christmas design will show a Christmas tree with friends sitting around, eating KFC this is inspired by The Japanese and how they celebrate Christmas these include fried chicken and a birthday cake. The Easter design will be illustrated with eggs and chicken similar to an easter hunt, inside the egg will be fried chicken than chocolate. For the spring season there will be a picnic design suitable when the flowers come out KFC will be used to celebrate for a new start. Whilst the Summer season will be exemplify of holidays which objects such as BBQ setting instead the illustrated people are eating KFC. 

Examples of Buckets that have celebrate illustrations which will have inspire my bucket design:

Secondary Ideas
Another potential idea is to design two limited buckets that will be celebrating KFC in general and the success of the brand. For example, inspired by the olympics themed packaging designs. For example Coke a cola and MacDonald Olympic themed packaging,  these are usually design in a colour vector of silhouette of people in movement or a stick figure. The colour scheme represent the olympic rings colours (red, yellow, green, blue and black). This multi coloured concept can be used to represent people in society as like the mascots in the olympics.

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...

Sticker development design For the sticker/title design for the publication the polaroid shape was taken as inspiration. The idea for the polaroid designs were that the audience and participants can sign their signature on the stickers to make the publication more personal. Below are some design examples:  Feedback Majority of the feedback from peers and tutors all preferred the design of brand, title and sticker designs were they bottom right design with and without the outline.

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...
