Colour Schemes & Origami Patterns
Below are the images of the Origami illustration with the colour schemes. 


Origami Cranes





Origami Stars




Feedback
  • The lighter pastel colours definitely stand out more, it's softer for the eyes.
  • The vivid bright colours can be a quite harsh to the eyes.
  • Like the shape of the origami Cranes and Stars. The three dimensional shape gives them more dimension maybe try and add darker shades to define the three dimensional look you're going for. 
  • The sunset colour scheme is nice for the cranes. 
  • All designs look great could imagine them use for wrapping paper! 
  • Maybe try and outline the vectors to a different colour. For example for the darker colours you added a white outline so it defines the three dimensional shape? 
  • Like how it's paper theme and colours relating to the name of the competition 'Papergang'. 
  • If you didn't tell me the concept/background of the designs I wouldn't of known that the stars are also origami. They look like 3D stars illustrative. 
  • Like how minimalistic and simple the design is, could be used for a lot of stationary products. 
  • Pastel colour scheme reminds me an unicorn concept.  
  • Maybe add a background shape to the design. Looks a bit plain and isolated.
By taking the feedback to consideration as to choosing which design to upload to the competition. There was a tie between both the origami Cranes and Stars vector as they were both equally popular. Whilst the colour scheme the lighter and pastel was more appealing to the eye. I will experiment with the more pastel colour theme and add a background shape to make the design look slightly busy.

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...

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...
