Packaging


I need to look at how i will package the booklet that goes with the prints and t-shirts, i like the style of these bags as they can be transparent and enable the consumer to take all the products away with them.

HMF! fonts that would ahve helped the development of my headline







shame i didn't find these designs earlier as they would have benefited my headline development.

however the idea of creating typefaces like this does interest me and i have developed a lot of different type faces for my headline brief and this could be something i dissect for my FMP.

Leaflet folds


For this brief i want to package my product as a collection of 3. a booklet/leaflet with information on the product/product in context/contact info/the possible prints available/other products e.g. T-shirts.

i wanted to see what available folding techniques i could use for my little booklet. i need to create some sample pieces to see what way would work best.

Teddy Bear


needed an image of a teddy bear for my headline brief to get and idea of colour and shape

Toy logo's

Dizzee Rascal album cover

I piked out this design when i saw the album advertised on a billboard. I really liked the simplicity of the design, but mostly the hand generated type that is really basic but when collaborated into this design and format works really well. i like how the colour pallet has been selected to refer to the specific parts of the body. the Tongue piece of type is really visually interesting as the U has been created out of the shape of the tongue. the colour pallet is really basic but it works really well the colour's are very complimentary kind of similar to pastel shades. I need to consider how I am going to colour my pieces but also know which colour's I don't need to use to limit my colour use down to approx 3 colour's.

Concept idea

My idea for this brief is to take the headline i found in The Sun newspaper:
"Dear James Bond and guvment...can i be a spy?"
From this headline i want to create a number of poster designs that reflect the idea of kids wanting to be spy's, and playing on a humorous approach that is spoken in the voice of the children that want to be spy's.
my idea is to play on the iconic gadgets and things that make James Bond, with this create a voice from the kids that they have gadgets to and things that would help them be a spy, NURF guns, Water pistols, walkie talkie's, disguises etc.

Headlines









This is a selection of headlines i found in weekend papers, The Sun and the Sunday Mail. i felt the headlines where really interesting and that they could offer me some very interesting visual material. i felt the strongest headline was the James Bond one, "Dear James Bond and Guvment...can i be a spy?" a quote from one of the many letters sent to the MI5 by young children. i thought that i could generate an interesting concept from this headline. and the material given within the article could offer some interesting material to work from, such as 005 1/2 and quotes from children's letters. i will need to look at these quotes and see what quotes could offer the most interesting visual material.



Chosen headline

Adverts: Type & Image

These are some pieces of work I've picked up or found in magazines, they have really stood out and found them very interesting and designs i want to learn more about.

Hellman's Mayo:

This was an advert taken from a news paper magazine, firstly i really like the good combination of the type and the imagery of the sandwich. the flow of the text follows the curve of the sandwich. also the type it self the main strap line "the dollop maketh the ham" the type is very similar to the main body set below the image, but it has been edited to look more illustrative and to help represent the shape of a dollop of mayo. i like this subtle touch as it makes the piece more interesting and aesthetically pleasing. also i need to consider colour, the use of colour in this piece represents the colour of things within the sandwich such as tomatoes and ham, the colours are good as they work well together and stands out well of a white background. i think if they had used white wouldn't have worked with the background also green wouldn't work as well with the red and pink colour, but overall i think the design works well and is very interesting to look at. think that the shape of the text is really interesting but it could have created a shape like a mouth licking lips, or the sandwich itself or even the Hellman's jar. but I'm not sure if it would be too much i don't know. however this is something i would like to test within my own work, looking at how the text could create shapes appropriate to the context.

Ben&Jerry's:



of the colours and the shapes that make up the design also i was These are a set of post cards i found at a Ben&Jerry's store. i was drawn to the designs because i was intrigued with how the type had been created and how it is appropriate the subject matter. the design represents the objects but in a fun cartoon/ illustrative way which to me is really interesting. also i think the use of colour benefits the look of the design of the "cream" postcard uses light colours the background colour reverses out the work cream and the information it is to give the reader, then the cow udder is a slight of shade tot he back ground which allows the word cream to stand out.
For the purpose of my design practice i am looking at interesting type and the word 'cream' has been created to represent visually the shape and form of actual cream which is interesting and really pleasing to look at. i also like the limited colours used in the actual main design total of 3 using the white card for the white. the cherry design is different as the text has been set to fit within a set shape which is the light hitting the cherry, this is very nice as the shape of the cherry stands out but the text is smaller, however i would try and do this the other way round using the type to create the actual cherry as i think this would have created a more interesting piece of imagery.

i want to incorporate so much into my design practice but using type and image is something i am going to pursue and work with and develop my technique to create some very interesting type and imagery work.




i like the simplistic layout of these designs and the type has been hand rendered or has been designed to look hand rendered which works really well as the design is trying to communicate the ethics of the product and i feel that this helps put this across to the reader and intended market. i like the use of colours appropriate to the subject matter something i need to make sure i do as my subject 'environment' is a big subject and i think to get the best impact i need to consider and use the right colours including paper stocks etc.

This design approaches type and illustration in a different way to the previous design however i feel that this is still a possible outcome of generating type and image together. the type faces seem more computer generated with the clean cut finishes and sharp lines. something i think i could replicate using illustrator and the pen tool. but i think the combination of the type faces as each type has been generated to represent the subject matter that it is describing which is obvious but some are shaped to look more attractive such as the word delicious as it's smooth lines don't directly define the word but still works a an interesting representation also 'crumbly' the text has been dissected and broken up to represent a piece of the food breaking up. i also think the design is clever like 'oaty topping' is on the top of all the other text also the text has been set in a rectangular format representing the snacks themselves. the use of colour is good as the directly symbolise the special K brand.
