What to put it presentation:
Branding
Promo Pack
Briefs I enjoyed!
Least proud moment.
What I have learnt?
What I haven't enjoyed!
What I want to do over summer?
What I want to do in level 6?
Who do I want to contact?
What do I want to get out of PPP?
These are points that John told us to cover & I have added in other aspects that I thought was important about my development within my year.
Here is my Presentation.....
Here are my notes that I put under each slide to make sure that I didn't lose what I was going to say as this is major downfall of mine when under pressure. I forget words and then this becomes difficult to pick myself back up again.
Slide 1:
So
Here is my branding logo….
Slide 2:
I
decided to use a hand rendered initial M,
as I am just going to name my practice Melissa Gater Graphic Designer &
Illustrator. I chose the colour teal as I see the colour to have a very calm
& collective representation, in which I think is a good representation for
the way I work. When I researched into this also, the theory behind the colour
is also that it is suppose to build confidence when people look at it.
Therefore this will reflect on to my clients that they can
trust me with their work.
Slide 3:
For
my promo pack I didn’t just want to have a plain
old CV, I wanted something different! So I decided to create something to hold
my other aspects of my branding. So therefore this will be included in my promo
pack when I give it out to studios. It’s a wrap fold with a pocket in the middle
which will hold a mini portfolio & also a set of postcards that represent
the different ways I work.
Slide 4:
Design
For Web & Print: This was a good
brief, I enjoyed the whole branding process. With the ability to do packaging
also.
Wedding Invites: This was for the
responsive module, my friends sister is getting married next year and therefore
asked me to design their save the date and the invitations. As you can tell by
the style they are getting married in a barn & wanted something with a WOW
factor to set the scene for the big day!
Design For Print: This was
something that really brought me out of my comfort zone & made me test
things I wouldn’t do normally & I thoroughly enjoyed it! I liked my concept
of a look book of finishes with separate individual books on how to… So people
could just admire the finishes if they already knew about the process.
Focused mainly on Product &
Packaging, & branding & identity this is something I have found a new found love for.
Slide 5:
The reason why I think that this was my
least proud moment, is because I had such high expectations & I thought
that I would be able to make it look somewhat like a website. When in actual
fact it ended up having to be very basic and a few elements that I was proud of
because I found out the coding myself.
Slide 6:
Basic
Coding
Branding (Fully-Brand Guidelines)
Working Professionally with clients
– working for others rather than for my self!
The basics of how to start-up a
company!
Collaborating
Competition briefs
Slide 7:
I
want to get my promo pack sent out to studios.
Make a website & make it live. I think I
am going to need a long time for this and total devotion and therefore this
will be a good time to do this.
Find placements.
Visit Studios
Sleep!
Have Fun! (Summertime Ball, Shrek the musical,
Wicked the musical)
Go on Holiday!
Slide 8:
I
want to use my crafting skills either through type
or 3D objects. This is something I explored on ED and thoroughly enjoyed it but
never got chance to do it on this course as it was hard to fit within modules.
Using stock to enhance design, I
use coloured
stock with black in or use it when screen printing but never use full colour
laser print on coloured stock & this is something I would
like to take advantage of as I have seen some nice work using this technique.
Augmented Design? Although, I
didn’t like coding – but it looks cool!
Slide 9:
The
chance/ability of setting up a studio – never
thought I would set up a studio in a million years but it has made me think
when we was doing that brief of why not? And never say never!
Learn from others experiences! You
never make the same mistake twice.
Slide 10:
This
is a new chapter within the book & it doesn’t
seem like two minutes ago since we were sat in this room saying well it’s the
start of your second year! You told us it was going to fly by but we thought
NOOOO! So that’s the
push, to make sure we start as we mean to go on! At the start of second year I
don’t think I was ready & we didn’t have an actual set brief for a while
& I took that as a chance to sit
back & relax but now I realise that it was such a wrong decision!!!
I felt the presentation went well, I was very nervous at the beginning but I calmed down towards the end. I am happy with the amount that I remembered as I didn't use the points too much and therefore my presentation skills where better.
I felt as though I got the most important point out and therefore I was happy because normally when I sit down I normally think i should have said this and this. But this time I was happy with my performance.
