No news is good news envelope.

I found this project quite hard. This is because I wanted to think of a solid idea that would subtlety  make people think about drink driving. I want the audience to have a  think about driving home while their drinking their pint down at the pub. I feel I have achieved this however there are a few areas I would like to improve on. For starters  I need to follow the brief more closely color wise and by the end my envelope seemed to have become a tad smaller than the original net.
   Overall I am really chuffed with the final products ad I feel the addresses I have included in my mail list are relevant  to the envelopes main goal-to raise awareness of drink driving.

I'm not to happy about my final posters. I feel that they are very simple, I like the idea behind them and I think they are effective as a series. However I feel  as though I could have put more effort into portraying the message. 
   I liked the initial ideas but found whenever I looked at them the felt like three separateimages rather than one. I think I took the easy route, I should have and would like to develope the sketches. However i think the idea behind the series is eye catching and straight to the point  and therefore answers the brief.

At first I was not looking forward to this brief but after experimenting and getting used to illustrator I found that vectoring wasn't  as hard as I thought it would be and I started to enjoy it.  I surprising myself with how many different ideas I was coming up with. I feel that this brief was very helpful in helping me progress using illustrator.

Alphabet Soup Part 2.

I really like the alphabet I've produced for Chris and from his reaction and feed back he seems to really like it as well. If I was to change or develop anything I would pick the style I have chosen  for the letter 'E' and apply that drippy, messiness to all 26 letters of the alphabet. But on the whole I am pleased with the final outcome and I feel it represents Chris well.

I really enjoyed  this project and felt that I answered the brief well. If I was to add to this I would print the examples out rather than cutting and sticking however it is still very effective and Im happy with the final result.

How to...? Evaluation
















As a group we all chipped in and applied ourselves well, we all took responsibility for one flyer each so everyone had something talk to about. We were all confident with the idea and 
everyone produced a flyer that fit in as a set of 5. Coming up with ideas amongst ourselves wasn't hard and fortunately there were no negative parts to this project. I'm happy with where we left it. I don't think doing anything differently would have helped, however we could develop on from this by applying the designs to other paper types and sizes. Also we could get t-shirts with the type screen printed onto them and wear them while distributing the flyers.
