-DESIGN EXPERIMENTS - PROVERBALLY YOURS- VISUAL COMMUNICATION

EXPERIMENTS

I CREATED THIS DESIGN IN MY INTIAL IDEAS. I QUITE IKED THE LINK BETWEEN TEXT AND IMAGE BUT HAVING IT ALL ILLUSTRATED WORKS WELL AS AN IMAGE. THE USE OF SIMPLISTIC SYMBOLS COULD WORK IN A REPETITIVE PATTER TO PORTRAY THE PROVERB. I FEEL THE USE OF COLOUR WORKS WELL. THE BACKGROUND COLOUR WOULD HAVE TO BE SLIGHTLY SHADED YELLOW BUT I FEEL THE COLOURS WORK WELL HAVING BLACK/BADGE.YELLOW/ LOOKS QUITE EFFECTIVE. 

ILLUSTRATIONS FROM THE INITIAL IDEAS SECTION. THE USE OF ADDING COLOUR ON PHOTOSHOP WORKS WELL. THE DEISGSN ARE SIMPLISTIC AND I FEEL THAT THEY WOULDNT BE AS STRONG AS THE ABOVE IMAGE. 

ONE OF THE FIRST EXPERIMENTS CREATED ON PHOTOSHOP. I USED AN IMAGE FROM MY INITIAL IDEAS SECTION AND STARTED TO CREATE A SIMPLE DESIGN. THE USE OF USEING BLACK SHAPES I THINK GIVES A DIMENSIONAL IMAPCT AND ALLOWS THE IMAGE TO LOOK STRONG. 

INITIAL IDEAS:

DESIGN SHEETS:

HERE WAS MY FIRST SET OF DESIGNS I CREATED. I USED THE INTERNET TO SEE WHAT THE PROVERB I HAD BEEN GIVEN. THE USE OF CREATING IMAGES LIKE A BRAIN/FACES/CHECKS/STAMPS ETC IS USEFUL AS THEY ALL SOMEHOW RELATE TO THE PROVERB. I FEEL THE USE OF LAYOUT AND STRUCTURE OF THE TYPE LOOKS QUITE EFFECTIVE. FOR EXAMPLE THE 2ND IMAGE ON THE TOP ROW LOOKS QUITE EFFECTIVE AND VISUALLY INTERESTING.

THE WHOLE CONCEPT OF MY PROVERB RELATES TO GAINING TRUST AND THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DOING A TASK AND GETTING PRAISE. THE USE OF SYMBOLS SUCH AS ARROWS AND CHECKS AND COMPASS AND CLOCKS ETC ALL LOOKS QUITE EFFECTIVE.

I QUITE LIKE THE 2ND IMAGE ON THE BOTTOM ROW OF THIS DESIGN SHEET. THE USE OF IMAGE IN BOXES AND THE SYMBOLS BELOW I THIN KIS EFFECTIVE. I KNOW THE DESIGN COULD BE IMPROVED MORE BUT THE IDEA I THINK COULD WORK WELL TO GET THE PROVERB ACROSS.

OVERALL I FEEL THE DESIGN SHEETS GENERATED SOME GOOD IDEAS FOR ME TO USE. THE USE OF INDIVIDUAL SYMBOLS IMAGES AND LAYOUT OF TEXT I FEEL IS GOOD IS CREATING THE PROVERB. I FEEL THE 50 DESIGNS WE CREATED DO ENHANCE MY IDEAS. BREAKING THE PROVERB DOWN INTO DIFFERENT SECTIONS COULD ASLO WORK AND THE EDITION OF SYMBOLS I FEEL DOES THE JO WELL. EASY AND SIMPLE TO LOOK AT THE USE OF SYMBOLS ALSO TRANSLATES MY MESSAGE IN A CLEAR WAY.
