INITAL DESIGN IDEAS // MESSAGE AND DELIVERY - VISUAL COMMUNICATION

HERE ARE SOME INITAL DESIGNS I CAME UP WITH FROM MY DESIGN SHEETS. ALTHOUGH THE IDEAS ARE THERE - I FOUND IT VERY HARD TO COME UP WITH DIFF, VARIATIONS TO HELP PORTAY MY IMAGES. THE USE OF EXTREMELY SIMPLE ALMOST PICTOGRAMS AND BASIC SHAPES GAVE ME THE INSPIRATION TO DEVELOP THEM FUTHER. EG. THE ABOVE IMAGES STARTING FROM THE TOP HELP TO GIVE ME SOME PERSPECTIVE. THE RESEARCH I DID WAS GOOD FOR GETTING TO GRIPS WITH THE OCCUPATION - TOOLS OF TEH TRADE- WORKING HOURS - ETC. ONCE I GOT THESE IDEAS I FEEL THAT THE DESIGNS COULD START TO GET UNDERWAY. THE USE OF HAVING THESE IDEA IS OK FOR THE DESIGNS.

I FEEL THE IMAGE WITH THE HOUSE ON (FIRST IMAGE) IS THE STRONGEST DESIGN. THE USE OF THE ROLLER AND HOUSE MAKES THE DESIGNS FEEL BOLD AND STRAIGHT TO THE POINT - WHITH THE RIGHT COLOURS I THINK IT COULD LOOK EFFECTIVE I PORTAGING THESE IDEAS. 

THE PAINT BRUSH IDEAS I ALSO FEEL WORK WELL. NEGATIVE SPACE PLAYS A MASSIVE PART IN THESE DESIGNS AS IT CREATES A SIMPLER IMAGE AND AS A WHOLE IT IS NOT BOMBARDED WITH EXSESS INFORMATION. THE PAINT BUCKET DIAGRAM HOWEVER I FEEL IS HORRIBLE. THE USE OF THE BUCKET COULD HAVE BEEN A GOOD IDEA BUT WHEN TYPO IS INTRODUCED I FEEL IT TAKES AWAY FORM THE SIMPLICITY AND ADDS TOO MUCH TO THE IMAGE.
