One day project.

This was a little add on project for one day to give us some extra work experience as you are doing it for a real life client. Just that it is within the college itself. The project was to create artwork to go down in main site to show what the ideal student would be like walking through the doors starting for the first time. So the point of the project was to ideally motivative and inspire people to do well, not patronise them which you have to be careful of. Which i intended to stay well clear of! Because people don't react as well to being told what to do.

For this project then there was no paramiters set by the client and we were free to do what we want, which is good from a design point of view because it gives you a chance to do something interesting. So to start off the glass got into a group and thought of all the subjects that they did at college. E.g Maths, english, p.e, drama and so on and so forth. After this we then put them on pieces of paper and picked them out of a hat to decided who would have which subject. I ended up with Travel and tourism which initial i thought would be quite hard, but after i spent half an hour brain storming and looking at other examples of graphic design work to inspire me. I managed to think of quite a few ideas of what i could do to hopefully inspire somebody. Because with traveling there are loads of quotes out there to inspire people to travel the word, which is what i decided to base it from.

I decided to do my design as plane in which i made a silhouette on photoshop and added inspirational words and phrase to resemble the windows and contour lines. I felt this was really strong as it meant it was bold and eye catching. But served a purpose as i could hide lots of writing in it, but without it having really obvious long boring sentences. So the writing on the page would appear to be very minimal. This gives the poster more of a visual impact and helps to make the poster have more impact as it isn't shouting to the reader! I also think it gives a more interesting view to the page.

these are the variation of designs I did

However  this is the design that i ran with as i felt it was just that little bit more of a less obvious choice to go with having the word fly. In very small letters to almost create a unusual perspective with the plane!
