Feedback

 So I asked my peers about Feedback for my work so far and advice on how I can edit them to make them more successful. 



Feedback:

My main piece of Feedback was about making the work more cohesive together, that I need to solidify the Gonzo that I'm going with, the personality and what type of Character he is going to be. 
The painted piece I created seems to have been the most successful and gave off the most personality, especially with the background. However, the back didn't seem as cohesive to the design and far more generic, as if less thought had been put in when it came to designing the back.
The spacing between the text and Gonzo on the Instagram Story ad also needs to be something that I keep in mind, so that it doesn't become overly cluttered, especially as it will be seen on a phone screen, up close.


Improvements:

With the Souvenir, I am going to theme it more around that top painting. I will see what it looks like with just a similar background to the top with the art as is, however if I still don't think that looks quite right I shall probably keep the pose, but repaint the vector so it matches the same style as the top. Doing this I will defiantly need to think about how the QR code looks, possibly making it smaller, or changing Gonzo's pose so that the two seem to work together - which will also make it look better if someone doesn't get a photo and QR code, or if people grab a spare.
Once I've gotten the Souvenir down, I can really work on the style of the Advert and then the Billboard, which should come easily once I have a character idea for Gonzo and style down.

My view on Gonzo:
To make this all cohesive I need to solidify why this specific Gonzo is having a meet and greet, why is it taking place, and what is he like?
Gonzo in general tends to be a fun and kooky personality, revelling in their uniqueness and pride in the fact that they are a whatever.

Scamp Vs Final Design

Image
 Between creating three different scamp designs, the design has again changed as I have created the final design for the booklet. This is due to the fact that it does look slightly different as images and the final text is added, adding the lorem ipsum text to create the main text format is helpful, however isn't as accurate as the actual text being in there. This is due to different paragraph and word lengths, as well as force creating line breaks to add some slight interest into the text blocks themselves so they have more interest and don't just look like one solid block of text, which can turn a lot off people off and away from reading something. One of the biggest difference between this is seen in the page spread 2-3. This screenshot is taken from the third pass of the scamp, and even includes the text that is used in the final design of the booklet on the page on the left. The Ad takes up the page in that format with a place holder heading area and a very large QR code.

Final Designs

With each asset created for this I wanted them to be cohesive and all work well together, making the event unified and all fitting under one specific scheme and aesthetic to help it feel more professional. Final Business Card Design Final Front side of the souvenir  Mock up of back & Final Back I've included both the mock-up and final image to share with the client how their final product will look once the sticker is also stuck onto the back. Final Advert Design Final Instagram Advert This was created ready to go straight onto an Instagram story, which can then be shared to something like Facebook stories or Snapchat, all having the same format. Final Billboard Final Billboard [Printed] Created for a printed rather then digital billboard, it's saved as a high quality PDF with pre-prepared bleed on it.
