Sketches

From the images I have taken around Wolverhampton, I have tried to sketch them. These photos show the work I have created.

These are just basic outline sketches.

Creating Thumbnails

Here a few rough sketches of thumbnails I have created for my editorial design.

Editorial Research

These are a few images of my research that I have done for my editorial folder. These are some magazines that I found and scanned. I then used tracing paper to describe the design and theme.

Posts

The newer posts that I will publish, is the work that I have produced throughout this first semester of Graphic Communication, Year 2.

Final Editorial Pages

So, I have finally done my editorial piece! It's not the best and it's not the worst either!

I have actually spent a lot of time of this, and I like the final outcome. I have tried to use a lot of ideas from research and my own knowledge of what it could look like.

...these are just a select few, of the double page spreads I have created.

Branding: My final logo and Maquettes

Below shows my final logo design. I will be using this for my Branding module.

Here are a few maquettes that I have designed, for research as part of the mailer I am creating for my Wolverhampton brand.

Microsites

Here are a few micro sites that I have researched, and like very much.

Logo Ideas

I have been producing some logo designs. Some of these are quick, random ideas, and some off these I have created with my topic and research in mind.

The final 3 designs are closer to my final design.

Logos

As part of the Branding in Context module, I have to rebrand the current logo of Wolverhampton.

Looking at current, old and new logos will hopefully help me what I need to create!

Editorial Research

Here are the things I have researched, to help me with my editorial spreads.

- most of these will be website links!

Images

To help with the topic of Unemployment, I have taken a few pictures around Wolverhampton.

These will hopefully be used in my final piece.

Editorial Design

Applied Editorial Design 5VC003

In Editorial, I have to choose a certain topic that explains the current situation in Wolverhampton. I have chosen "UNEMPLOYMENT".

What are we doing?

...I have been given a few modules that all interact with each other, around once singular topic.

"WOLVERHAMPTON". This is the city I live in, study, work...basically everything. I was born in a town, called Bilston, which is a connecting town with Wolverhampton. Being so used to the city, will help me gain a higher understanding on the revolving issues that it contains.

I have created a few spider diagrams around this subject.
