EXTERNAL PROJECT

In Uni I handed in a batch of projects in this book. Here is the post I did a few months back showing this, click HERE to see it. I made this book by printing out the pages in order and then binding it together, I think it was the first book I ever made whilst including my work on it. Enjoy!

CARDIFF BAY ONLINE BROCHURE

Open publication - Free publishing - More cardiff

I decided to put all the pages from my Cardiff Bay book together on an online publication. Click HERE to see the final outcome in print form. I did one in Welsh, will probably do a Welsh version of the online publication in the coming days! Hope you enjoy.

CARDIFF BAY LOGO AND POSTERS

LOGO

Not sure if I posted a single example of the Cardiff Bay logo I designed. I quite like this logo, the fonts used are code light and code bold  with a bright blue background. A lot of people who seen this logo have mistaken it for the real Cardiff Bay logo which is always a good thing! 

I really liked the blue circle so used it as part of my own blog with GARUFF being placed in a blue circle, just like The Bay logo. 

POSTERS

The posters were done in about 20 minutes on last day of hand in. Im not going to lie, these were rushed but I quite like these. Part of this campaign was to get people who visit the Bay to take photos of themselves doing a range of activities whilst visiting that part of the city. The campaign then encourages the photo-snappers to upload their pics to Cardiff Bay's Facebook page for the chance of it being used as part of The Bay's campaign. 

The logo is used and edited with activities such as 'Sightseeing' and 'Shop' so the logo becomes more familiar and recognisable to tourists! 

MINI BUS

For this project we have to design the sides of a minibus for teenagers. I didn't want to go with the traditional graffiti look as they are teenagers, so I wanted a fresh, different look. The dots creating a pattern I really like. Its fresh and trendy which is what I wanted. A few years ago I seen the dots used and I think it was easyjet that did the dots pattern and slowly faded it off into a white space. I really liked it whatever it was and wanted to give it my own twist.

Allow me to point out that it's not finished just yet. I've still got to mess around with colours, positioning and layering before I can say its my final piece but this is what I've been doing recently. 

P.S. Like I said before in a previous post, saving this as a JPEG and uploading it on here doesn't give it the crisp quality that it does. 

Hope you enjoy! 

EDITED 

I'm not loving this project and I guess I tried to rush it to finish it, but here is the one edited versions of the bus. The type is aligned and positioned in order and the NHS logo was put in. 

This design is pretty much the same but obviously the text is a different font, I used Teen for this, looked alright and did the trick. My tutor said he liked the design just to play about with the text and make it fill the side of the bus. 

P.S. If you click on the image to view it bigger - it tends to look better then rather than being squished and gritty.
