Value Project final

My final format is a black pyramid that opens up to 3 solid boxes sitting on colour splatters inside. The pyramid represents standing up for the truth and the black represents the first half of my project, the value poster. However when it opens up, it's extremely colourful inside with colour splatters. This shows how I have grown and developed as a designer. Each box has a different set of information, my logo and branding, 10 commitments and myself paragraph.

Value Project- part 2

Following up from our value poster, we took part in a workshop that helped us decide our commitments as a designer. Our aim then was to create an identity logo, a slogan, 10 commitments, write a paragraph about ourselves, what is important to us and how it links to our design and skills we need to fulfil our commitments. We then had to choose a format that would express our value type.

Value Poster

Value Poster

Based on our lecturer's Phd project, we underwent a very exciting and interesting project, discovering our values as a designer. We initially carried out an eulogy test which produced a few goals that we can carry as a designer. We participated in a value/personality test which demonstrated what kind of a perssn we are. Eg. Kind-hearted, enthusiastic. Our aim was to then construct a sentence with our goal and value type. My sentence was "I will always stand up for the truth by being committed."

Our new brief involved looking at opposite words like our previous typography project and using marks to express the words. The words I chose were happy & sad, dark & light and  chaos & order. Our aim was to create a design piece which included the word, its definition and marks which express the word from a chosen object. The object I chose to create my marks was lipstick. Our goal was to go wild and creative with mark making!

After completing our first info graphic, our aim was to develop a second one using the same information but with a completely different layout. I chose a menu type layout and changed my color scheme to natural earthy colors.
