Around College






Leaflet and Flyer





Leaflet was done by myself. The design was simple and informative for this leaflet which was basically what i was going for. Everything lined up well during print but the bleed should of been extended on the blue as it has a millimeter of white stock visible due to margin of printing error.




Had some input within the flyers but was mainly done by Kirsty Alderson and Alex slippins

Final Flyers



These are the final sets of flyers we produced, the only problem with these are cost and the fact that the e-mail adress isn't on them so no one will know where to send any of there photos or videos. To improve these we would need to of screen printed them, which would allow us to make a lot more for cheaper.

Website





These are some of the screenshots from the website I made initially, working on the site stopped after our second crit when Jo made the point of substiting facebook to go onto a different website is not a good idea, we agreed as a group to try and keep our project as low teck as possible. 

Personally i really enjoyed building this website, i used a java website which gave me a few things to work with but i had to make most of my content in illustrator then import in as an image which was a lot of effort because the software for this free website wasn't very good, i would like to make my own website on Dreamweaver soon. 

Posters





These are some of the posters which were redone to make them more personal to facebook and to the people who use them, they have also slightly less offensive then the original ones. The only thing which need to be added is the e-mail or some information which could somehow link to letting the public know not to go on facebook for a day and to e-mail in photos of what they did instead. 

Information leaflet


The first leaflet


The 2nd leaflet quickly finished to add slightly more information and to fill the outside page a bit instead of leaving it empty.

This is the final leaflet design, its broken up into 3 sections on the inside, What were about/What we Found/ What you can do. Personally i feel that the front of the leaflet is too empty, theres two pages which just havent been filled. If i had more time i would research more relevant sections on facebook to add into those two pages.

Some more posters

We were stuck in some ideas for posters so i went away and just tried a different approach to see if it could spark any ideas for new posters or layouts. i just kind of played round with some info graphs to see what it would look like. i kept to the same colour scheme and so on.



Flyer idea i had as well:


Just a quick flyer front idea i had




Poster layouts










Posters by marty and sam edwards. The problem we found with these are the tag lines weren't always clear and at some times very very offensive so we needed to change them to make them fit the public slightly better

Crit Feedback


After having our crit with Amber and Jo it was brought to our attention that the idea of a book of things to do before you die would be to simple and has been done many times before, this is not what we were wanting for the group. Therefor we have changed the way in which we will approach this brief.

We then managed to gather as a group and go over the way that everything was to be created, we decided to create an Anti-Facebook campaign, we wanted to create such a compelling way to change how people look at these social websites or in our case, anti social.

We are going to group again on Monday and then decide on how we want to take this new idea and what we all have created in a group effort, the best way to make these look the best would be to make them compelling and fresh. These ideas will all be grouped together and then we will start the design process.

More design Sheets about our Facebook Concept

Questionnaire

This is the final Questionnaire we handed out to the public to try and work out some statistics to prove our concept.

Research



These images are all from a website which i found which encourages people to do things which are out there and a little out of peoples comfort zones, this makes them be more adventures which is sort of like the sort of thing we are trying to create. This then becomes a strong source of evidence to what we are wanting to create for the final outcome. There are more things on the website which we could look into which could spur on other ideas for us but as of the blog i think these few could be enough to makes it work.
