Project 1

Breif:

For our first brief, we had to create a personal branding that would be used through a 16-page foliozine. I approached this with a clean, vintage theme as that is one of many styles of design I really like.

Self branding

Cover page

This is my cover page for my foliozine contianting my name and a self portrait.

I am happiest when I am creating something new, whether it is a design for a client or a piece of art for myself. I pour my heart and soul into everything I do, and strive to create work that is not only visually stunning but also meaningful. I am excited about what the future holds, and hope to continue using my skills to make a positive impact on the world around me.

Project 2

Breif:

For our second brief, we were asked to create a beer label for a local craft brewery or create our own using a Western Australian landmark. I made a brewery based around Cervantes and a beer for the Pinnacles as it is very iconic and recognisable.

Craft Beer Label

I chose The pinnacles as my Western Australian landmark. My Company is called 'Cervantes Brewing Co.' as Cervantes is the town closest to the Pinnacles. My favourite thing about the. I created a Lime flavoured lager called Limestone. I chose the name as the Pinnacles are made out of limestone so it was a good twist on the name.

Layout - Completed label layout

Project 3

For our third brief, we had to make an album cover for our favourite artist.

I chose the album ‘Stop Staring At the Shadows' by $uicideboy$.

I created this by compiling and manipulating multiple images to create a mystical theme.

Album Cover

Front Cover

Back Cover

Process

Using all 8 of these images I composed them to look like a big mysterious cave containing a statue.

I have outlined below which part of the images I used

Cave

Rocks

Gravel

Water

Rocks for edges

Statue

Rocks for edges

I was extremally happy with this project as the result was exactly what I was imagining. Using ideas from the old album cover, for example, the statue and the idea of having two people incorporated in the design. The album cover has a fantasy/mystical feeling as the scale of the statue appears huge and the eyes are glowing. I love how this turned out and I hope you enjoyed learning the process behind it.
