OUDG405- Edible Type



Edible Type

We started off my researching what we should make we came across a brownie recipes that sounded good and also looked good. We also decide to do this as we thought it wouldn’t be too hard to make. We collected the ingredients to make a practice brownie it came out well and tasted good, so the next we got are ingredients again and made 3 brownies. When making it we had to make each level of the brownie and let it set to make the next level we had 3 levels bottom brownie. Seconded was marshmallow and top level was rice krispies. Once all 3 brownies was set we cut them in to letters and made LCA out of them and we then we made a Christmas crackers out of rapping paper as it was close to Christmas we thought it should be a Christmas theme.
















































OUDG405- Final Evaluation

OUDG405-Design process
­­




In this project ‘design process’ I have learn a lot of new skills and things Throughout each brief, that I will apply to the other projects to come.
In studio 01 brief 1 I learnt how to create images with shape and also improve my skills on Photoshop, studio brief 02 I leant about how research can you in creating something. In studio brief 03 and 04 I improve my skills in InDesign and become more create with layouts and also learning how to create a booklet.
Each brief was really different and changing but also fun the brief I’m most pleased with is studio brief 03 and 04 this because both came out how I wanted them to look clear, simple and modern I feel I have become better at creating layout, also have a physical booklet is pretty cool as it feels like I have achieved something. The Crit sessions we had were really helpfully it helped me to improve and develop my work. The main part in all briefs that helped me was the research, the research helped me come up with ideas straight away and really inspired my finals comes in the previous module the ideas helped me most than the research but defiantly in this module it was research that helped me the more.
The InDesign workshops were really helpfully I now understand InDesign and how it works, with out them workshop I wouldn’t of been able to produce the work I did. 

I pleased with all my briefs and my final outcomes. If I had to do something different it would spend more time on studio brief 01 and maybe come up with more creative design I feel my final wasn’t good because I was less interested in this brief so I think that why my final didn’t come out as good as I wanted it to look. My attendance for this project was good I was in for the all lessons and used some of the studio development days. But I mostly got all my work done at home when it was a studio development day as I can concentrate better when I’m on my own.

Overall I have enjoyed this module and have defiantly learnt lots throughout and also improved.

OUDG405-Studio brief 03 Final Outcome


This brief I had to create a booklet for the research I did in studio brief 02, when creating the booklet the research into different layouts and magazines really helped to create it once I did the research I then knew what I wanted to do and what I wanted it to look like. The booklet came out really well simple clear with a lot of white space which I wanted also the choice of font really helped when trying to make it clear. The booklet is very modern which works with the target audience young adults and people who are in to the cocktail world. The information in the booklet is clear and well layout out, due to time in the brief I could make the facts and statists more interactive and creative if I had more I time would of experiment and made them fun to look at instead of just type.

OUDG405- Studio Brief 04 Final outcome


In this brief my aim was to create and solve a problem, which was, menus can to be too complex, busy, and hard to read in low lighting and too much information. I feel have solved this problem by creating a simple menu that is easy to follow and to understand and also would be able to be seen in low lighting. All the research I did in studio brief 02, 03 and 04 the layout the colours and also the typefaces from the research has inspired this final produced. The final Produced came out how I wanted it to look simple and modern which work well for my target audience young adults, if I had more time I would of experimented with luminous paint as I feel that could would really well for the low lighting but overall I feel have solved my problem and created menu which would work in Dirty Martini.
