Another instalment of my New Media and Web Design briefs! This week has been no so busy as the last but I've still been doing quite a few things this week too!
I haven't done too much this week for my New Media brief as I had a lot of that caught up with at the moment. So I've been developing a lot more stuff for my Web Design brief.
So I'm into week 2 of my New Media & Web Design briefs. And yet again it's been a busy week!
I realise I've still go to write up my final post on Digital Imaging- Calendar but I've still got some stuff that I'm trying to prefect so that I can hopefully start selling it. I will try and write up a blog post about my development and such this week and I can maybe show you the final designs and such that would be up for sale shortly after. But in the mean time you can look at my progress for it on Instagram and for now, I shall be writing up about my next two briefs.
So as the title suggests my next two briefs are to do on New Media and Web Design. These briefs are both separate but I'm doing them both in college at the same time.
After the horrible infographic unit I had to do, we were briefed with the second part of our Digital Imaging unit which is to create and design a calendar.
I was back to college last week and to basically get us on our feet running, we were given the competition brief called 'Creative Anarchy'. We were given the three days we were in college, and up until till Friday to submit our designs for the competition to our college submission page (the closing date for entries isn't till the 15th October).
Creative Anarchy is a book that is being that is being created to teach about the rules of graphic design and how to go about breaking them. Designs submitted can either be about following the rules or breaking them. The brief also says you can submit designs for posters, logos, web sites, magazines, t-shirts, etc.
When I started of doing the brief I was pretty stuck to be honest. I wasn't really sure in which direction I should go with for the design. However, after doodling and spending a good half hour sitting in the library looking at some atrocious design books, I finally came up with a few designs.
In the end I couldn't really decide which one I preferred so I decided to submit them all. Fingers crossed for it then! Also let me know if you end up entering it as well!
If you would like to enter the competition or just look at the submission guidelines then you can do so here.
