For the first unit of my A2 ICT course I was required to create a fully functioning website for an organisation of my choices. I chose to re-design the mere trail's website (an outdoor advneture trail within local community). Taking in to account my target auidence i designed a suitable web page for a family auidence allowing them to interact with the site (via interactive map), and get a taster of what to expect from the mere trail.

I am currently in the processes of uploading the site to a server so it can be accesss via the interent, as soon as I have done so I will update this blog link.

The project required us to create all the elements and take all pictures our selves and produce a high quality magazine

For my AS product design coursework I was required to create and complete two sperate projects; I chose to design a chair and a decorative candle holder, for which I created my own brief. The powerpoint above contains all of the research I carried out as well as my inital ideas, development, final design, CAD/CAM drawings, Google sketch up and images showing the processes I took to create the two projects.

Collages

I was just flicking through random folders and found these collages I made last summer of me a friends. I really like some of the brushes I have used I might redo some of the logos using them.

Illustration

I've been working on some illustration designs for a princess book I might create for my nieces birthday, I'm still unsure of whether or not to make it as a book or just keep it simple and create a birthday card; as soon as I have finished though I'll update this blog.

Invitations

Ive been working on some inviation designs for friends 18th this week here is what i have come up with some far. However I still think they need some work.

Logo Designs

This is a logo design I created for a friends band, they wanted something eye catching and interesting to reflect their band, taking this in to account I used the program Corel paint shop to design the logo.

The following designs are logos i have created for product design coursework to accompy the carry case i have designed as an identity for the business behind the case I am designing.

                                        

Here is a collection of logo designs I created as part of dt coursework to accompy my designs for the portable case I am designing in the current course. As they are logos I have kept the designs fairly simple, however none of these are final as I am still working on them to improve quality and editing colour choices.

Fundraiser Posters

Above are the posters I created for a fundraiser we had in sixth form. We held a sixth form night out at a local pub where everyone paid £3 entry which went towards our year 13 prom. I wanted the posters to be eye catching, so people would notice them in our common room so I chose a black background to create a contrasting affecting against the colour. In the end my final design which I used was the 3rd poster; because it was th

e most effective and easiest to read.

Leeds Brief

Here are the pieces of work I sent off to Leeds to reply to their brief, where you had to design four posters using one of four symbols. I chose the speech bubble as it had the most potential, and reflected my opinion of celebrity culture. I chose celebrity culture as I had confident understanding of the culture because of media studies.
