Evaluation

The way in which my pieces of work meet the needs of the brief is that I created a business card, letter head and compliment slip to identify myself as a designer. I think that I have shown myself and my style well with the set of documents that I have created. I have included everything that was required on the brief to be on the documents. The strengths of the documents I have created are my logo and layout on my business card. I am really pleased with the outcome of these, all my documents as a set I think is another strong point. Another strong point is that I the logo that I have made myself is that I am able to change the colour to suit a certain company or scenario. I think that this works well for a CV and a cover letter and I will definitely be using it for personal use for things such as this. The only weakness I think that my documents might have is that they are quite simple. To me this is a strong point but I think to some who has different views might see this as a weakness.The audience for this piece of work is possible clients and fellow designers. I want to show my style of designing with these and so I think people who have an interest in design will see where I am coming from with this. But this could be mis-understood by people who don't really know much about logo design and layout, by only seeing the logo, and not knowing or recognising it. 

My time keeping in this quick project was good. We were all given the brief on Monday and the hand in day is Friday so I only had a week to do enough relevant research and the designing and also getting some experimentation in for the documents. I found my research for this project really helped me get some inspiration, there is so many different business card made my many different amazing designers who make cards in lots of different styles and themes, also using type to create the cards, some use logos but I think by looking at these it gave my my idea. I used experimentation throughout this project, After creating my logo I wanted to see all the different ways in which it can be used, colour wise. I did so many different colour ways to see how each would look, as I thought that I could use this to my advantage for colour of papers and also seasonal business cards. The parts that I enjoyed the most with this project was the designing of the logo and layout of the card. I needed to get the size of the text right so I spent quite a lot of time getting this right but the experimentation brought this along well.
