Here is an example of some work i did for a friends film company. I think the logo explains itself.
I also did a web banner for the official facebook page. You can check it out at https://www.facebook.com/Homeguard2013?notif_t=fbpage_fan_invite. I recommend everyone does.
Dealing with many listeners with learning difficulties and autism i though it would be a good idea to incorporate bright colours into my design whilst keeping it simple but still using typical traits of that of a radio station i.e. radio signals etc. Also note the A shape reference in the logo.
After feedback in class today this is what I came up with.
I think this design speaks for it self.
The idea behind this is that by making the brain into a puzzle its a direct reference as to people might not understand it and it takes a while to piece it together, similiar to in the film conversations are always held and bits pieced together to work out emotions etc.
By having a piece missing this symbolizes that perhaps its not complete – a metaphor for the friendships developed between McMurphy and his peers. As McMurphy is different from his peers yet can still associate himself with the group, the missing piece has been put onto the spine and if you were to insert it in the gap in the puzzle it would fit but be a different colour containing a different meaning – that of a free mind perhaps.
I felt the need for a slight background on the back cover and i think the metal fence wiring works really well not only as a reference point to the film but if you notice it not where its supposed to be and looks upside down- symbolizing schizophrenia and things are not always what they seem which plays an important part in the film.
This a close up screen grab off what the finished piece will resemble kinda like a half tone effect.
This is the final poster concept I came up  with.
I think it works better and is not just saying fashion is for girls as the colour choice is not as in your face.
This idea is about being curious. Curious about fashion and curious about life. The idea of taking risks to achive your goals and not following a crowd. Also the Union Jack thrown in to represent the show being British as this is an important year for the UK. Also client requirement wanted it ‘ British’. Possibly more body text to put on yet? who knows. Also you cant see it on here but its done sort of with halftone dots. Hopefully will make a great print.
Printed in 3. 850mm x 1230mm
After feedback from class its now changed to this.
