Tenth day at work

Only had half a day today so felt a bit unmotivated but still got only with previous projects I was working on. This consisted of doing more of Jamm's branding which was fine. I had a lot of amendments to make on the brochure and proposal etc. which I really wasn't looking forward to because I really had no idea which style I should go for and what worked well.

Brochure:
With the brochure, at first Andy really liked his design of his brochure that he did recently, but we all felt it didn't link in with the rest of the branding well so we decided to redo the rest of the brochure. This required quite a bit of work seeing as there were 12 pages to design altogether. So I started trying things out, still using some of the aspects of the previous brochure.


Compliment Slip:
This was coming along, after much advice from Andy, I felt that this was finally coming together in a way:


Letterhead:


Proposal:
This was really frustrating to design at the time because is had to be done in Word, which made it extremely stressful because Word isn't a design software and it uses this wrapping technique for images, so a lot of the time was spent trying to work out how to keep the text boxes and images in the same place. I also had to ensure that the design wasn't that complicated that James couldn't figure out how to edit the text in the text boxes. It had to be user friendly which limited the design aspect of the proposal. This was probably the hardest part of Jamm's branding I had to deal with, I just didn't know how to compose the page, but once I had the header part of the letterhead fixed, I transferred the same idea to the proposal, which worked well:



Everything was coming together with the compliment slip, letterhead and proposal. Though the brochure still needed a lot of work.
