Typopassage exhibition.

An exhibition showing typographers work spanning from the initial concept to the final piece of type. Its really interesting to see how the type has been made, what system they have used and why. The type shown is very experimental, creating grids and processes to apply to type design

Changing the channel

I have changed the channel that i will show the programme on to channel 5 ...this is because channel 5 show more entertainment programmes.

CURRENT CHANNEL 5 LOGO
 OLD CHANNEL FIVE LOGO






I love this ident it has the feel of a entertainment show, i like the lights around the channel 5 logo, how it makes it look like a show title.


Incorporating the logo into the theme of the programme.


This simple little animation used within the ident works so well and i can imagine would be something we could actually design!

DvD Packaging Designs


 The cut out windows work really well connecting the outer packaging with the cd, i like the repeated patterns and small colour palette used, it makes a sophisticated piece of design.
(Card with Plastic Inner)
 I like how the designer  has used the outer and inner faces as whole faces to work on, this allows the design to continue around onto the next face, it has a nice flow and limited colour palette which works well with the rough textures.

Thinking outside the box, or in. The cd package being an object! I like how the cd's are made to look like cogs, the inner mechanisms found inside the package.


I'm not as keen on the overall look of the design although i like how they have thought creatively when designing the case,  how it opens, the material.

 Paper folding! Interesting shapes created, fold out with info and illustrated cd artwork. I like the variety between the inside and outside of the packaging.

 Looking at different materials, using foam to hold cd in place and protect, i will look at using different materials. Also i like how the cd can be seen from the outside and continues on the illustration connecting the two.

Music Packaging, making it look like the object, i especially like the 'decks' packaging and how the cd is made to look like a vinyl and the extra design around it to increase the appearence.
