Choosing Briefs

1. Gruff Trade
Re-design the logo, overall look and design of the Gruff Trade music blog and social media sites. Also looking at the promotional material, including t-shirt designs and prints.

2.Penguin Design Award
'The Big Sleep is a serious and significant mainstream novel that just happens to possess elements of mystery and crime. The story is well known both in celluloid and print so it is essential to come at it from a fresh angle. Try to design a new cover for a new generation of readers, avoiding the obvious clichés. Originality is key.'

Enter the Penguin design award, redesigning the cover of The Big Sleep. And also the Puffins Children Award which is to redesign The Wind and The Willows.

7.Ellas Kitchen-YCN

'Design a tool kit to communicate the Ella’s Kitchen brand and its values to all of our current and future stakeholders. By stakeholders we mean anyone who comes into contact with Ella’s Kitchen in a professional capacity.'
I want to use this brief and focus on the customer interaction side
of the product, looking mostly at the packaging of the product.
The company is small and has a child like image which is fitting with
the style of my work. 

8.Over the Hills and Far Away Competition
To design an illustration for a double page spread for The Over the Hills and 
far away collection of rhymes for children.

11. UK Greetings-YCN
To design at least a range of 4 greetings cards for UK greetings.
From this I can also expand the range of products to more than
just greetings cards. This brief will also allow me to explore different
print processes.

12.Secret 7"
Secret 7" ask artists to take a slected song and design a 7" vinyl sleeve
inspired by that song.
There are a few songs to choose from but I think I will choose The Beast by Laura Marling.

The deadline is Feb 18th.
