'Removing myself from blog posts' - To start writing in the third person, rather than the first person.
Task 1
Fixing blog post: "Product Box and Manual - Studio Brief 02 - OUGD504"
Before:
"To apply my designs to actual products I wanted to create packaging for the MIDI controller as well as a manual.
By using the same Pantone colour from the logo, I was able to match up using the palette I saved earlier. I wanted the box to be simple and reflect the design of the product, so I went for a single colour and a subtle gloss varnish for the type and logo.
The instruction manual is of similar finish, but rather than the type have a gloss finish, it is only the logo that does. The paper that would be used is of a matt finish to compliment the gloss varnish throughout the packaging."
After:
"To apply to final logo designs to actual products, choosing something that can be applied in industry was crucial. So packaging for the MIDI controller as well as a manual was a basic choice which is necessary for the product to become a consumer friendly, sellable piece of merchandise.
By using the same Pantone colour from the logo, which was recovered by using a palette saved for this specific brief to ensure consistency. The box needs to be simple and reflect the design of the product, so opting for a single colour and a subtle gloss varnish for the type and logo does just that.
The instruction manual is of similar finish, but rather than the type having a gloss finish, it is only the logo that does to ensure clarity for the consumer. The paper that would be used is of a matt finish to compliment the gloss varnish throughout the packaging."
Task 2
Identify a change that was made purely from personal preference and alter it to have an objective meaning.
Before:
"Expanding on the idea of the utilisation of the shape, I added text to see where it could go, but I find the logo too distracting from the text, in other words, too complex, I need a simpler shape."
After:
"To expanding on the idea of the utilisation of the shape, added text gives the consumer a clearer idea of what the product is, however the icon is too distractive from the text, in other words, too complex, a simpler shape will be required to represent the product more appropriately."
What is the difference between the following types of writing:
Describing
Analysing
Evaluating
Contextualising
Theorising
Narrating
Task 3
Summarising and evaluating:
"The use of Arial Rounded compliments the logo's soft edges. I was able to incorporate the overall aesthetic feel of all of the logo's elements by combining the rounded strokes within the type that was used. This is especially effective as I'd originally intended on representing the product and its circular elements which has been accomplished.
