This was a follow up progress crit just to stay on top of our work and see how far we had progresses from the last one. I'd spent most of my time making design plans and refining them and I'd done a few designs for T-shirts and a logo which will be printed across my entire range. I also looked briefly at colour and stock but not in any great depth.
The Crit ran in groups of 6 with each person presenting for 2 minutes where they are with their work, what they are liking and disliking, coping with and struggling with etc and plans for the next few weeks.
In brief, here is the feed back that I got from my group:-
- redesign the type on the flea logo
- look at old fashioned packaging for brit pop and vintage styles
- use one face for per t-shirt print
- get one image repeated for patterned t-shirt design (also applicable to packaging) e.g. moustache, glasses, pipe etc...
- play around with colour tones for pattern
- experiment with colour on t-shirts, try one colour plus stock colour of the shirt
- use old vintage magazines for that vintage feel for the publication
- look at textures in photoshop
Extra points made by Lorenzo:-
- Story- how does it make you want to go to the event/ buy the product/ be interested in it?
- what are you saying? - is it humorous, serious, entertaining, educational?
- who are you saying it to? - who's your audience?
