Studio brief 3 - Evaluation

STUDIO BRIEF 3 - EVALUATION

For studio brief 3 - LIFES A PITCH! I was in a group with Pri , Ewan , Sean & James. I had only worked with two of the boys in the group before so i was really looking forward to seeing what everyone had to offer. I loved working in the group i was in all the meetings that i had set up were all attended by everyone even over the easter break everyone made the effort.

I think this type of brief was exciting because we haven't done anything similar like this before so it was a change.I think working in a group was enjoyable we all got on well and didn't have any disagreements.To begin with we sat around and made a list of some names we could possibly call ourselves and as we were struggling we moved on to location ect.. then went back to the name. 

We decided to call ourselves 'Stvdio' as there were five us us the letter 'v' replaced the 'u' in studio like the roman numeral. I wasn't sure on the idea at first as people might not understand but the more we used our branding across our presentation i felt it began to work and i was pleased with it. I think the only problem i faced in the group was not getting involved in the money side as much as i would of liked to i think its so important to know about these kind of things especially so close to the third year and finishing the corse. Overall i did look into other peoples roles we did make a lot of decisions as a group.

I think my strength with in the group was probably organisation skills as i wanted everyone to meet up together so know one missed anything. I would definitely like to do this again in the third year. As there was somethings i felt i may of missed from working in the group i will set my self some targets for next year.

StVdio - Group Presentation

Group Photo

GROUP PHOTO

I decided to make our presentation a have a friendly feel it would be a good idea to add images of everyone one of us show underneath our heads on the slide showing our job roles. I feel as though if we were presenting to real clients it would be great to put a name to the face!

I first decided to go to the student administration and asked the lady to send me our year photos.
unfortunately the images sent to me were too small for our presentation.

I decided we should take some group pictures to use instead.


GROUP PHOTOS.

I felt this was a nice friendly way to present ourselves. We wanted to come across easy going so we took the image ourself and gathered in a group.

We decided to use this image and put our names underneath in order of how we were stood.

Yearly outgoings & Job Roles

YEARLY OUTGOINGS & JOB ROLES

We worked out our yearly outgoings based on the costs we would spend. 

• Chairs

• Internet phone

• Stationary 

• Office space

We also arranged who would have what job role in our group first by making a list of the different types of jobs within the industry.

 These were our designated roles-

Print Director-

The role given to me within my ppp group is the print director so i felt i would do some research to find some details about the job description.

Print Director/Manager

The Print Production Manager is responsible for the planning, execution and project management of the company's entire process of print production within marketing direct mail acquisitions and fulfillment manufacturing. This includes the supply chain process for all print production requirements from planning, RFQ, through delivery of components and letter shop. In addition, the Manager will liaise internally and externally with vendors, while managing the flow of information to ensure timely and efficient delivery to customers.

Branding - Type & Colour choices

TYPE & COLOUR CHOICES

Another one of my roles in PPP was to help brand our studio we had already decided on the logo so it was a case of finding the best colours appropriate to match our design styles.

Avenir & Didot

We preferred the first choice. We have specifically used the letter V instead of a U so that it represents the five in roman numerals and the five people in our group.

Experimentation.

I used lots of colour pallets until i found the appropriate choice.

After showing the group my final experimentation everyone agreed to keep our logo black but use the cream and black for our design aesthetics.

Final - 

Establishing our Studio Aesthetics

STUDIO AESTHETICS

As part of my role in the group i researched some aesthetics for our studio. We wanted it to be a nice environment for when our clients came for a visit. I made sure i kept our list in mind when looking for the perfect office space.
