OUGD503: Responsive Design Process 2 - Competition Brief 3: Secret 7", Evaluation

Evaluation


Within the design work I have previously produced I tend to rely on typography more than imagery in order to convey a message therefore I decided for my third competition brief of the Responsive module in order to challenge myself to convey the song purely through imagery.

I have always put a particular emphasis on the idea / concept generation aspect of the design process within my professional practice. Therefore I enjoyed this brief as it enabled me to thoroughly explore ideas to portray the song I chose and I believe the final concept for my record cover was a clever interpretation of the song.

As I put a lot of time into the idea generation part of the design process I believe the actual quality of my design suffered as a result of this, particularly as I was creating my design in Adobe Illustrator, which is a programme I am still not confident in.

Overall, I believe my design effectively answers the brief in terms that I have effectively communicated the song purely through imagery and that the simplistic design creates an immediate impact, which is appropriate for the format of a record cover.
