Johns awful business card.


This is the original business card of Johns however, this business card would be classed as 'Conflicting' as there is three different types on this card, however, they are all similar. A good business card is 'Contrasting' this means there would be three type faces on the card and they would be be all very different type faces another thing that makes a good business card is making sure the eye only has to move from one place to another only twice at the most making it quick and simple to read this makes it a fun good looking business card. If a business card was made up of text with the same type face that would be called 'Concord'.
This is my business card and as you can se i have changed it quite a bit making it look better and easier to read.

Strokes on text

I put a a weight of 1pt on some text as it was the right type face however, it wasn't thick enough and putting a small weight on it gives it that bit more thickness to it.

All text added


At this point in the process I have added all text and now I just need to take a photo of someone positioning them in the same way as Victoria Beckham is in this picture.

I then added more text finding the right type face for them on 'Dafont' I then changed the colour, size, kerning and tracking.

Vogue Magazine - heading

This is the start of my magazine I started off with the heading. I did this b finding a  similar type face as "VOGUE" I used 'fine style' I personally think this type face has used well.

Finding a magazine

I chose a Vogue Magazine featuring Victoria Beckham

Final NME magazine screenshot


Using Skew

Skewing is where you can change the degree your wring is at (false italics). The second screenshot is showing where I have used this technique. 

Kerning



In these screen shots I am showing kerning. Kerning is where you can change how large the space between each letter is. The second the screenshot is showing where I have used kerning.

New front cover to camera manual






This is my new front cover to the Camera Manual. I changed the colours of the camera so I have a running theme of colours through my work which as you can see is blue and orange. These colours contrast with each other making them stand out.

Camera Manual

This was the first improvement I made on my Camera Manual. I changed the background and the camera colour also the font I change the leading to 10pt to make it closer together.

Front cover Camera Manual -these colours didn't work

This is the first attempt of making my Camera Manual , however, we came to the concullsion that it would look better with a white background and the same colours (orange and blue) running through the manual but only in the pictures.
