So I moved onto creating illustrations of desks that one might find in the college. To make the type match the outlined style of the illustrations and make it stand out more I decided to add a coloured drop shadow. I think the 3D effect this creates makes the type stand out from the background and demand as much attention as the illustrations. I also created an outside scene of the college building to represent the college as a whole. I was also asked to change the text used slightly and add in more relevant links. I think that cutting off the colour to highlight where to go to take action is a good idea as it makes it easier to understand and read at a glance.
I heard back from the SU that I had been chosen to complete the posters! They gave me some really good feedback and a big list of things to do. This meant I had more designs to complete as I had originally thought but I was able to plan accordingly. However I do like a challenge so I cracked on with developing my ideas.
I particularly struggled with some of the courses that might not necessarily be desk based, like photography, fashion and fine art however I managed to create a scene away from a desk that I feel suits them. Additionally I tried to add pictures in frames to the walls that would represent the course as well to further strengthen the connections.
