first net design layout of pack: i wanted to contain all my cv information onto the pack so it is sort of unavoidable like a piece of paper would be...i also thought a cv in a letter format is predictable which doesn't scream creativity.
talking to peers and Fred about the contents of my promo pack made me rethink and remember what the actual point of a promo pack was for - to showcase my practice, i think before i was getting side tracked thinking about mechanise and the concept of my pack (a pack of illustration tools) which would be confusing and a hassle to get my hands on when all i really needed was to apply my work onto things that would promote and show my work. so i have decided to choose 3 things - postcards: which can show different pieces of my work to show the variety in my practice. stickers: with my brand name and self portrait promo pack logo on to strike recognition to my pack when stuck to random places. And business cards: which also contains my portrait on with relevant contact information.
though i do like the idea of applying my work onto unusual and usable merchandise such as rubbers, pens, i think this became a confusing and difficult task for me as my illustration style is detailed an figurative which i think cannot be appreciated on such small mechanise unlike say repeated pattern designs or comic/character design. |
