Workshop 12 – Finalised Infographic Layouts

During the final week before submission I created my final output formats for my Einstein brief. This included the Mobile application and a mock up website.

This image is my final rendition of the A2 poster, I’ve made slight tweaks to the information and I’ve also changed the standards graphic of Einstein and I’ve put him into a circle, this mirrors the running theme I have with Ovals and circular shapes and overall sits a lot better on the page than it did prior.

These two images are the mobile app, for the application I wanted something light-hearted and fun, although it looks quite separate and out of place in comparison to the A2 poster I feel as though the Application works better as a standalone piece. The application however also goes well with the website created to support the other formats.

The final output is the Website. Although there isn’t much development on the side of the application and website I feel as thought it came out at the best standard I could’ve hoped for, making the need for further iterations somewhat redundant. Overall I’m happy with how there’s an overall theme with: Colour, graphics and overall presentation. I feel as though the running theme with the blue complimenting the orange works extremely well.

Workshop 11 – Presentation of Finalised Ideas

During week 11 there was an assessed presentation on my final design and intended outputs for typography. The Einstein brief was also assessed.

For this I created a Pdf from an indesign file and presented my near finished design product.

In this presentation I’ve shown my research from prior and the development of my ideas towards final hand in standards, at this point the only outputs that are missing are my website and my Mobile applications.

Workshop 9 – Near Completion of A2 Poster

During week 9 I went back to the Einstein brief, I made further iterations on the overall design of my poster and eventually came to a near final product.

I decided to start from scratch with my A2 poster and go for a theme which had some overall flow to it. After researching the information on Einstein’s wormhole theory I had a general idea of the audience I wanted to aim my design at along with the supporting graphics I wanted to create.

For my audience I set out to create something informative for younger teenagers, children who are potentially leaving primary school and heading to secondary. I’m also slowly starting to piece together a colour theme, for this I used to website called http://www.paletton.com this gave me reassurance with the colours I was using.

My second iteration of the one above just expanded on the usage of vectors and the created more of a solid colour theme with the usage of Blues and Orange.

Workshop 6 – Einstein Brief

During workshop 6 the group was given a new brief to create an infographic regarding Einstein and his theory of relativity. In order to get a feel for infographics and the type of content I’d need to create I searched for some online.

Upon searching for Einstein infographics I had a rough Idea of what direction I wanted to take with it, the design on the right was visually appealing and something I wanted to work towards.

Other infographics which captured my attention although not relevant to Einstein were ones for gaming which showed facts and figures to give some perspective into how popular the game was.

In the example above really liked the overall aesthetics, this made me further look into colour wheels and what colours compliment others.
