Hand-in Requirements

As well as the hand-in requirements listed in my Learning Agreement (research book/blog, design ideas, realisation of designs, storyboards for shoot, final images) i have also made a condensed version of my project in a book, a jewellery box and considered packaging for my jewellery.
In previous projects i have just handed in what is required and not developed this any further. Following a tutorial with Tammy she suggested I needed to think about my work post-hand-in and in a more professional context.


As a result i made a small book to show professional employers in an interview situation rather than carrying multiple sketchbooks/design sheets/presentation boards. I included a few sketchbook pages to 'set the scene' of the project, design development sheets, final illustrations, my work being worn by The Girls, samples of shoots/text from Amelias and the final spread. I scanned in all the sheets for a clean-cut professional finish as opposed to having a scrappy sketchbook! In some scenarious my original sketchbook with more texture will show my personality more but now i have the option of both depending on the situation.


I further developed my design ideas by considering how they would be stored and it lead me to create the jewellery box/necklace stand which i feel is a real asset to my project and individual boxes for the pieces. This shows i have considered the different contexts my jewellery could be in; stand for in a shop to show necklaces off in a way which is consistant with my brand image, cupcake boxes to create keepsakes which can be displayed in the boxes yet still seen in a retail scenario or in the customers home.
