Throughout this assignment, I have looked to use various methods of cleaning and polishing real life things as a way of portraying the polishing of type. The use of this metaphor develops across the transmedia suite, starting with a man cleaning his type as if it were a car, and ultimately links back up with my fourth item of a car cleaning product.
The theme develops and progresses throughout the suite, consistently using different imagery to replicate something being polished, cleaned, fixed, or closely examined.
The bright blue colour has been used to represent water and cleanliness, while the use of diagonal lines help to create movement throughout the designs, particularly the brochure.
The large scale banners act as a means of wayfinding for the conference visitors, as a visual cue that they have arrived at the right place. One of my banners, is a large scale replication of my conference’s brochure cover page, with some slight adjustments
to fit the paneling of the windows.
My other banner consists of multiple smaller aspects spread around the building, such as the man cleaning the window on Te Ara Hihiko D Floor, and also the man using the chainsaw to cut the ‘12’ down to size. There are also some other small features to enhance the building such as the diagonal blue lines running along and walls and ground to assist with the wayfinding around the conference venue.
My fourth item has been chosen in order to tie the whole project back to the initial poster. It’s also quite a nice little giveaway that they will receive, as the conference is based on the lengthy process of crafting and detailing type, while the car cleaner is a “Quick Detailer Mist & Wipe”.
Overall, I am extremely pleased with how this project has developed and progressed throughout the six weeks, and I honestly feel that it has come together as a really effective transmedia suite.

Week Six - Session One
Bearing in mind that today's session was the final critique before Friday's hand-in, I made sure to have a poster and brochure developed to a high standard, as well as my banners and fourth item mocked up in-situ.
Near the beginning on the class, Donald stopped and had a look at my banners and fourth item, and really liked how they related to my design conferences theme, while still developing and progressing the imagery.
Towards the end of class, Lee came over for the one on one critique, and I showed her through my whole transmedia suite. She gave me a few minor suggestions for the brochure, such as nudging some type over slightly on two pages (Hannes von Dohren and Stefan Sagmeister pages), and said how the page with the pull out quote, being full blue with white text reversed out, was really strong and powerful, so suggested finishing the brochure with that as well, by having the back page full with the Massey and Design Institute logos reversed out in white.
Lee really liked the banners, especially the large scale white banner, how it used the windows to it's advantage, and the spanner extended down longer than the other tools because it was on a longer window, while other tools such as the scalpel were cut off short since they were on a shorter window.
For the cleaning product, Lee suggested using just one cleaning product, possibly and "all purpose cleaner", or even using the "quick detailer", as I had mentioned yesterday in my blog post, it has quite a nice connection since it's about how long it actually takes to polish type, so the "Quick Detailer Mist & Wipe" almost acts as a solution to it. Therefore, I will use one cleaning product, and have it come with the sponge and rag in a little set as seen in the photo.
My whole transmedia suite has been printed out and placed into my physical workbook, as well as attached to my most recent blog posts.
I'm going to look to head in and print today or tomorrow, after making the final few changes. I'm really happy with how this has turned out, and I'm looking forward to Friday's presentation, not only to see everyone elses work, but to display my work and see how it looks as a whole transmedia suite once professionally printed.

Fourth Item
Over the weekend I have also been working on my fourth item. For this, I was planning on creating labels for cleaning products. I decided to create some car cleaning products, which ties it back to the original poster which would've brought the visitors to the conference in the first place. It will be quite a nice tie back, since the man on the poster was hosing down the 'e' as if it was his car.
At the moment, I have it so that there are 5 different cleaners, although I'll take them to the teachers on Tuesday and get their feedback. I'm thinking it would either be better to have the visitors choose one of the cleaners to take, or else I just have one cleaner available.
If I were to do this, I would choose the "Quick Detailer Mist & Wipe", as this would also tie back nicely to the fact that it's about the lengthy process of detailing and crafting type, so it would be quite good to have a "quick detailer" cleaning product to take away from the conference.
I have attached my current products and labels below, mocked up in-situ.

Micro Banners
Over the weekend, I had been working on creating my banners for my design conference, and mocking them up in-situ. I have decided on doing large scale banners on Te Ara Hihiko, as a visual cue that the visitors have arrived in the right place for the conference.
On one side of Te Ara Hihiko, the main feature is having a stained blue window, with a halftone image of a man cleaning the window. I am going to continue this diagonal line feature by having a part of the blue stripped off, so that the man has squeegeed it clean. I am also having a blue diagonal line follow the shape of the concrete by the stairs, with the word "micro", to indicate that the conference is there.
On the other side of Te Ara Hihiko, Taranaki St side, I am having a large scale banner, tinting/staing a large section of windows white, and having my halftone tools in black. This relates to the brochure cover, and acts as a way of pulling my transmedia suite together, and also creating interest to the visitors. On the wall near the entrance, I have a halftone person, this time working on type with a chainsaw, and he is cutting a section off the number 12, to make it perfect.
In terms of way finding, I am continuing this idea of the diagonal blue lines, and using this to help navigate the users to into the building and ultimately to The Pit for to listen to the speakers.
I have attached all of my banner mock-ups below:
I will take these banners to class on Tuesday to get some feedback from Lee and Donald. I am also going to take my fourth item as well, which I will attach to my next blog post.

Week Five - Session Two
On Friday's class, I brought my developed brochure and poster to class, and had some my one on one session with Lee, and briefly with Donald as he walked past at the beginning of the class. I had made some quite big developments in my poster, still using the same man hosing down a letter, although changing the scale and composition to make it a lot more interesting to look at. I realised that the whole 'e' didn't need to be on the page, I could have it cropped out and people would still know what it was. I feel like the change from a halftone letter to a solid letter on the poster was a big positive development, helping create some more hierarchy within the poster.
Donald just looked at the poster, but really liked the development. He liked the enlarged scale, use of larger dots in the halftone, and also found the new diagonal blue section (representing water from the hose) a lot more.
Lee liked the poster improvement, and said the typographic layout was really lovely. Which is fitting as my conference is about polishing type to perfection, so ultimately the aim is to have my own type fully crafted and polished. In terms of the brochure, Lee really liked this as well, and suggested now to focus on coming up with the banners and the fourth item.
In terms of my own opinion, I'm really happy with how my poster has come along. I felt as if I was stuck working with the same image, at the same scale, and trying to force that to work, so I sat down and tried playing around with scale in an even more dramatic fashion, and using cropping on the letter 'e' to make it more interesting, rather than being centred. This also freed up space for the rest of the type to nicely sit on the right hand side of the page. There are a few small things I noticed to change. One being some of the kerning on the sub-heading "A typographic conference polished to perfection", adjusting the shadow of the 'e' slightly, and then a slight change to the water coming out of the hose. These changes have been highlighted and pointed out in my physical workbook on the poster printout.
I'm happy with how my brochure has developed as well. I feel as though it expands and develops from my poster, introducing more of the blue line, more tools and keeps the viewer interested by slightly changing the layout on each page, while sticking to the same grid structure.
I have attached my poster below, and the brochure can be seen mocked up in my physical workbook:

For my banners, I am going to use them on Te Ara Hihiko, to help with the way-finding, and act as a visual cue that the visitors to the conference are in the right place. I'm wanting to do a large scale banner, and possibly a few smaller features. I'm going to continue developing this idea of people cleaning and polishing. For my fourth item, I think it is fitting to do personalised "micro" cleaning products, potentially for car cleaning, that way it relates directly back to my poster, where the man is cleaning an "e" as if it's his car.
I'm really excited to work on the banners and fourth item, and see how they will look when mocked up in-situ. Over the weekend, I will head back up to uni and take some photos of Te Ara Hihiko so I can create this mock-ups on Photoshop. I find it super fun trying to make things look realistic and mocking them up in context, so I have a feeling I'm really going to enjoy these next two tasks, and am confident that I'll be able to produce a quality banner and fourth item which continues to develop my underlying theme of cleaning, polishing and working with typography.

Week Five - Session One
For today's class, we had been told that we were going to have a class critique/viewing at 9am. For this, we had been asked to bring along a developed poster, printed in full-scale A2 size, as well as a developed brochure.
It's super helpful printing the poster in full size, or tiling two A3's together, because it makes it so much easier to make sure the type is all the right size, gives you a better idea of the proportions of everything, and makes it easier to see how the overall hierarchy and visual flow works. I printed mine in A2, and got some helpful critique from both Donald and Lee.
They said to drop the information text size by one point, and then increase the bolded information text by one point to slightly emphasise the hierarchy. Along with that, they made the comment that it was slightly subdued, and nothing really pops from the poster. With that being said, I think I will look at using a brighter blue, rather than the dull light blue, and also bringing in some more black, possibly in the larger text reading 'micro'. I didn't realise there was a feature on Photoshop which I can use to create the halftone texture, so I'm going to use that rather than finding a texture to replicate this. The texture appeared as if it were a whole bunch of hexagons, so I need to change this too.
I completely agree with their feedback, and will use this as I develop the poster. Also, I have used the same basic diagonal line in each of my developments, so I might experiment with having the line go a different way in order to slightly alter the visual flow of the page.

Along with the poster, I presented my brochure spreads. On each of the spreads, I have a blue line run through the page, varying in direction each time. I had some comments about how it would be quite cool if I made the line carry through the whole page, even while changing direction at each page fold. On each of the pages, I also had a progression of the 'polishing' idea, using illustrations of surgeons etc, as well as a photo of the speaker and a piece of their work. I had the feedback to remove either the photo of the speaker or the piece of their work, so that there aren't too many elements competing on the page.
They quite liked my brochure cover page, how it isn't an exact replica of the illustrations inside the brochure and on my poster, it is more subtle, with just a whole bunch of tools which can be used for crafting objects. Donald suggested to try and sneak in a tint of blue like I have in my poster, to relate it even more.
My brochure can be seen in my physical workbook. I have made a mock-up prototype of it, and written my self-critiques onto each page, so I know what to develop.

By Friday, we just need to keep working on and developing these, as well as thinking about our Banners and fourth item. I haven't really brainstormed yet as to what I want my fourth item to be, although I want to make it a clever option in relation to my topic and theme. For the banners, I would like to do some large scale thing around the campus somewhere, potentially to assist with wayfinding to the conference.
I really like how this is coming along, and I'm excited to see how it develops over the course of the next week and a half before hand-in. I enjoy creating these transmedia sets, and trying to create similarities across each media while progressing and developing the theme.

Poster Development - Independent Study
Today I was working on developing my poster, trying to experiment with scale and composition to create a more interesting layout. I came up with quite a few different compositions, and I have attached a couple of examples below:
I'll continue working on my brochure until Tuesday's critique, so that it's more refined and I can get feedback on a more polished design.
Friday, 20 May 2016
Week Four - Session Two
During the lesson today, we continued to work on our projects during studio time. Both Lee and Donald moved around the class giving 1 on 1 critiques to each person, on their brochure and poster.
For the most part of this lesson, I just worked on developing my brochure, and showed Lee my work once she got around to me. It was towards the end of a class, and there were still quite a few people waiting to be seen, so it was just a very quick critique session. Basically I was told to keep developing it as I have been, and making sure to keep the style across all the whole transmedia set. Lee also said to try making the tools on the front cover into spelling 'micro.'
I'll give this a go over the course of the next few days, so that it's ready for the critique on Tuesday. We are having a class critique and are required to bring along a developed brochure, as well as a developed poster.

Week Four - Session One
Over the weekend, I mocked up a brochure for my design conference 'micro'. I only really mocked up the speaker spreads properly, and just placed the text into the intro pages etc.
Today in class, I continued working on the brochure, and actually laying our and crafting the other pages (intro, timetable etc).
I spoke with Donald towards the end of the class, and he quite liked the layout. However, he said the diagonal line gets a bit repetitive, and said that since I've got quite unique stylistic approach, there isn't really any restrictions, and to take this and run with it, and use the freedom it gives me to really push my design.
By Friday's class, I'll develop my brochure further, and have it printed so that I can get some more valuable critique, which will allow me to continue developing it over the weekend. The further refined it is by each class, then the more polished it will be by the end of the project.

Illustration Development and Progression
Yesterday in class, as well as this morning, I was developing my illustrations of the people manipulating, cleaning and dissecting the typography, so that I could chuck them into my brochure. I have attached an image below with each of the images so far.
Some of them aren't full body, although that doesn't matter as I'm layering the speakers photo on top of each photo, so it's going to cover that particular area (particularly in reference to the image of a man dusting the 'c').

Week Three - Session Two
Since last class, I just continued working on my poster. During class today, we had some studio time to continue working on our projects and refining our posters. Towards the end of class, we were asked to prepare a basic brochure for next week. They said to just chuck all of the body copy and imagery in, and then start crafting it from there.
I'm looking forward to seeing how I can get my brochure to look. I feel like the style I've chosen for my poster gives me a lot of freedom for the brochure, which I'm looking forward to. I also always enjoy trying to make a whole suite of things, keeping everything to a similar style while making sure the concept develops and progressed throughout, without getting boring and repetitive.
By Tuesday, I'm hoping to have come up with a few more illustrations and different imagery of type being crafted or manipulate, and also a basic brochure concept that I can get some feedback on. I've got some good ideas on how I'm going to lay it out so it will be good to see how it turns out.

Interim Presentation
Today was our interim presentation, where we got to put up 2 of our concepts, and have them critiqued as everyone walked around the class. It was a good method of an interim, as everyone sat a piece of paper next to their posters, and then we all walked around and wrote some feedback on each poster. That way, it ensured that everyone got some helpful feedback in order to help them develop their posters.
I had decided to call my conference 'micro'. Each of my posters had different taglines depending on their imagery/concept. For example, ones with type being polished had "A typographic conference polished to perfection", while dissection ones had "A typographic conference with a cutting edge".
For the presentation, I had mocked up 7 different basic concepts, and had to narrow them down to 2. I quickly asked a few of the people I was sitting with which ones they thought I should present. They suggested the surgeon concept, and my other concept with the magnifying glass (can be seen attached at the bottom of this post).
The interim took about an hour, and I had some valuable feedback written about each of my posters. However, Lee came around for the 1 on 1 session during the latter stages of the class, and I thought I better show her my other concepts to see if they were really my best. As there was one that I thought was better, and she had liked the thumbnail sketch of it last week, so I thought I'd show her the digital version.
I showed her it, and she really liked it, and said it was better than the other two I had put forward, and if I had of presented that one, it would have "been a winner". The poster is the one of the man hosing down the type, as if it's his car. It's definitely a lot more interesting and engaging for the viewer, and there is a bit of humour in it.
Now that I've decided I'm going to use this poster to develop, I'm going to take into consideration about what Donald had said last week, about making it into a series. I'm going to look at different ways of people manipulating, fixing, cleaning and polishing type, that I can put into my brochure. I'd like to use the surgeon idea, although in this new style I'm going to use, rather than an illustration. I'd like to have different people doing various things to the type, each one letter at a time, and have it spell out 'micro' (my conference name) throughout the brochure. For example, 'm' on one page, 'i' on the next etc...
By next class, we just need to keep defining our conference, fleshing it out, and developing our idea. I have attached all of my initial interim posters below. They can also be seen in my physical workbook.
