Infectious Wall Decal

I have taken part in the design contest to design a wall decal. I have created one called 'the secret forest' an illustration of a happy forest full of creatures and smiling trees.
















Infectious Creating profile

I have created a profile for infectious which will allow me to take part in the design challenges they set and get some of my work seen by other creatives. The profile also allows you to display your website.




Infectious

Infectious is an online community that allows you to create a profile and enter design competitions that they brief. This website also allows design for a range of products such as wall decals, skateboards, ipods and laptops. As i am wanting to produce illustration for product this should inform my practice.

Presentations Design strategies

Design Strategies presentation.

Feedback i received from Lorenzo and Joe Gilmore.

Level of analysis - Room for improvement, too many observations not enough objectives.
Organisation of material - Good, clear, well and organised.
Clarity of delivery - Good presentation which gained in confidence. Could speak louder.
Personal Reflection - You need to identify more context.

Additional feedback;
The ideas are there but promotion, production and market context al need to be clearly considered and understood to give credibility to the work.
Need to deliver more expression, enthusiasm and drive.
