FINAL PACKAGING!

Here is the final design of my packaging. I added the cartoon drawing of BILL to the front, top and bottom of the box and think it looks much better than the silhouetted version. I also left the drawing white to show that people wont know which colour they get until they open it.

Final poster - Time to print

My A2 posters came today. Yay! I was very pleased with how they turned out. Luckily there was no pixelation on the final posters and I am glad that I can use them in my final show at the docks.

Earlier this morning I spoke to Chris and Jake for the last time about my packaging before printing them all out. They were very pleased with how it turned out but were still not sure about the silhouetted image on the front. They felt that it made the viewer concentrate on that part of the packaging too much, and drew peoples' eyes away from the other patterns, images and the logo. As a result of this I drew a line drawing of BILL and made it look very cartoon-ish, like existing designer toy packaging such as Smorkin' Labbits.











Here is the cartoon styled drawing of my toy. I am pleased with how it turned out in the end as it took quite a long time to make it look good enough to be put on my final packaging. Now all I have to do it put it onto the packaging.

More book work...

Not long now until my final day! I have to make sure that I get everything finished in time so today I spent my time finishing any book work and documenting my changes to my posters and packaging.
