LECTURES

Lectures compiled in Task 1.


INSTRUCTIONS

   
For Task 3, we will need to synthesise the knowledge gained in Task 1 & 2 to develop a presentation deck for the campaign. Students are to execute the visual identity and design applications for the proposed campaign. 

The Brand Campaign should be applied for both online and offline experiences. Design at least four online touchpoints (website, social media, and introduction video are compulsory) as well as at least four offline touch points (packaging is compulsory). 

Task 3: Campaign Branding

I first started with a few sketches and digitalize the logo in Adobe Illlustrator.

Billboard poster - candy change to grey shade to be more residing component to help to carry n direct where to read 

Wayfinding logo not recommend, logo should be same throughout 

Combine the wayfinding draft

Display boxes can try use same color so can massproduce, flavour is aldy obvious with packaging

Newsletter 1st ver flow is better, 2nd was too busy.

3rd draft, when try out info is too big, try to match that across

Overall use of colours is better 

Scrolling should be not confusing, can try with border, always look at the prototyoe screen test test

Text, other things should complements the text. 

Socials - focus on brand message, target marget, straight forward but friendly kind of Design. 

Website some is so huge, reduce size!! Can add paper brown Colours. Only certain parts hv certain colours

Diff vibe for diff page. Hv some variations.

Adjust pt. size typeface

Week 14
-

solidify all the touchpoints

packaging was ok aldy, pop up with this basic paper bg ok, merchandise will leave it for you to work on it ya, keyring n sticker quite ok? wayfinding ok, juzzzz

billboard- mockup will limit your design, can actually go and take the mockup pic yourself

newsletter n website can ultise white background instead of yellow.  header typeface leading, dont use the same way as the logotype, as logo should be always be outstanding.

social media - the teaser post was post twice, does not really add up to the overall texture also, should be ultise wisely for the social media post, should have all post conveying message?? 

Promovideo, dont add overlap text over the first video footage.  


Reflections

Experience
-

In Task 3 of the Eudewell project, we needed to create eight touchpoints for our rebranding campaign. Initially, in Task 2, I identified numerous elements for the campaign but did not manage to complete all of them. I realized that I struggled with time management, particularly when trying to balance the development of all eight touchpoints while also dedicating considerable time to finalizing the logo and packaging design.

Observation
-

Through my observations, I noted the necessity for a consistent brand campaign and the importance of determining the brand strategy early in the process. Consistency across all touchpoints ensures that the brand message is clear and cohesive, making it easier for customers to connect with and trust the brand.

Findings
-

My findings highlighted that successful campaign branding requires much more thought and is not as easy as it might initially seem. A well-thought-out strategy is crucial and plays a significant role in the campaign's success. The strategic planning behind the branding efforts is vital for ensuring all elements work together harmoniously to convey the intended message and achieve the desired impact.
