The J2O brief was a lot longer and more difficult then
I could ever imagined. The only reason it was so hard is because I left it for
so long. Rather than developing and finishing the design when I still caught up
in the process. Now I see this brief with some hatred. At the beginning I
really enjoyed working with the colour scheme and totally changing what J2O
looked like. Although this wasn't really in the brief. I definitely strayed
away from the brief because I thought it wasn't that good. The fact you had to
keep the logo and that green really annoyed me, I think I let this get to me
too much. I should have jut read that, then see what else there was to do.
There was still the whole background and colour scheme of that i could work
with. Having said that, I think I have given J2O an appropriate redesign, the
logo is still obviously J2O, the colour green is still there but just more
subtle. I like what I have designed but think I should of thought about it
more, such as the audience. The whole point to this brief was to get more 20-30
year olds drinking J2O and I'm not sure the new design answers that. It may
encourage more female drinkers because the colours are similar to summer
drinks. Doing this brief has taught me to be very careful when reading and
choosing a brief. If I had realised how restricted it was I probably wouldn't
have chosen it. I’m also disappointed in the way the box has come out, I
wanted to laminate it so that the card wouldn’t fray when being cut, but the laminator
wasn’t working. Now there is a lowering the quality of the finish. That
normally is the case with my work. Overall with this brief I am glad it is over
and I am slightly happy with the outcome.
