Task 3 : Campaign Branding

For this task we started working on the proposed ideas of task 2 

The Campaign

Still Life 

Still-Life is a campaign that aims to elicit the viewer's emotions in order for them to communicate their feelings at the time the photographs were shot in their most natural state. This initiative aims to develop photography's communication powers because, even when we meet someone for the first time, photography may help us understand them better. The goal of this campaign is to demonstrate how one may communicate stories via her lens. Janice wishes to share with the rest of the world the lives of those she has met and learned from.

PROCESS


Logo Design

Design exploration and merchandise design

For this campaign I wanted to use a certain kind of photography with simple and minimal design that doesn't distract or take away too much from the photography.

After this I wasn't quite happy with how a few things turned out, such as the logo looking too similar to the rest of the design, Therefore, I wanted to bring a few changes to it. I started off with changing the headline typeface and just using Helvetica as body text.

After consulting with Ms. Lillian she made me understand that the previous design actually works a-lot better with the brand.  It is important to keep the logo looking like a logo instead of a headline. And even though the green is a nice touch, the orange works better. In addition to this, she also mentioned that it the date stamp idea i had originally was very good. One thing she liked about this design is the change of the font.

The finalised Idea was a combination of the both ideas I had. I brought back the time tamp as well as the old logo.

FEEDBACK

Week 9
General Feedback: -
Specific Feedback: The logo in itself works really well with the brand. In the poster make sure the logo presents itself as it is, instead of putting it in a decorative manner

Week 10
General Feedback: -
Specific Feedback: The progress so far is good. The choice of colours compliments the brand well

Week 11
General Feedback: Make sure that you work on this assignment as well as you are working on other modules. It is important that you work fast
Specific Feedback: I hope to see some progress on the promotional video. I like the layout of the website. Make sure that you have properly planned out the instagram layout.

Week 14
General Feedback: -
Specific Feedback: Too many changes are being brought to the design. although the designs are good, the overall aspect of the design you had before worked well with the campaign. Rethink some of the choices you've made and reconsider bringing back the old logo.



REFLECTION

Experience 
Overall, I was able to create a solid design at first, but I believe I overthought the design process a little too much. I believe I was torn between wanting to do one thing and another. It was a challenging procedure for me to reach a definitive conclusion because of this. And I believe that if I had done a few things differently, the outcome would have been better.

Observation
One thing I saw was that there were many design options that I liked, but I believe it is tough to distinguish between what I like and what is ideal for the brand. Next time, I suppose one thing I'd do is check at similar brands and see what the common denominator is, so that I don't let my opinions about the design take over.

Findings
I discovered that if a logo is merely set out there, it does not stick out. When creating something, it is critical to consider the placement and design of the logo. It should not look like a headline, but rather like a logo that reflects the brand. I also learned that making major adjustments at the last minute will not help me with the end product of a project.

Figure 1.56 - Further Reading- 2/12/2022


This article defines a brand campaign and explains how to distinguish between a brand and a campaign. A campaign is a public relations effort for a service or product. To create a brand campaign, avoid attempting to accelerate that change by investing too much money at the start of a campaign, understand your target audience, make it easy for consumers to understand the primary message, plan for multiple touch points, and ensure you have a consistent foundation of frequency building media, given that the goal of a brand campaign is usually to create awareness rather than to generate sales, and it is critical that you track the results of your campaign.
