Evaluation for boards:
I am really disappointed with my boards, as they didn't print out how I imagined. On screen, the images looked good, not dark or pixelated.
If I has enough money, I would print out again to change this, and also, there are a few spaces that don't look right.. these could somehow be filled with a line or pattern...
Evaluation for Packaging:
I am really pleased with my idea, and I like how unusual the packaging is.
I think I managed to experiment with the packaging, adding the ring and labels to develop it, however, I'm not particularly happy with the quality.
I wasn't able to print the packaging at digital print, so I stuck the design onto card, which didn't work out as planned, as it didn't fold properly, creased a lot and the paper came off the card.
I wanted to work more with stock, to find a material that worked best. I also needed a stock that was 'weaker' than the ring around the packaging, to make sure it stayed closed.
There are a few things I would like to add to improve the package now I have made them:
- Score where the points will be folded down.
- Add cuts to the packaging, which will hold the rings in place.
- I wanted a 'window' in the package, so you can see inside, I didn't manage to add this in, but it would be good to experiment with this.
I wanted to make some packaging for the products that are going to be sold in multi-packs. I found the type of package I wanted, but I ran out of time to design and make one. I need to be more organised with my time and make a list of what i need to do- set targets!
