Banner 2

I was then told to do another banner, this time to purely promote the holiday.
I was given a list of details and information to include;
The date of holiday
The price
The destination
What they get for the price
Contact details
and our name, Leeds Met Snowsports

So i threw a few ideas around, this b
eing pretty easy and quick as i had already pretty much made one of these, (the flyer) so it was making th
at look better really! and this time i had more space to play with as the banner is going to be rather nice'n'big!


I made a few various designs, i wasnt sure if it looked better with or without the bright cmy, hmmmm after some thought and comparing the designs against each other i got it down to 2 designs...


Im pretty much torn between them at this moment in time, so i will just show them to the committee and take a vote on which one to use!


Banner 1

I was then told to design a banner to promote the club, this banner being  purely to let people know who we are, specifically when we travel the country in competitions and what not, i wasnt given much direction so it was open for me to do what i pleased! 
I wanted to keep it simple but keep it with the reoccurring style of colour etc. The main thing i thought was to definitely use purple, because the hoodys will be purple so essentially that is what we are for the year to all the o
ther uni teams, the ones in the purple hoodys is leeds met!
So i made this...  



Its going to look good.

Poster/flyer

The next thing i had to design was a poster and a flyer to promote the club and to advertise the holiday, which is really the biggest selling point of the club!
I wasnt really sure of what we (we being the committee) wanted to be put on the poster or the flyer, so i got the president of the committee to come round and pretty much direct me what he wanted on it and i made it look all visibly nice which is kinda like the real world, so it was a good experience and i quite enjoyed it! Anyway, with this design process i didnt end
 up with a illustrator file with numerous designs on, i literally just had one and this was it...



So here it is, i like it and so did the president so i did good. The only problem we did have is that we didnt really know if this should be used for the flyer and the poster, the difference being that the flyer would just be smaller! So as far i know, thats whats happening! 


Hoody

After talking cost quotes, quantity and colour choices with several different companies i now need to start sending off the actual designs, 

This was the first design i sent of to the company, i really likes it i does! However i shortly got back an email saying that the design was not possible as they were unable to print over the hoody pocket, which had actually come to mind. Anyway i emailed back with the query of printing on the side of the hoody, so it not being over the pocket, as well as this i sent of the design below as an alternative!  




Final Logo

At the moment, i kind of have two logos on my hands, one original logo with the cmyk colour scheme which has been used so far for the website and facebook page etc! Then the other black and white which i have used mainly on the hoodys, the reason for this being, well firstly cost restrictions as obviously cmyk=4 colours, its gonna raise the price of the hoodys and i think it looks better in just black and white! 
Anyway the final logo which will be put on the hoodys and possibly on banners and some flyers is...

Leeds Met Snowsports, Hoody

After talking to the committee members we came to the decision of having a purple hoody with a black&white colour designs, this all dependent on the cost of colours however. 
So i went and firstly changed the colours of the design and then played with the layout of the logo and the type on the hoody itself, 






Here playing around with both the logo and type on the front together till the later two where i have put one on back and one on front. Out of the above i prefer the top left and middle right, with t shirts and hoodys in general i like designs which climb up the body, and the other i like as its nice and simple, easy to read and follow!



These designs above show 3 different layouts, of the front and back of the hoody. I dont have a fave out of them, however i think the type on the back vertically and the logo on the front left breast would be lovely jublee! This again needing the feedback and opinions of the rest of the committee.
