Dev.Log 4 – Greeting Card

The brief was to outline and design some greeting cards that can be sold online to your targetted audience. Each task included a small timeframe which was equally divided to allow us to create and come up with something through this frame.

  1. thought shower a concept – 10 mins
  2. decide on one that seems to have legs – 3 mins
  3. agree on your target audience 2 mins
  4. work individually on a draft of the onboarding sequence sketchbooks only – quantity, not quality – 45 mins
  5. compile the best ideas into one idea – work together on this 30 minutes ( you will need to come up with a way of combining ideas visually)
  6. chose a spokesperson to present your work to the class

Starting off with the simple shower concept, we brainstormed a couple of ideas on how and what we were planning on designing for our greetings card.

The brainstorming consisted of multiple ideas shared around, this includes the different types of greeting cards there are, what sort of colours we would be using in regards to our target audience, who our target audience are, whether they were to be male or female, does affect the colour scheme.

After bringing the sketch ideas together, we used our leftover time to adjust and create our greeting card through Adobe XD, as shown above. The design uses the same designs drawn for the final sketch, only we applied them to XD to further show the process of how our greeting card was supposed to look.
