Final Culminating Assignment – Gum Package

Gum Template

Let’s Bubble – Front Cover

Let’s Bubble – Back Cover

a) What is the feeling you wanted your gum
package to portray? How did you achieve this?
I wanted my gum package to have a fun and laid back look. While I was acheiving this, it started to turn out to be more of a “dirty” gum. This was a result in the bubbly pink colour and the white bubbles all over the gum package.

b) Who are you targeting your gum to? How did
you achieve this?
I am targeting my gum to teens of my age. Anywhere from 12-17. I did this by the very catchy title, “Let’s Bubble” because many teens are interested in that and therefore attracting them more to the product.

c) What area in your design did you use Photoshop?
I used photoshop to create the bind part of the gum package. I made a star and put it in the center of the side of the gum package.

d) More marks are given to designs that are
custom created and not just taken from free
vectors or free stock photography. What part of your gum
package did you custom design?

EVERYTHING! I custom designed every part of this package EXCEPT: the barcode, the nutrition facts, and the ingrediants. All of the little tiny white bubbles made were from my own hands and mouse. And my eyes still hurt!

Assignment #3 – Peace Week Poster

This is my Peace Week Poster. Through the duration of making this poster I felt very frustrated and upset. The reason is because while I made this poster I realized how many females around the world suffer. I was frustrated because I feel helpless in saving these women from suicide, and self-dictruction. However, given a chance to make a poster like this has been an eye opener for me because I can see that something as simple as a poster is going to help. That if even one little girl sees this poster and gets the courage to stand up, that I have helped, and I have made a difference. If I took even the slighest weight off that little girls shoulders, than my existance is worth something.

PEACE <3

Questions And Answers:

a) What were you trying to express and
how did you achieve this?

I was trying to express self-anger and frustration. Yet also trying to achieve overcoming, and overpowerment of this anger. I did this by using vry dark colours in the background. I took pictures with dead roses. I also put words such as, Anger, Guilt, Fear, and Denial. The pictures showed different ideas. For example, holding the roses gently yet about to break them because of frustration yet being gentle becuase the roses are all people have left. The white rose in the middle shows the over coming of this dispear and shows the main goals in life. Such has, Equality, Peace, Family, Respect, and Dignity.

b) What filters did you use and where?
I used almost all of the filters. Most of them were used on the word in the middle of the rose so they would stand out. I used filters such as Burn, Luminosity, and Hard Light

c) What layer blending mode did you use and where?

d) What special brush did you use and where?
