Brief 1 Presentation | iMazing | Feedback

The critics/feedback from Damian (and Anne) regarding the presentation were helpful and we have space to improve towards our next presentation.
What we should focus on is the connections between certain things and to present with a wow factor. The question why should be asked and answered within.

Brief 1 Presentation | iMazing | 20.10.08

We prepared our presentation and discussed each everyones role within. The presentation layout/style was influenced by Jonathan Barnbrook and his talk given at the Epsom playhouse.
We talked about our outfit for our presentation, since it is the first impression we give our audience and decided to wear funeral clothes. For an icebreaker we had a 'funny' funeral video to bridge the gap:



We wanted to involve a different media and reflect our last 3 weeks using a good structure.
Some slides of our presentation:

iDIE | out now!

iDIE | team/project analysis


iDIE | extended media

so what else are we planning with iDIE?

iDIE | Frontcover

Final Cover:



After reworking again and again, iMazing decided to have a blk/white front cover and the use of the negative space to emphasize the logo itself.



Basic research here was based on magazines like meg-art, eye, source, kibosh etc.

Creating a front cover for the magazine we were working on for the last three weeks was a quite demanding task. We as a group decided first of all it should be simple, distinctive and capable to reflect the theme of DEATH in an appropriate way.

iDIE | 7th spread | Outro

Final Outro spread:





His work is defined by use of only few colours and sharp text. This inspired me to start with a few drafts. I had the idea of an open door by use of typography and with a one coloured simple background.




Here again the person who came into my mind was Saul Bass when I thought of intro's in general. SAUL BASS (1920-1996) was not only one of the great graphic designers of the mid-20th century but the undisputed master of film title design thanks to his collaborations with Alfred Hitchcock, Otto Preminger and Martin Scorsese.
