OUGD602: Creative Networks: Mike Mignola

We were briefed on an live opportunity to work with the college creating the promotional materials for this years Creative Networks cycle of events. Within this we were given 2 weeks to create a concept for the design direction and explore how this would work over an extended series. Working in a small group with Jack and Lo we were successful in winning the Bid to create the collateral for the creative networks events for 2016/2017. This was a good start to the PPP module engaging with the live opportunity that will see my work be exhibited within college and reach a large external audience as these high profile events draw in a range of creatives from a vast range of industry that provides perfect networking opportunity having work exhibited within these networking spaces. The fact the work is paid creates a more professional approach to this project simulating an industry focused process using the CCE team as a client mediating design decisions reinforcing this through client lead feedback to ensure an appropriate resolution.

The first event for Mike Mignola was really a learning process to understand how the creative networks events run, we created a series of 3 original posters using a consistent template which allowed the series to come together aesthetically et allowed each designer to take control of one design ensuring a shared workload and individual input to the project. Evaluating the first event established that the coming events needed more material as this felt empty within the space, the a3 posters needed reproducing in larger scales and more way finding should be considered for further events to create a more encompassing experience for the event.
