My dissertation is finished and currently in the process of being printed and bound. I have chosen a 'perfect bind' binding technique as this looks the most realistic to a magazine, plus I didn't feel the other options suited my brand or layout. The other options included spiral bound binding and book binding, neither of which were appropriate to me.
Regarding the design layout of my dissertation, I am not 100% happy with it. Originally I wanted to present my dissertation in the style of Company magazine as this naturally suits the brand and my entire campaign. However, I was steered away from this idea as I have used the Company layout for previous projects as it is something I like and find really fun to use in terms of layouts. Instead I was advised to think of a more professional and sophisticated approach but take elements from Company i.e. the fonts and colours. Therefore I based my design around the H&M magazine found here. I adapted the layout with use of colours and fonts used by Company but overall I am not as pleased with it as I would of been if I had laid it out like a magazine, however, I understand that this is what I have done for previous projects therefore I should do something different.
I am incredibly pleased with the writing side of my report and feel I have explained every detail of the app accordingly. I am also proud of my promotional content, although there is more to be produced I am pleased with what's gone in the dissertation.
This week I am going to take a break and relax after a few stressful weeks. Towards the end of the week I am going to begin planning what needs to go on the final board as well as what other promotion needs completing for the portfolio.
