Changes and final design plans

The final design plan has been discussed in class. The prototype was already shown although I could have used cardboard instead. No matter, once I finish doing the graphical design for my standee, I will add in a donation box to my standee design.

 

Layout test part 2

More and more tinkering goes on. Of of the structures from the previous little experiment was taken and modified.

I also wanted to add some dynamic shapes to add some dynamism to the design. Still needs some fixes though after the folding test.

Layout test part 1

So far, some planned designs for the layout style for the standee were started but not finalized(I haven't put the messages yet). Here's the rough look:

 

Box attempt

So, after some struggle with settling my internship issues, I decided to relief for a while and then started to work on a rough layout of the standee from a deconstructed box.

 The orange one represents the child. More I'll update later.

New objectives

Apparently, my second version is fully rejected(despite the fact that it can stand). However, I was suggested a more interesting idea. The idea for a standee to be more of a standout(no pun intended) but at the same time can literally transform(cue the Transformers theme song!). Two challenges I need to face: 1. Design the packaging style of the standee and 2. Get the card-based material.

Standee and photos

So far, I had researched a bit about the standee. Of course I decided to search for free stock photos for a full replacement. I found some of them. For the messages, there are still some to be done though.

Proposal Presentation

So last Friday, I did a presentation for my proposal regarding ambient media. So, of course the topic was about kids with AIDS. My concept for this project was a stand of a child with messages regarding kids who suffer AIDS in a way that attracted the public in an empathy way.

Sketches

So here we go with the sketches of my plan. This one is about the stand of a child with messages.

Kids with AIDS

After some changes of the perspective of the topic, I decided to do some research about the lives of kids with AIDS. The research seemed to be troublesome but it was worth it. Kids who have been living with AIDS have been facing the horrors of poverty and neglect. Worse, the adults in their lives who could take care of them died due to HIV/AIDS. So, the main focus of the project this time is to bring awareness to the public about these unfortunate kids and bring some empathy. My proposed plan is a stand of a kid with messages that allows the public to possibly interact with it. As of the sketches, it will be done soon enough.

Hello, one who views this!

Greetings! This is the one I'll be using for Personal Project subject. Bear with me, despite the pain of going through the research for my likely campaign, I chose to do for the HIV/AIDS campaign.HIV, together with AIDS have killed a lot of people.It can be spread through sex without the use of condoms and bondage along with drug usage through shared needles. Awareness has been spread through ambient media before but of course most of the ones I saw involve condoms. So I thought wouldn't it be nice if I try my hand in bringing this to my plan for my ambient media project. For my project, I'm intending to do something close to the mirror poster as a concept. Except in my version, it would be a flip style poster with a bad one at the front but with a good advice beneath it like a flip calendar sort of poster. Well, one of my ideas for this one. There will be more of the stuff I thought to discuss.
