Promotional Images

After brainstorming in my logbook I decided to use the photographs that I took and edited using photoshop and use them for business cards.




Above are the three business card ideas that I came up with. Ideally I would have made and got them printed double sided using moo.com but because the estimated delivery date too late for WOSAT when I looked it up to see if I would print my sticker labels, I decided I would just have to print and cut them out myself using white card or sticking the paper onto card (oh I could use my a4 sticker paper that I am using for my labels!)

These business cards were only quick ideas which I came up with after looking at other peoples business cards on the fine art and vis com courses. The first card idea is too dark and the text is very hard to read, I would either change the background image so it was brighter or use a different image so it was clearer too. I could also change the colour of the square that is behind the text too as well as altering the text colours.

The second card idea was better as it is more colourful and the text is easier to read too. I still think it needs improving though as the text is still slightly difficult to read. The last business card has improved slightly more as I decided to use a different image with more of the darker colours that make the text difficult to read located around the outside of the shaded square that the text is on. This card however still has flaws as the end of the text on each line is difficult to make out. The end of the website link, the email address and facebook.com are the most difficult to read. i think I will have to try different colours of text or even a different image for the background. Ideally I would also create business cards that are double sided, however I will have to rethink this idea as I am not too sure on how to create my cards, I will probably still want to use moo.com as well though.
