Website Research



The bright colours used to make people want to buy the product.
There is no actual colour scheme.
There is no same style type as there are all different type sizes and fonts.
It is easy to read as all the fonts used are a big font size.
The most attractive part of the website is the colours used.
There are images and text mostly in the centre of the page.            
There are no pictures in the side of the pages.
The images are not captioned.
It is easy to find my way around the website and the headlines are easily labelled.


What makes a good website?


The colours used in a website would make people want to buy the product more. If the pictures are in good quality people would want to buy the product. The font used in the website would be better if all the font is the same size but could us different colours. If there was a discount it should be on the main page cause that’s the page everyone goes to first. It should be easy to read, and the colours used for the background are bright to engage a person to see it.

Innovative layout designers research task






















8VO was a London-based graphic design firm formed in 1985 by Simon Johnston, Mark Holt and Hamish Muir. It closed in July 2001.

They created posters by using different font and colours. In the poster they created above intrigued me into there work. The reason why that is because of the way they use the different colours for different things they talk about. The colours they used were white, pink, green and yellow. They had a background which wasn’t bright or wasn’t too dark which also gave it an amazing look as the colours used for the text stood out more. This poster is talking about 8VO treating typography as the image of everything.

Good and bad logo research, plus opinion






















In my opinion I like the Instagram logo as the colours used are eye catching and it is also a simple logo. My second-best logo is the Google logo I say this because of the way they have used the different selection of colours they have. The use of Blue, Red, Yellow and green make it more eye catching. I personally think that the Snapchat logo is really plan I say this because it was a yellow background and then a ghost in front of It with no use of colour except the two in it already. I think the logo for pizza hut is too crowded with the text close to each other which a hat o top and a yellow line at the bottom.

Advertising – ‘Guinness’ + one other  

The Guinness adverts
The Guinness advert is showing how after 3 men have had a sip of beer in a pub how they go back in time. The men than move backwards out the bar and onto the streets. Than they walk backwards onto the road and their clothes have started to come ripped and the building start to deconstruct themselves. Than we get a sky view of how the city of London was looking like before it shows the present and then moves into the past. Than the 3 men are near an ice glacier. Then goes back in time and then there clothes go off and they are left in animal skin loincloth.The target audience for the Guinness advert is young adults from 22-30 or people who enjoy drinking Guinness.

On your Child's Life

This advert is about how 15 children died in house fires. The adverting company use a child to put a point through saying it could be anyone that can be in a housefire. The boy is put in a house which has been completely burnt to show the effect of a housefire. The boy at the start is using his hand to drag some fire ash which was on the kitchen worktop onto the floor. Than the boy is than speaking about how parents should make a promise and the promise was ‘I swear on my child’s life to test my smoke alarm on clock change day, to give my family the best chance of surviving a house fire’. The boy is put in clothes which look like they were in the fire to put a clearer picture through. Ten the boy asks the parents did you promise didn’t you in a worried tone and then says you can turn back time. Then the advertising company moves the camera around on the room which was in flames in a house fire.

Sony Advertising
In 2005 Sony created an advert called ‘bouncing balls’. Sony had used over two hundred and fifty thousand bouncy balls and it had taken them over two days to complete the videoing. The advert was filmed in San Francisco. When creating the advert, they had used no CGI (computer-generated imagery) as they wanted to create a different type of advert than other firms and wanted to be honest about there work. They had used over 24 different types of camera angles and positions. They also wanted to create this advert in one shot. Sony wanted to show that there tv are the best and no one can beat theres.

 Advert
 Making of

 In 2008 Sony made a second advert using 70,000 litres of paint, 622 bottle bombs, 330 steel pipes , 455 mortars , 57km of copper wire and 1,700 detonators. The advert was filmed on a old housing estate which was due to be demolished in Glasgow, Scotland. After creating the advert they did not need to clean it as it was due to be demolished. It had taken Sony over 4 months to plan that advert as they were afraid of the health and safety of people who would be involved. They were also worried about rain as it would effect the project and make them start again as rain would disturb the paint causing it to be more runny and then ruin everything on set.
