I considered this to a relatively simple and open brief (being 'design a postcard for the college to encourage people to take our short courses). With that in mind I didn't want to invest too much of my time into the design when I have more pressing matters to attend to, so gave myself a day to make these.
I began by drawing out a few idea outlines before settling on one, from this choice I made four different designs. I asked several of my peers which they thought was best. Of these, two of the designs were frequently chosen so I pushed forward with those. I photocopied my outlines, enlarging them by 50%, and inked over them. After inks, I added colour in Photoshop and, being aware of the Leeds College of Art logo, used its outline as a way to frame the images. Finally I added the actual Leeds College of Art logo and several silhouettes to give the postcard more energy.
