Stamp Layout Design Project

Client: School Project at BCIT

Date: November, 2016

Tools: Indesign, Photoshop, Illustrator

Description: The purpose of this project was to create a stamp booklet with a story. This was a group project done with a team of five people. When brainstorming ideas for this project we faced the challenge of choosing a theme that would allow each member of the team to contribute to the project. We created concept thumbnails for possible project ideas as a group. I then came up with the idea of creating hybrid animals. By doing this, we could each photoshop our own version of a hybrid animal, giving our creativity and skills full range. Once this was done, we put our ideas together and came up with roughs of possible layout ideas for our stamp booklet. We then chose two layout ideas and we created our final version based on them.

Process: Once we were handed the assignment we started brainstorming possible ideas for the project. Later we created concept thumbnails for our favourite ideas in order to choose the best option. Once we settled on the idea of hybrid monsters for a videogame theme, we started developing roughs for our project. After that we each created our own hybrid monster. Later, I created stories for each monster as part of our game's character profile. Finally, we put it all together using Photoshop, Indesign and Illustrator to create our stamp booklet. We ended up with two different booklets as requested.
