Catalogue

The above are two catalogues I made at http://issuu.com/explore. I simply made my catalogues on power point and then uploaded them on the web site. This enables you to post on Facebook etc.


Your catalogue is to bring your entire year together. It is also a platform to showcase you as a designer.
This can be a powerful tool for marketing, sharing your work and developing your brand. 

In assessing your catalogue, your moderators will look at the following:
  • Clarity (is there a logical 'clear story' through the pages?)
  • Involvement (what is the level of enthusiasm?)
  • Aesthetic (what is the level of personal expression/signature?)
  • Finish (level of professionalism)

Peer Case Study Feedback


  • Check your blogs after you have posted. Some times images or script doesn't publish properly.
  • Use spell check and check your grammar.
  • Make rough draughts, rewrite them. Rewrite the rewrite. Repeat this until your writing flows.
  • Ask a peer to go over your writing and give you feedback. Listen to their feedback and rewrite.
  • Follow the guidelines of the brief.
  • Illustrate the points you are making by referring to images of actual pieces. This is the most important aspect of your writing. Describe and analyse pieces in-depth. You do this by describing techniques, use of materials, aesthetic principles and elements; how the designer has employed these to express their approach and philosophy. 
  • Point out evidence of their inspiration and references.
