This was a small project that partly initiated my self promotion phase of my design work. This was an exploration into the idea of being ‘box fresh’ as in a fresh designer to the industry, bust also eager to start working or ‘working straight out the box’.
I started off by getting a simple box and then wrapping it as if it was ready to be send off in the post, with parcel tape, string and relevant stickers. Mocking the box up as a parcel related the visual to what it was representing, the posting of my self promotion to a prospective design position.
I then photographed the box both closed up and ripped open. After leveling the image in Photoshop I then moved to InDesign to layout the type on the poster. It consisted of simple straight forward information, such as who I am and how to contact me.
