Over the past couple of weeks I have been helping out where I can with the Flood Relief which is on this weekend at Paramore Park. I have been busy designing the posters and trying to get more sponsors on board as well as hanging some of the posters in other towns. Wagga Massive which was started by Duggie Pinnock a while back has put in so much work from sandbagging houses and businesses, ripping carpet out of houses to organising the event and getting some big names to come on board. Duggie has done so much and deserves a metal for having such a kind heart. Metal Mulisha will be attending the event along with some very well known motorbike riders such as Rob Adelberg, Jackson Strong, Truman Caroll, Luke Strojanovic, BMX Jake Condron & Crew & Mini FMX Team. The bands that have come on board are Angry Anderson,

Different File Formats

February 28, 2012

Being a Wagga Graphic Designer I know how confused some clients can get when working with designers and not knowing the different formats and lingo that designers speak. It is important to explain these things to your clients as they may not understand what you are talking about. Here are some file formats Graphic Designers work with: PDF:  (Portable Document Format) A PDF is a file format developed by Adobe Systems that can be universally downloaded and viewed by any computer that has the Adobe Acrobat plug-in. PDF's are favoured by Graphic Designers. EPS: (Encapsulated PostScript File) EPS is a vector format of your logo or artwork. It can be resized without losing image quality. Due to it's high quality, it is commonly used with print elements such as business cards or brochures. TIFF: (Tagged Image File Format) A TIFF is widely supported and works in almost any program. It produces a higher quality image than a

The Brief: Collecting information from the client is the most important step, you really need to understand your client very thoroughly before you get started. Some designers will ask a client to fill out a questionnaire to help them better understand what they would like. Research: After collecting the design brief and understanding it, next is getting to know your client's business, this is a crucial step in making a logo successful. Research includes reading on the industry itself, sometimes on it's history and on it's competitors. Visual Research: This is research into the actual logo style. This is where we seek out a look, a style, an approach or attitude, usually to attain a period or style that we are unfamiliar with, or to refresh ourselves with what is new or successful. A designer will usually look at logo's from similar businesses and critique them, this is where they might get inspiration from. Sketching &

A client has a simple question of 'How Much?' The client expects a simple answer - a dollar figure. The client then feels frustrated when they couldn't get an immediate answer. Another client did get a dollar figure from several graphic design firms and went with the cheapest - then was shocked that the actual cost ended up being much higher, after the firm had added all the pages and features the client wanted. Price estimates can be frustrating for both clients and graphic designers. Here are a few tips on how to get an estimate that is accurate and fair: 1. Be Specific: The price will depend on what you want. For example if you were looking at getting a booklet designed. How many pages? What size book? Need copyright? Need photo's? How many booklets do you need? It all depends on what you want and need. It is the same for a

Part of a Graphic Designers job is to typeset all text that is put into a design. Typography and typesetting combine an art and process that only really succeeds when invisible. In many respects, the layout of your book/magazine is comparable to the background music added to a film. It's primary duty is to make your text clear and accessible, but ideally it should also enhance the meaning with mood and style. Much creative energy goes into this art, which is the subject of passionate debate among it's practitioners. Typesetting includes making informed choices of typeface, point size and leading to enhance the readability and message. When it comes to designs with a lot of text I think typesetting is very important and is a must. Next time you are looking for a Graphic Designer make sure they know what typesetting is, just because their designs look cool and funky is

Second week back at work and I have not only been doing graphic design work, but I have also been blogging! I have been asked to keep a blog on 2 websites, Tresor Paris and Ozsocks!
