-Evaluation against Specification-


-Summary of Design Specification-

Design 1: The software in design 1 are good and high quality, but the time for making the design it’s not enough. Size is clear and good enough to read. So the target audience they can read clearly. The cost probably not good enough because,

the software and much of printing color it will be cost higher.

Design 2: All specification are good enough but one thing is the size was too smaller and the pictures might be not clear enough.

Design 3: The time to make the film is not enough so, I need to take a time any longer than the purpose time. Also the durability for the movie was longer so the

target audience will might be boring.


Design 4: For design four the size for the magazine was too small so it’s hard too read. The cost is not good because, the cost was expensive to print much of pages

with a coloring.

Design 5: All specifications are good and clear enough. The time to make it the film was enough.

Design 6: The software isn’t a good quality. Also had a problem with the size so the reader can’t read clearly.


-Final Chosen Design-My final design is design 5 which is making a film-short film. In this film I will put pictures, identity, alliteration of

music, and one best sing the band have. The background will be the picture of the band itself. The theme will be Rock n Roll

and mixed with Film Strip like a movie. The color: Black, Purple, White, Red, and Yellow. The font will be Blackmoor

LED, Bahaus 93, or Chalkduster.

-Evaluation of the Plan-Does my plan SMART?

My plan is SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, Fits the time frame). It tells you what exact the advertisement or software that I will be using to do certain steps. Also this is planned shows the

step by step and the gantt chart each steps to make.

Does the plan was in the logical steps?

My step by step is focused more on how does the advertisement in the software that I already choose will be create. Also the gantt chart is shows the very detailed of the time limited in the each steps of how I will start

first.

modifications to the design:

The plan I’ve used maybe I think will be modified and had some changes on the design, so I think I will to make more better and pick the best for the design that was match to the Band.

concluding the Evaluation of my step by step:

The step by step plan is very detailed because, it gives you an idea of how I will create each step by step is going to proceed.


-Create-


-Documented Evidence 1-

So I now I need to choose one of the best font in this different types of fonts



I choose the theme and the background that was match to the band.












-Evaluation-Investigation:

The goal of this project was to make, does the promotion band look and appear was influence what people think of us. Investigation is the first stage of the design cycle so it was the start of the whole project. I did interviews with my client to

first get an idea of what kind of software that was might be attract to the people. Then I trough researches, I did search information of how we make the best

promotion. Then I started research of promotion band using a video.

Design: The six different designs were the example of the design that will be chosen the best one. Then I evaluated all the designs using the specification points, which

helped me to choose the best and the most appropriate design in the end. I explained full and detailed information of why each designs did not meet or

does meet. So I think I did a good work for the design section as I evaluated all the designs based on the specification points and used this to chose the final

design and explain why it was chosen.


Plan: In this plan section, I planned out my time and the steps to follow when making the promotion. The step by step was very brief and it was explains the main steps when making the promotion but the gantt chart shows how I planned my time by showing how much time to spend for each step. So that I can make sure I am

using the time efficiently when I start to making my project. I also planned about what software did I used and why I did pick that software. So then I started

to making the project.

Create:I wrote a documented evidence for every week to show how much I have a

progressed, and what I am planing to get done for next class. If I had documented evidence for every lesson, for many days I would have the same

thing written because, the work I did was not much. This helped me to think back about if I have used my time efficiently, and if I am following the plan or not.

Evaluation:Overall, it does include evaluation of everything I have done and evaluates the whole project in general. It would have been better if the client feedback was also

included because, I can get opinion from the other peoples about my final product and reflect on it. Other that that, it is evaluated and shows that I am doing it by suggesting how to improve it next time and explaining what was good about my

work.


-Testing: Meeting Specifications-


-Successful Points of product-

I think the most successful part of this project is the investigation section, because I managed to finished the

product by the deadline, and when I was making a questions for interview the manager of the band. All the

process I went trough to make the design for each and looked trough it and compare, which one is the best one

which one does not detailed enough.


-Least Successful Points of product-

The least successful part of this project is the design section. Although I went trough the design specification points for every design to choose the most appropriate design, I could

have a better designs that are unique and different from the other design promotion that they have.


-Modifications/Improvements of product-

- Manage the time for the design and create section.- When making the sample design make sure that the design

doesn’t t00 complicated.


-The Impact to the Society-

This promotion of band will attract the people to joined the fans of the band, exactly when they see the video in the youtube. Also they might be able to comment the video, and if they liked it they would like to share the video to

their friends.


-The Impact on the Environment-

The promotion band does impact on the environment because, the promotion band doesn’t need the paper and doesn’t get

many cost for it. Because the promotion band video can be used to post in the youtube so it does the cost more cheaper, and the

people can easily see it from youtube.
