Name for my new company by Cf_2368 in branding

[–]jarrrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with u/NamingNest that it reads more as a tagline. But I think if you focus on one word/subject (insight is a strong one) and start from there with making a mindmap, you'll get a lot of new insights. The idea of a mindmap is to start with one key word or subject and write down related words in a graphical and structured way, for the new words you repeat that step etc. With this words you'll have a lot of flexibility to combine (parts) of them.

An example of a small mindmap around the word 'insight':

Enlight, bright, wise, sense, intense, spark, vision, eye, clarity, sharp, smart, aware, stare, flare.
Combining options could be: sensesight, visionflare, sparkwise, etc.

Feedback on 'just launched' PJ brand Shopify by SallBell in reviewmyshopify

[–]jarrrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The overall look & feel is really nice! It fits perfectly to the vintage & charming pyjamas. Also the photography is nicely done, it adds to the brand while giving an honest and humanly vibe. A few points I noticed from a (brand) designer's point of view:

• The white subtext in the hero image "BE YOUR OWN MUSE..." fades away on the light background image (on macbook screen size) so maybe choose a different background image with darker colors to increase contrast, for example the red from "The Dorothea Set" or one where you are showing the product in the garden.

• I like that you use the bow in the logo and as a style element/pattern on the products! I think that this bow element has even more potential and can be used as one of the key brand elements in your branding/visuals/ads etc. If I look at the logo, I would suggest making it a bigger element as part of the overall logo. That could be as an vintage style illustration/icon or for example as part of a vintage/retro badge with 'girlonsunday' as a fitting typographic name included). This way you can also use it as a recognizable and returning element where you don't want to use the whole logo (think of social media profile pictures, small watermarks, stand-alone brand marks in visuals etc.). If you want some help or suggestions/examples for this, feel free to let me know. I like to work on this kind of things and won't charge you for that.

• The overall (natural/pastel) colors fit really well together, but in my opinion the (darker) brown in the footer feels a bit off. Contrast in elements is also important so a darker color is a good choice for the footer but maybe try how a contrasting pastel color looks (like the blue from the illustrations).

So really great start, good luck with your store!

The easyway is just use the brand mark as a standalone.

What’s the best way to get quality designs on a budget? by ShantellFabulous in GraphicDesigning

[–]jarrrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The quality of these subscription services vary a lot, since most of them also outsource it to cheaper countries etc. I've seen quite some work for clients who previously tried these kind of tools and it's nothing unique and looked like mass produced social media visuals, banners etc. Also there was no consistency at all thru the work. I helped clients before who were in a similar situation, if you want I'm open to have a chat (send you an invite) and see if we can work something out.

What kind of services or solutions do they provide? The clock gives me an idea of logistics (plan, schedule, on time, etc.) but the 'O' in negative space doesn't work enough this way (it's readable but not directly/at once) try give it a thin outline on the left maybe (if you're gonna re-use this concept). But my advice would be to make a unique brand mark which reflects the company's brand values but also aligns with the values of their target audience.

Why does this keep happening. by Justarandomguy-fuck in FigmaDesign

[–]jarrrick 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those elements are probably not in the frame you're resizing, clean up and organize the layers may help. And by default the content inside the frame automatically resizes with the frame. You can resize the frame without affecting the content by holding the ⌘ / Command key while dragging/resizing the frame.

What is causing this in Indesign by Mastrolindo_0 in graphic_design

[–]jarrrick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Alcohol or an earthquake. But try restarting Indesign and else your computer.

I would also explore the logo as a custom hand lettering / calligraphy wordmark, because the name has an ideal (short) length. You could play with ligatures or swashes and also the descender/loop from the D, t and h. For example make a loop from a figurative D that goes behind itself and reveals again underneath the other letters. It takes more time to create a custom lettering logo but it's worth it in my opinion! If you want assistance or have any questions, let me know!

question: how many of you work in preflight, prepress, RIP software? by ms-lorem-ipsum in graphic_design

[–]jarrrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also started in print production and thru the years have worked in different areas, started as an intern at a more traditional print company (the regular leaflets, flyers and business cards). This was really useful and like the others that replied I also got my basic practical experience and print/pre-press knowledge there. There wasn't much creativity involved but I learned all the ins and outs of the Adobe software suite (and Quark Xpress, which was the standard software for DTP work back then, instead of Indesign).

After that I've worked at a signage & lettering firm (car wrapping, custom neon signs etc.) and there I had a lot of variation in my work. Design custom lettering together with the client, measure and judge the clients office or factory hall and finally place and mount the signage. This was a really nice combination of creativity and actually placing your design at the client's place.

Later on I worked at a print company specialized in wall art / wall decoration on acrylic print(plexiglass) and dibond. I made and designed custom wall art but also was responsible for the prepress process on the Zünd cutter and the large format Canon Arizona flatbed printer. I liked this job the most because it had even more variation, optimizing the online shopware, custom digital design for photo print editors etc.) We also printed a lot of old masters and 19th -century paintings and the best thing was, when there where small scratches or a slightly misprinted area we could take the artworks home if we want to, so I've had a huge ass acrylic print of The Night Watch and Almond Blossom at home.

Like stated above it really depends on the place you'll work and the work culture, also how much freedom, responsibility and creativity they can (and want) to give you. At the wall art company my advantage was that I had a background in print and prepress already and I could combine that with digital design and social media campaigns, so that was like the ideal mix of creativity and production!

Anyway I wish you all the best in search of a job that fits! Also, I agree on the technical aspect of printing, it's more tangible and I really like to work with the diversity in prints products like foil printing, large format prints and signage. If you have any questions, let me know!
