The purpose of this assignment is to see the combination of colors. But first thing have to deal with is the content of the postcard.
At first I think about a concert with several kinds of musical instruments such as piano, guitar...I want to create a stream made of musical notes and the instruments will float on it, like the sketching below:
But I realize that it is extremely hard to create a stream like what I imagine. In addition, the appearance of so many musical notes makes the postcard very tangled. Hence, I tried the other idea.
For this idea, I just focus on piano performance. The musical note streams out the piano and become the chain of melody.
I sketch it on Illustrator:
My classmates comment that it's cute but the letter is not really standing out, I should do something to make it different from the musical notes. Hence, I change the font and add some the stars on it.
About the colors, I color 9 versions of the postcard by using Image adjustment of Photoshop:
The first three versions and the one at center are colored with the white background
The last three are with the background
I also try the two rest with gardient color.
I choose the one with NUS's color as my final design. It is simple, well contrasting and very suitable with NUS's logo. It creates a sense of identity.
