Finished Website

Massive thankyou to Glenn, who has spent the last few weeks making the Flash program for our website to work around.
When you make a flash website, its hard to split the work due to it being a one file piece of work, so Glenn took the drive on this and went for it.
Using the images of everyone I had taken, he has made a really well laid out Flash program to put onto our website.

The two of us then went through the trouble of hosting.
Most host sites these days claim to be 'easy to use'.
Well from our experience this is definately not the case!

But we did prevail.
We got there in the end, and it is now hosted and live on the web.

The address is:

sdi for Sustainable Design & Innovation and underground for the Underground theme.

Here are some screenshots of the website:

Porfolio Design

Here is my Portfolio Design.
Still tieing in with my other designs, it follows the same layout as my CV and my Business card.
As you can see, the front page is a simple page and just shows a few of my details.
Below this image is a couple of the inner page designs to show how I have laid these out.
I didn't want to crowd the page with information, so I went for light writing and bold imagery of my work.

Business Card Design

Here is my Business Card Design. It follows the same concept as my CV, only with much more minimal information. I like the way my logo can be used as one whole side to the business card and doesn't over power the whole design.

CV Design

This is the chosen design I have for my CV.
As you can see, its a long way from my old CV in terms of design.
It features the same information as my previous CV, but in a better format, an impressive layout, and contains my branding.
I think the whole page flows well and looks really professional. It's not cluttered and is easy to read and I would hope emplyers would be impressed by the design.

My CV

My Cv has always been the most boring document on the earth.
I have never really gotten around to brighteneing it up.
I know the content is exactly what I want, but the layout definately doesnt represent me as a designer.
I'm looking forward to changing this using my Personal branding.
here is my CV in its current state:

Business Card Ideas...

Here are some Business Card Ideas I have come up with based around my Logo.

Final Logo

Here is my Final Logo Design for my Personal Branding.
I combined multiple ideas I had to create this idea.
The logo contains my initials SB, which will hopefully be recognisable as my logo in time.
I went for a simple crisp approach and a font to coincide with this.
I also added a watermark over the logo that says sambrazierdesign in a repetitive manner.
I'm really happy with how my logo has turned out, I look forward to using it in more of my work.

My Logo Ideas

To get started on my Personal Branding, I first tried to come up with some logo ideas.
I started sketching to get a basic feel for how I want my logo to go.

I have had an idea for a personal logo for a few years now but have never put it into action.
I have always wanted a simple smooth logo that utilizes my initials as the main body of the logo.

Self Branding

Another part of this module is to create our own Personal Branding.
This means creating a logo to represent myself, and to make my personal items coincide with this, including my CV, a Business Card and a Portfolio.
I'm really looking forward to this part of this module, as this is more my sort of work, and I think it will be interesting to establish a design for myself.
