For my material research, since I did not keep my mentor artist lesson and went in a different direction I did 2 examples for 3 Lessons and there are also examples for the 3D projects as well but only reference images.

Lesson 1: Mood Boards

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lesson 2: Logo and iconography

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lesson 4: 1 page menu

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lesson 5: 3D package designs based on restaurant brand and style

When creating my final concept map I took inspiration from my learning segment, which is branding a new restaurant. I thought it would be fun to create my map based on a restaurant menu style.  When looking at all the lessons, they almost all connect to one another, and pieces from lessons should be used an applied to other portions. For the first 3 lessons I have my mentor artists (5 of them) as inspiration. Along with mentor artists I also am providing students with literature that can be used for inspiration as well.

Overall student will take inspiration from a food/brand they find comfort in or find within their community. They will create mood boards based on the food and find one that will be the inspiration for their new restaurant that they want to see in their community or one that can live in their community.  They will build the brand from the start with a logo/ icon, to choosing typefaces and then merging everything together to create a menu for the restaurant. Finally, they will build a 3-D package that will be their restaurants to go “bag”, which can be any design they want.

 

 

This learning segment is based on my love for graphic design and how brands can influence how we feel and comfort us. This brainstorm map has 5 lessons that start with the creative process of a mood board, then into logo design/iconography, and followed by typography. These first 3 lessons build each portion of what starts to create a brand, and in this case a new restaurant that was inspired by food. After learning these fundamentals students will merge concepts together to create a menu design for their restaurant. Finally, to end the segment they will make 3-D packaging based on their brand for the restaurants to go bags, but the design is up to them. It can be a bag, box, container or possibly an Eco-friendly option
