Here is a classic & bolts of year last with some examples on how to (and how not) Photo cards design. Enjoy this blast from the past!
In the former community newsletters, I have given you advice of the designer to create Photo Cards and Top five tips for the design of Photo Cards. Mindy (GCU administrator) gave a few important guidelines in the Forum. Today, we will talk about how to design maps Photo that will attract the attention of buyers and how to fix parts map to transform for sale gold.
All examples of map "Before" were actually acceptable according to the standards of the GCU - Yes, I checked. However, from a business point of view, they were not so great. With some tweaking, however, the bar has been raised, as the appeal. I expect card drawings as examples of "the after" will be done.
Obtain, shall we? Take a look at this first example:
In the before picture, you will see that the design itself is very well... If it is just a normal Halloween card. As a Photo card Halloween, it works really. Why? Because he looks exactly like what it is: an existing map with a couple of tiny photos mobilize on it. And it seems unfinished because the check boxes in the photo is not a border around them. The focus on design rather than photographs of the buyer. In the image from, you see that the focus has been moved so photos Centre held with elements of design slightly interacting with photos - a very sharp composition. It will be successful? Well, we sold a short time after cards Photo became public, so I would say "Yes."
Skip to example number two...
In the image of the front once more has been emphasis on the design element - in this case, the skeleton - with negligible photo, apparently almost an afterthought area. You can see where I was going with the idea, but lacks execution. Let us now consider the image of "the after". Although the actual photo area is not that much larger than before, giving him a somewhat irregular framework which incorporates the color on the new text of the card front and allowing the skeleton to interact with the photo, the composition is much improved. The Visual joke now works much better!
And the last example...
The idea of having a black giant, hairy spiders, scary threatening the person on the photo are quite good, but in the image "Before", it doesn't have much impact. The area of the photo is too small, and there is no boundary to define the area and to give a crisp edge. The image of "the after", I've not changed position of the area in the photo, but I blew it and in fact a circle and given a decisive border. Voila! The idea of this new translation is much better, and I allowed the spider to interact more with the photo to give it more oomph.
If there you have it - three before and after the greeting card of examples of Photo card design errors and how to fix them. I tend to learn better with Visual information, so I hope that this article will help you point towards models of success.
