  Design and artwork for Buoys company Baccalao Salted Cod.  
 
  Design

Once the project was confirmed and brought on board, there was initially a brainstorming session – gaining ideas.
From these ideas initial pre-mac scamps thought about and produced on paper.
The more feasible ideas were then designed into formal concepts using an Apple Mac computer and presented to the customer on presentation board.
There were then concept changes requested by the customer and then after various changes a written or signed final approval from them.
The timescale of the total project was reviewed and various parts of the project were planned to meet critical path timescales.

Artwork

Commissioned photography was undertaken and the gaining of imagery from the customer.
High resolution image scanning took place with some image manipulation in Photoshop with and without filtering for different styling ideas.
Production and tracing of the titling using Freehand and further stylising in Photoshop.
The elements were then laid out in Quarkxpress on the Mac and prepared in CMYK ready for print as artwork.
A ‘flat net’ was produced using Quark and fold allowances specified for the printer as a guide.

Print and Finishing


The artwork was sent to the printer. A cromalin colour proof, taken from the printers films, was sent back for final checking.
The print stock was finally confirmed, and the project was printed, folded and finished.
The finished job was sent out direct for distribution.
