OUGD406 Brief 4, Printing & Refining















Once I had finalised my design it was important for me to think of
the production and layout on which it could be used. To calculate the
amount of notes needed for a term/year/month etc I worked out the
exact amount of weeks including time off as speaking from experience
I continue working throughout to keep stimulated and on schedule.

In total I have worked out using the studio calender that;

(NOT INCLUDING WEEKENDS, the reason I chose to not use weekends
in my design is because I felt it is key to keep a healthy balance between
work and relaxing providing you follow your notes your weekend could
easily be work and stress free if you work hard enough.)

In term 1/2 there are approx 15 weeks in total including holidays.
In term three there is 8 weeks.
In the college year that means approx 38 weeks

In term there will be 75 days
if notes and jokes/motivational quotes there will be in total 105 notes in the pad

In the school year there will be 190 days
In the note pad in total including jokes etc there will be 266 notes.

From my calculations I have decided that the lesser of the two is preferable
to keep it portable having the whole year on one pad could be daunting and
also heavy to carry around and nobody wants to be carrying round a giant
note pad.

For print I have fitted approximately 12 of the same days on the same sheet to save
printing cost. To create my note bad I have cut out every single day and piled them on
top Im not sure how I could improve this I could use the laser cutter or something
to reduce time but then again the laser cutter takes time to process and also leaves
marks from where it has singed the design to cut it.
