WHERE EVERYTHING IS AT

hi guys!

BROCHURE ARTWORK

hey em - i like the work you did, i think we should wait for jesse to leave some feedback. perhaps maybe we could use that as the basis for adding some more stuff over the top? i was thinking some more abstracty brushstrokes... or else really drippy watercolour ... or some elements to relate the artwork back to design as for me, ... my main worry is keeping a consistent image and we need to make sure the artworks we produce are consistent with the look and feel of the company corporate style and image.

BUSINESS CARD

received your package this morning also em and it looks pretty spiffy buttttt - as i said in the text yesterday - we NEED TO USE THE PRESS for better quality embossing.

this means we absolutely need to have that woodblock cutout back in wollongong before monday in my opinion. and this is just my opinion right now, feel free to chuck out some extra opinions but i THINK that perhaps we need to find out if we can come in on sunday???? to do the woodblocking.

it really is probably important to have you back for that final leg of this on sunday i think. and again this is JUST WHAT I THINK and i havent consulted jesse.

we will be printing onto the businesscards with some spray robyn is providing us but i think we are doing that maybe tomorrow or something? i need to talk to jesse about that. perhaps it would be best to do the spray and the embossing together. and im worried robyn wont be there on sunday to let us into the print rooms in which case ideally we woulda wanted to do embossing and the printing of businescards tomorrow.

IMPORTANT WE SORT THIS OUT ASAP GUYS.

on another note, here is the cards i designed yesterday, have a geeeeezer emily! and oh i still really am not sold on the spacing of my name. but its so short its frustrating i think ill try kerning it.

BOOKLET

i took the document to the printery in unanderra this morning and they weren't very friendly and didn't seem to wanna listen to me explain wat we wanted which was infuriating but i made them listen to me anyway and repeated the instructions over and over and over even though he didn't appear to be listening to me.

stupid man.

he said we should be able to pick it up on friday around lunchtime though. 3 copies unbounded but with the holes put in so we can bind it ourselves with string.

the booklet my main concern is that the bleeed is not really on all the pages and unfortunately there was not much more i could do about it. i tried over and over and over and over and honeslty resaved that file a dozen times or more yesteryda and repackaged it times a million and in the end.. i dunno why its stubborn.

the print man said next time don't set them out as spreads cause that was why it hapened. soo im sorry if the print comes out dodgy around the edges. i tried my hardest to fix it when i notice the prob late last night.

WIP SHEETS

Apparenlty we also need to fill out a group document of WIP sheets. i did not know this. i thought we only needed to fill in our individual weekly time sheet.

do you guys know?

STILL TO BE DONE AND URGENT

• Business cards are my big worry now, embossing it needs to be done in the printrooms and not under bricks i really think if we are going to do it it needs to be done right.

• Brochure artwork, if we are to work on it anymore or just place that image in straight away, it needs to be done

• The indiviudal blurb - emily has done - i will do mine tonight. emilyif you make any changes to your blurb just forward them onto jesse or post them onto blog

• We have bought the material for the box and jesse is making it now i think we should apply the same spray transfer ink method to the box and print BLACKOUT on it

• we still need to find string to bind out books together and i suggest it should be sorta brown twiny stuff to match our recycled finish on most of our stuff e.g. business cards but thats jst an idea. wat do you guys think?

PLease write some replies and feedback on the stuff i brought up.... its really hard to get this all done and im getting just that lil bit stressed out now :p

and if you want a rapidshared copy of the thing i gave to the printers, i will upload on request after you reply everything else!!!!!
