• I will design a brochure that is able to promote my client, ‘Infinite’, well and effectively. This product will be made throughout the second quarter following the five steps of the design cycle, which are investigation, design, plan, create and evaluation. Investigation, design, plan will be done before start making the product because these steps include all the essential information about the product, such as research about which material is the most appropriate, size, softwares to be used, time management, design of the product and certain specification points to follow to produce a good quality promotion. The create part will be done during the IT class times at school and also at home. When the promotion is made, the whole project, which also includes the five steps of the design cycle and the product, will be evaluated on certain specific points. Then, the promotion will be given to my client for them to promote themselves to more people.

I’m going to use ‘Photoshop’ and ‘Pages’.
I will use both softwares effectively to make the best I can.

FUNCTION
My client is band, ‘Infinite’. They want to make a promotion for people age above 12.
I will put appropriate information and pictures for age above 12. I will not put anything that is inappropriate.
The purpose of this promotion is to inform and attract the people about my client.
I will be sure to put certain information to meet the purpose.
The product will be on paper. The paper is the best material to be carried anywhere and be seen anywhere.
My client set the target audience to age above 12, so the content will be pretty safe and the overall product is safe.
Paper is a safe material and I will not put anything that is not safe.
The product should last long enough.I will make sure for the product to be not so delicate.
The promotion should attract many people to like my client and like their music.
I will make sure the design, content and the overall product to attract as many people as possible.

• Design 1: The website really attracts the people by its cute and attractive looking. It has creative designs, which makes it different from other promoting websites. This website also contains of quantitive and useful information about ‘Infinite’. It is organized into categories and different pages, which makes it easy for people to find certain information they want. However, my client wants a promotion that can be seen on everywhere without any restrictions. The website needs internet connection so it cannot be seen everywhere. More, it takes a long time to make it and it is too difficult and needs many skills.
• Design 2: The website has a simple and clean design. It also has a quantity of information and the information is well organized into categories and different sections. It also has function to share to different social networks, which makes more people to see the website. However, it cannot be seen everywhere due to the restrictions of internet connection. More, the time needed to make it is not enough.
• Design 3: The brochure is well organized to see different information about “Infinite”. It also meets client’s need because it can be seen everywhere and easy to carry anywhere. More, the brochure has a very simple design so it can be made within the time limit. However, the whole design is not attractive. Its colors are not bright and colorful enough to show the band’s spirit. It doesn’t have pictures, which makes people boring to look at. It also doesn’t have much information to let people know about ‘Infinite”.
