Collection 100...

During my crit I was told that I had a solid idea, but my design needs some rethinking. The colour scheme is too consistent throughout the 100 designs, making them a bit boring. Also I was told that I need to work on the type, concentrating on the layout and watching out for widowing.

Firstly I changed the font from Myriad Pro to Birch Std, which I feel pulls the design together a lot more nicely. Also I decided to change the colour scheme using the classic traffic light coding, to indicate whether the sex position is easy, medium or hard, rate by technique and effort. I chose to do this, because not only does it make the designs more interesting with some variation, but it gives the difference in colours some relevance as well. I have designed three variations of the packaging as well so that the consumer can tell the difficulty before purchasing the product.

Collection 100... Initial Designs

I have started designing the inserts for the eggs by tracing 100 various sex positions on Illustrator that I found online...

I then proceeded to create a layout for the inserts that reflected the branding of the packaging. I designed two variations, a vertical and a horizontal to accommodate for the different sized and shaped pictures so that they wouldn't negatively affect the overall look of the layout when put together.

Here are some examples of the final designs put together, complete with quirky sayings and slogans to add to the novelty of the designs...

I have tried to spray paint some foil black for the packaging, nut i think this has turned out looking cheap. I may consider using black cling film instead.
