HALLELUJAH!
We haven't been posting on this blog for the last week or so and there were a few updates that we didn't post mainly because we were so busy actually doing our project and rushing for time that we didn't get a chance to. The last week was definitely a very stressful time for our group and we put in a lot of time on this project. We stayed back quite late on many days and came in on Saturdays just to catch up and make sure we meet our deadline for print which was Thursday afternoon.
Over the last week we refined all our designs and make our final choices and decisions. On Tuesday we finished designing most of our things and by the end of the day we made ourselves take charge and be decisive, rather than wasting time thinking and procrastinating and re-designing all these different things we chose what we want and the design we want to go with and just making refinements for those choices. We needed to do this on Tuesday to make sure we had enough time on Thursday to do other things.
Thursday came and we needed to make sure everything was set to go, first we colour matched everything so that all our yellows and dark greys were the say because throughout the process of designing our brand we realised that our yellows and dark greys were all different and they weren't consistent. After that we had to call the printers and find out everything that we needed for print such as the type of file and how they want us to send the designs to them for print.
Thursday was definitely the toughest and longest day, we were literally working really hard all day. There was definitely frustration evident from all of us today but we pulled through and made it out the other end.
We ended up making our deadline and sent everything to print on Thursday afternoon. After sending it we were so relieved and we can't express how happy we are even though the project isn't actually over and there are more things to do but overcoming this stage felt like a victory in itself because it was definitely a very tough road that we walked now that we look back and we are glad it's coming to an end and we don't have to keep designing anymore. Now we are just waiting for our the print material to come back and we can start making them and taking photos of them.
