Profile
I am Belinda Greenwood and am currently completing my second year of the Bachelor of Digital Media degree, majoring in Graphic Design. I came to university after working in administration at a school for five years wanting something more challenging and creative as a career. I have also chosen a specialisation for my electives and have started Introduction to Jewellery and Small Objects this semester. I am still deciding whether to complete a second specialisation in Furniture and Fabrication as I am enjoying the hands-on aspect of the jewellery course as well as completing the process from design to production of an item. Throughout this year, I feel I have improved on my skills in Graphic Design and have enjoyed this semester’s subjects. I am looking forward to gaining some work experience over the summer.
Assignment 1
Assignment 1 required us to find a client and create our own brief to complete a number of outcomes of various disciplines. I chose to approach the ‘New Building Development’ category which led me to Peter Mills Property Development Pty Ltd who have a residential land development at Gilston. They are very focussed on boutique, personalised service for their clients and this needed to be portrayed through their branding. Along with the benefits and features of their developments such as a semi-rural area suitable for families and retirees. I chose to go with a ‘monogrammed’ style for their logo to reflect their personal approach and creating a modern and simple design. Taking inspiration form the natural environment for the leaf aspect and colours further reflects the company and product.

Assignment 2
For the Drop One Campaign, the topic I chose was Palm Oil. The approach I took was to look at the effects on the environment caused by Palm Oil plantations, particularly in Malaysia and Indonesia. The three main points are deforestation of primary forest, the pollution caused from the methods of deforestation and the loss of animal habitat and biodiversity in these areas. These messages need to be related back to Australia as major importers of unsustainable Palm Oil, and that climate change is a global issue. The government is the target audience who will be reached by the public to take action. In particular, young people who feel that climate change and issues affecting the environment are some of the most important issues affecting the world. The campaign uses similar strategies to the Ban Live Export campaign including informing, evoking emotion. This is very popular and well known issue that received action from the government in a small amount of time.
Logo
The logo incorporates a human palm imprint to show that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the human impact that is causing all of these issues and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s us that need to do something about it. It is also drawing a comparison to the Orangutan, very similar in species, that are nearly being wiped out from deforestation.
