• All props to be white like a fresh white canvas • Projected onto white props to demonstrate the different Paul Smith patterns and designs that the consumer has the option to chose from and personalise • White backdrop allows the projection to come up clear and crisp and for the colours to stand out and demonstrate boldness Fig 28.

Fig 32. Mock Up of Layouts, (2016)

Similar concept of prop usage as seen above in the Paul Smith adverts. Bold and structured props to project onto

Fig 34. Paul Smith Advert with Spade, (2016)

• Drawn mock ups of the positioning of text. The typography used reflects the original typography of Paul Smith keeping the consistency with the brand • Experimented with mock PAULSMITH.COM ups to gain an idea of different layouts and way the eye travels. Chosen layout • Continue the use of bottom left. Naturally your the extra information eye moves down the page such as web address in therefore the view would capitalised Sans Serif be naturally guided down • Creates consistency the promotional image to with the brand the text - the text would be • Only use two type faces the last thing the viewer to keep it clean and experiences and remembers ordered which is the key part of the campaign

Fig 33. Paul Smith and Cactus, (2016).

• Iconic Paul Smith logo and typography for the name • Continues with brand consistency and internationally renown

Fig 30. Rule of Third, (2009)

• Connecting with the consumer: The print add is designed to replicate the idea of what happens in store - the images will demonstrate the alternative display of garments and the use of digital projection to display the designs and patterns on the garments. Some of the campaigns will demonstrate a model actively involved with the designing, others will demonstrate the process of the projection onto the image and the final images will display just the garment with the pattern projected on • Link back with the Big Idea: The campaign will demonstrate the big idea in the image. This is because it directly demonstrates the new and improved digital experience directly to the consumer allowing them to understand exactly what its about and what they would experience
