Feedback from Prawn Shocker.

I was asked to make a CD cover and a logo for a band named Prawn Shocker. After watching the YouTube video's and searching Prawn Shocker around on Google I felt the clients content was a bit obscure and far different from anything that I have ever seen, most definitely the one of the most strangest things I have ever seen or heard before, I had not talked directly to the client our tutor was the one who gave us the project to work on, however I like the fact that I've never heard anything like that its unique I would listen to it personally I felt it was a struggle because I couldn't figure out the genre which the type of music was so this made the target audience hard to work out. The first thing I did was the logo prawn shocker I had no idea what I was going to do so I ended up finding images of black and white prawns on the internet and cutting, shaping and turning them into letter that spelled the word prawn shocker. I thought that this Logo I made was a pretty basic idea but it was quite good. The CD cover I made was pretty weird again I didn't have a clue what the genre was so I just put a random samurai fighter with the words prawn shocker in the top left corner and a full moon in the top right corner. This is was pretty basic but I couldn't think of anything else other than knowing the client liked Japan. This wasn't the best piece of work that I have produced. I think the prawn shocker logo with the prawns spelling the words worked quite well although some of the letter looked a bit off and looked hard to read. A colourful background could of been added instead of a plain boring white background. The cut out of the samurai for the CD logo worked well however the client said that the CD looked to much of a rock band cover. All in all making the CD and the Prawn Shocker logo was quite cool. It was a good experience knowing that I was making a product that a client has asked for. However the client said he did like the idea of the prawns as the font of the logo but he said that more work was also needed on the letter to make them more readable. He also said the CD cover would of looked better if it had something madcap and surreal. Overall I enjoyed this experience which has given me an overview of what doing actual real work for a client feels like. However I which I spent more time on my project I wish I had tried out different way to create the end product. Both the Logo and the CD cover were both made and finished for first goes.  The client wasn't really that satisfied with my final work as they said work had to be done on my piece of work in order to make the client happy. If I were to repeat the same task I would make sure I spent my own time making it more creative and professional which would mean having better time management and working on it after classes in my free time. The time management was sort of okay as but I only spent time making the product in class time. I suppose the logo met the target audience of prawn shocker as it was weird and had different vibes. I feel like the end product could of meet the needs of the target audience as it is weird and includes things around prawn shocker.  Overall I felt like the project was good the ideas were there just not a lot of motivation to complete the task on a near professional standard.

CD cover for prawn shocker.

Firstly I opened up Photoshop added a background I chose the colour red because of the Japanese flag which has a red circle in it. I then added a picture of a samurai which symbolises a Japanese warrior which a red circle on his chest which could also stand as a Japanese flag.

 Finally I added a picture of the moon in the top right corner and added the title 'Prawn Shocker' in the top left for the brands identity.

I am starting my project firstly on a logo for prawnshocker I used images of prawns to write the word prawn shocker. This will be going to a client who has a band called prawn shocker.





























This is the final writing for the logo for prawn shocker. The letter 'e' was the hardest to make

This is a screen shot of the the logo later on.

This is my end product of my prawn shocker logo.
