Final Hen fold

This is my final resolution for the 'how to' brief and I'm really pleased with it! although i would have like to have done more, I'm feel iv explored this one quite well, although not completely.





The blue ink i used layers much nicer on the cream stock to the white stock. i also added a blue boarder as when in folded the page layout need something to tie it all together.

Second page/hen layout




These are a few of my second attempt at the layout of the page, instead of trying to position sections of text in the 'visible boxes' iv used the template to use the shapes of the folded origami hen to use as text boxes. i looked at different brushes in the centre, also looked at the text and how best to present it. although i like the black boxed text as a page layout, when folded up it looks messy and unplanned. my favourite bit of all these is in the top left iv written CV using the negative space, these, when folded will be the eyes of the bird.

This is the first layout design i have placed the template over the page and tried to position the text in the boxes so that what you can see when folded up is legible and understandable. i added the animal silohets to add something visual. im not 100%sure on them but i will see what else i come up with.

I'm looking at Origami shapes representing different categories of careers, Retail, Animals, Travel and Transport, Nature and Environment, Arts, and Education. These origami shapes will be linked visually with its categories eg, a swan or elephant for Animals, and will be placed in job centres. the idea is that people who are thinking about working with animals will see these shapes and pick them up, they will fold open into a small information pack about that categories, it will include a list of different jobs that are available within that categories and a template CV that is aimed towards a change in career, i am also going to try and include a list of websites and magazines that could help with finding a job and keeping up with the industry.
