Re-branding

It's nearly time to start sending out CV's and trying to get placements, so I need to have a creative CV, business card & website that I am actually happy with first!

It seems like an exciting challenge to brand myself and there are many directions I can go with. I want to make it as true to myself as I can, and seen my main interest is in illustration I think this is where I should start.

Idea 1 - Griffin Bird

I've researched the mythical 'Griffin' bird, as I'd like to draw one for my logo.

Experimentation

Idea 2 - Create Own Font

Similar to a project we did right at the beginning of the first year, I'd like to create my own font, this time representing my own personality, hopefully giving clues about who I am as a designer. 

So now is the point where I think - do I make it as true to me as possible, or do I do something that I think will appeal to many? I don't really know what the answer is so many it will be best to do both then decide.

Here's something I wrote about myself when deciding on a topic for my 'what is good' in the summer:

Idea 3 - Illustration of Me

To make it as personal as possible I've thought about including an illustration of myself.
