FEEDBACK

For my logo development is fine but then i just need to change the color for the background a bit darker so the logo will pop out.

17/06/19 (Week 12)
Mr. Shamsul said okay with the idea for my box since the idea of the box design (Sliding box) to keep the consistency from the first project

24/06/19 (Week 13)
For the mockup, Mr. Sham said it's fine and it looks good but and also Mr. Sham suggest me to find the nail polish with the sticker so I can take out the sticker and put my sticker design on it. 

01/07/19 (Week 14)
I show Mr. Sham the box mockup for my box, Mr. Sham asked me to do the small mockup with the wrapping box so I know how to wrap the box properly and also the measurement for the box need to be really careful because I need to increase the size a bit since I'll wrap the box.

REFLECTION

EXPERIENCE
In this class, I got to experience to design a box for merchandise and also designing the packaging box how to make its interest and attract the consumer. I got to learn how to do the math for the measurement for the box. :D

OBSERVATION
I observe that designing is not easy where I need to be really careful especially for the striker and all because if I did it wrong I need to do it again and reprint which cost a lot of money and time. Last but not least, While doing the cutting for mounting board or sticker it's really dangerous when we not holding the ruler carefully or we can cut ourself accidentally.

FINDINGS
I was really struggling in the beginning because I've never experience in this kind of work, which I don't know what kind of material that can be suitable for my merchandise and I've never experienced to use mounting board to make the box, but for final project I tried to be brave to use this kind of material and it's not easy where i need to stick it all together using APV glue which is very different with art card paper where i can just fold it.
