In this project, we need attention to three important things:

1.Combine Photoshop and Illustrator to create an eye-catching and dynamic candy bar name using customised typography. 
2.Depict and drawing the main ingredient and make it look idealised and appetising. 
3.Create a suitable background for the foil wrapper, that does not intrude on the other elements.

First step is writing an idea for a design solution, I am  being asked to come up with two very different ideas for a design solution. So I make two concepts one is for adult, another is for kids. Client is approved the second one and give me some suggestion.

First thing I gain from this project this use offset path in Illustrator to make candy bar name's shadow and highlight, then export  to photoshop to make typeface like 3 dimension in order to looks more glossy to catching people's eyes.

I draw a little cartoon monster to attract eyeballs and give it the traffic.  The background are many green dots which is means crisp mint pieces, butterfly is make up by mint leaf to shows project is health and nature. Furthermore, butterfly and monster are make the shadow on them also  in order to looks more 3 dimension and vivid.

In this process, I found a problem which is the whole design is very abstract, client cannot understand what is inside in this project, so I decide drawing the main ingredient and make it look idealised and appetising.

So I change chocolate drops to real chocolate bar and photoshop in side change the colour and draw mint pieces in that. In order to make client clear at a glance what chocolate bar looks like. In the detail I use smudge tool to make chocolate bar inside smoothness.

The most useful insight I have gained from this project this importance of research methods "start to learn from others". In the design process one thing is make me feel hard is "new brands". I try lots of times change colour, typeface, size, shadow and background but cannot make me feel satisfactory.  Then I open my laptop to search "chocolate bar with new" . I find many wonderful candy bar design and try to understand their intention, colour choose. This is very help way to open my mind and let me learn more from others. Finally, use this way I get the idea to change the "new brands"

In the Design for candy bar I have changed my approach to design from a focus on things to a focus on ways. As a design student in this project to be a role as a designer I need to according to the client's request to development the whole project. So using feedback, consult others is a very important thingto be a part of the design process. During this time I found spend time to talk with client can help me totally understand what their want to make a satisfactory project. on the other hand, I realised to be a good designer is not only get good skill on the design area, but also good listener to accpet other people's suggest.  Knowing that communicating anything is perfectly achievable as long as you understand who you’re talking to is probably the most important thing that I’ve learnt this semester. I am suddenly enlightened to know that through these new ways of being 'learn from other' to open your mind, share your viewpoint you can get others points of view to improve your works. In the future, I will listen to others suggestion instead of only follow my own opinion, to make client easy understanding my product and improve continually my professional skill and quality.
