Week 9 Thank You Card Research


Both Zoë and Adrienne have spoken with me about setting up thank you cards for this years sponsors, so I decided to spend this week looking and researching card designs.
The first card I found is from a consulting business, and while this might not have a lot in common with a film festival, there are strong graphic elements that work well in this card. The simplicity paired with the font creates a professional feeling to the card, something that should definitely be present in our card. These sponsors want to know that their money has been given to a legitimate and responsible source, something the card should reflect. 
Another card I found was done in the style of a silent film title card. This idea would not match V6, but the use of screen-printing to make the graphics and text pop on the paper is interesting and might be worth looking into. The screen-printed look is chic and looks more high quality. One design idea using this method would be to print the logo and thank you in silver on black paper. The text and logo would be reflective, which has an old-school, spacey vibe of everything being made out of chrome. I'm not too sure if this would be in our budget, but if we can get the supplies from the Art Building on campus, this could be easily crafted by myself in no time.
