after looking at playing cards as reference to my logo, i felt it made sense to create a bussiness card like this.
i researched alot into the possiblities of how a card could be created:
raised inks produce a card that you can feel in your hands.
foiling gives logos and words a shimmer or glaze making the card memorible and proffesional.
embossing allows the details of the card to be pressed in, depending on the thickness of the card it main mean only one side could be used.
dye cut the card can be cut to any shape of have parts removed. this was the one i was intrested in. calling a company called print warehouse i asked the cost and set up if i were to get a card. Plates are created in the shapes you require this is the inital cost) then the cards are cut- ce the plates are created however you can use them again and again.

trick or treat
well my idea for my media city illustration is going to be like a childrens book one. a brothers grimm one in theory. i want to convey the message i felt from medi city. that yes its big and great but at what cost the the creative mind. we can be as amazing as we want but if certain regulations dontmatch with the thoughts of ppl like the bbc what happens? its the wolf leading the child. so heres a few sketches and such, eyes, expressions and wolves :) haha i just had a thought the BBC Big Bad Company......

more logo design
these few ideas coome from a photo i took of just 3 fanned out cards. (the reason for three is thats how many tarrot cards your meant to choose) i created the pattern from the letters fd (fate design) something i might want to add on to the bussiness card. i think im going to stick with the soild colour as it reminds me of a pantone set aswell as playing cards. ive removed the spot and also placed the top card higher so it doesnt interupt the bottom border.
