design evaluation
Changes/Improvements people want
Goalkeeper gloves
so if goalkeeper actually almost saves the ball it wouldn't slip out of the goalkeepers hands.
Contact lenses
There are goggles but usually they aren't that good and the water always gets in the goggles into their eyes but now with the contact lenses none of that will happen, and they are easy to put in
Chin pads
A useful tool for football players because when wearing socks and chin pads under the pads always slip but with the chin pad socks the chin pad in installed in the socks so it wont slip, the chin pad socks are easier to put on and faster
Which would I Re-Design And Why?
I would re-design the goalkeeper gloves and make them air conditioned and make them only allowed to stick on footballs and easy to let go of ball if needed. this is a really useful tool for goalkeepers because it can save alot of goals that should have been saved and not scored on because of a slip.
Design Specification
I want to use a A4 fold up leaflet/ folded brochure to sell my goalie gloves. If think I a primary green based theme so that it subconsciously reminds people of a football field. I also want to have some balls all over the place in the brochure to show the environment and to give the mood . The font should be small enough to read but big enough to let older or people with weak eye sight to be able to see. i would use the font Arial or Verdana because it is much more professional and easy for everyone to see. i would have to use a laser printer because it has very good quality and i actually have access to one. I will also try to have at least 5 pictures in the brochure to make the brochure appealing to read and so its not boring.
Why did i choose these designs
i chose to do the goalie gloves because it could save lot of goals that should have been saved and with the sticky material on the palm it will help the goalkeeper get a grip on the ball.
i chose to do the contact lenses as goggles to bee easier to see in the water with HD quality and so the water cannot enter into the eye, it will also be more comfortable to wear that a huge tool on your face, also it wont slip off.
i chose to do the chin pad socks so chin pads and socks are easier to put on and while playing a game the chin pad wont fall because the chin pad is in the sock and you wont get hurt if it slips.

reflection on how to make a brochure/magazine
In class we did the first part of the project on the brochure or magazine part of creating our own sports gear and I will do a reflection of what I did. I think I did quite well in this part of the project because I managed to complete the 5 questions, and I explained them with great detail. I have answered all my questions with accuracy and I have worked very productively in class.
creating a brochure/magazine
Sticky goalie gloves
The problem is when the other team is about to score a goal, and the
goalkeeper jumps for it and only just touches the ball but it still manages to
get into the goal, we need a product that will solve that problem and that
won’t let the ball in the goal that easily. Well that is where the sticky goalkeeper
gloves come in, these gloves will prevent the ball from going in the goal if
the goalkeeper touches the ball and almost saving it, the sticky gloves will
then come to work and will get the ball stuck onto the gloves so the ball won’t
go in.
1.
What are the different brochures/magazines
that might be used by a business? What are they used for?
The different brochures that can be used are
ones with different designs, organization, business, events, and products, also
they advertise for different companies, some can be for a selling point or some
can be used for advice or directions.
The different magazines that can be used are
generally published on a particular timing and contain a variety of content.
The different types are by advertising, by a purchase price,
by prepaid subscriptions, or a combination of the
three. The word "magazine" refers to a collection or storage location.
In the written publication, it is an assortment of written articles.
2.
What do the design of sports gear and brochure
look like?
The design of my sports gear is for football
and it is sticky goalie gloves and the back hand of the gloves it made out of
white, blue and red leather and the palm part of the glove will be made out of
a sticky material that only sticks on football but let’s go when ball is
released.
The different brochures look like professional
brochures for companies to sell or casual brochures for restaurants, toys
selling point etc. All brochures come in different colors, fonts, designs and
layouts, they are all arranged in different ways to show their product or what
they are advertising.
3.
How should the layout of the business
brochure/ magazine look like?
· Front
Cover: This must be able to capture the reader’s attention by using colorful
pictures/text, the most important benefit of the product, a rhetorical question
to get the reader thinking or very little but important key information about
the product.
· Back
Cover: The inside front cover is designed to persuade someone about the
product, for example, why they need it, what does it do, how will it help them,
etc. This is usually done with rhetorical questions, and usually some
straightforward questions that must end in yes to avoid losing the reader’s
attention.
· Information
Pages: The other four pages of a brochure are all information pages that tell
the readers all about the product, informing them all about the product, it
advantages, the location and key information of where you can buy it, price
details and most importantly, which also very discretely cover up the disadvantages.
4.
Choose and decide what you would like to
create to advertise your sports gear through a brochure/poster or leaflet? Also
explain why?
For my sports product, I would like to create
a brochure. I prefer to create a brochure rather than a poster or flier because
of many different reasons. Firstly, a brochure can contain much more
information compared to any other type of advertisement because it has more
space and more places for key information that is very important. Secondly, a
brochure can contain all the factors of a flier and poster because it has many
more pictures describing and much more space for information that the reader
would definitely want to know. Also the poster has very little detail, and
fliers cannot be controlled to a specific area of advertisement.

5. Investigate three different softwares that
you can use to create the advertising material. What are the advantages and
disadvantages of each type of software? What are the features?
The first and foremost software that I can use
to create my brochure is Microsoft Publisher. Microsoft publisher is known
worldwide and I am very familiar to this software because I have used it all my
life. Publisher is very easy to use, graphics are easily imported and
formatted, there are numerous templates and it includes professional printing
and publishing options. However, publisher has a very slow installation
process, most school computers do not have it, it is not particularly useful
for offices and it has no Apple OS versions, making it difficult for me to work
with as I only have access to Apple devices.
Lucid press is the second software I have
looking into, and this software looks interesting because it looks very simple
to use and it has many features such as cool displays, and many new options
that publisher does not. The advantages of Lucid press is that it is extremely
easy to use, it is free, it can be done online, it has a large number of
templates, it has a vast amount of features but the disadvantages are that it
is slightly harder to export the brochure when completed and that you must be
connect to Wi-Fi to work on your brochure.
The third and last software I’ve been looking
at is Arc Soft. Arc Soft has some very interesting features such as advanced
photo and text composition, photo editing software, and coding processes for
more innovative work. The software includes advantages such as a built in
tutorial, several amazing features and easy accessibility however it is far too
complex for a student to be using and it is not free.
