This proposal outlines a project to design a clothing brand called "Surreal Clothing". The target audience would be male teenagers aged 15-24 from middle and lower-middle class backgrounds. Research was conducted through an online survey and interviews. The project would involve designing graphic prints and patterns for t-shirts and other clothing using Photoshop. Production would include screen printing designs on clothes as well as photography of the finished pieces. Evaluation of the work would occur weekly and include feedback from others. The schedule outlines 8 weeks of production, with tasks including design experiments, planning, production of designs, screen printing, and photography.

Working Title: Surreal Clothing
Audience:
My main audience would be teenagers which are males because they type of clothing is aimed
more towards the younger generation as a teenager classifies as 15-24 years old and with
choosing male as the main gender for my clothing would have to be that I know most about male
clothing compared to female clothing also with my survey which I have made there is 68.18%
which are male and 31.82% that are female and also I could make a unisex article of clothing
which suits both female and males which I think would be a good idea, but with my actual branding
although I have said that the main gender is male I will also have a female for the modelling
section of the photography. With the social status of my audience I will mainly aim towards B and
C1 which is are middle class and lower middle class which are the majority of the population which
is good for me as these people have the access to buy clothing at any point in time that they want
to and also as some of my audience are students they go into the category of what class their
parents are. Alongside social status there is the psychographic which I feel like my audience would
be Emulators because they want to attract the opposite sex and also have the approval of their
peers, I don’t think that it that bad to be an emulator because the majority of people are emulators
as they want to be more successful to the opposite sex and their friends. Also with my clothing
brand the sexuality will not matter because they will not be any kind of imagery which will be
homophobic and also the main audience which I think I will have would be heterosexual, bisexual
and gay or lesbian.
Rationale:
During this year, I have gained the knowledge in how to use Photoshop, this is an area which I had
been extremely interested in for a while. With illustrator, I find it to be an easier format to use
compared to Photoshop but with illustrator there are limited functions which are available to the
user. Learning to edit using Premiere Pro has been a useful tool to know for the future, and I know
that there is a great deal more for myself to learn. With this year, I have learnt so much already
that I can look back at earlier work I have this year, for example the film rotation, and also would
now have done it differently if I could go back. The decision on what to do for my FMP has been
drastically changing throughout the course as to start with I was stuck on choosing gaming as It
was something which I was really interested in doing, also with the gaming skills and being able to
experience different areas of design and creativity using different software’s, but after actually
doing the game rotation I really disliked it because it was very boring to what I thought It was going
to be like because as I enjoy video games I thought we were going to make a game which is
playable but we couldn’t so instead we had to make a short animation on what we wanted it to look
like. So overall, I have decided to go with print as I really enjoy using Photoshop.
Project Concept:
The concept for my FMP was to design a clothing brand. I’ve been influenced by my own taste and
this is why I have chosen to go with brighter more distinctive designs. I will more than likely chose
Galaxy as my theme as I felt this has a lot of options and depth to the images which I could create.
The designs which I will make will have to be appropriate for anyone to wear as I didn’t want to
create a one gender image which would create a gender segregation. I researched different types
of printing and how to achieve the best quality that I wanted. Something else which I want to
design will be to make many different posters so that I can show of multiple different types of my
clothing, also with printing instead of actually making the product I think I might try and put the
designs on the clothing through Photoshop and try and make it look realistic because I feel like it
will eventually come tedious and not cost effective to keep making more and more physical clothes
instead of just making them on Photoshop. Another thing which I could make for my project would
be a small video for my clothing so it will show of the entire article of clothing because I think with a
photo it won’t capture the whole design without losing quality and detail in the clothing, also by
making a short video of the clothing I think it will show that I want to make sure that I get the grade
which I want because the more stuff which I make and at a high level It will show that I am trying
really hard to get the best that I want.

Evaluation:
With the evaluation section of my work I will plan on evaluating it at the end of each week because
otherwise I will forget what I had done for the previous week and also doing it weekly gives be the
ability to put a lot of detail into what I have done for the full week, and also another way which I will
evaluate my work will be by having different people’s perspectives on the work which I have
created because as they are many different people they will have varied opinions on the things
which they like about it and the section of my product which they don’t like or could be improved.
Finally, another way of evaluation would be that for the production week we have to continue our
Development diaries by we have to put them into a pro forma which will kind of act as the week by
week evaluation. With the Final Self-reflection, I will make sure that I try and evaluate my work
compared to existing professional products, which are of a high standard the reason which I feel
like this would be a good thing to compare it to existing products because as it is professional work
they will be really good.
