Creative CV

This box is a mock up and obviously not the final product. Time constraints meant i had to leave the box. But it is something i will create so that i can send off my cv with it looking a complete professional package. When i make it for real it will be made from thick stock gloss card. I want gloss, which is something i normally never use because the touch of it makes me cringe. But glossy is the most appropriate for the packaging was it is a creative norm for packaging to be gloss. Its normally only matt if they are specifically pushing the 'green' 'eco' side of the business/product. I used the wrapping paper i made for thought bubble because it is light, playful and fun and i think it is very representative of my practice.

The whole pack: box, creative cv, business card, examples of work with contact  info on reverse, paper yo yo toy.

The paper yo yo is also at a mock up level for this hand in. When done properly the wound paper would be attached to a plain wooden dowel approx 1cm diameter and about 15cm long. I haven't had time to go to a hardware store to get the wooden dowels i need so i have made do with an old paintbrush. 

The pocket within the cv is stitched at the bottom to match the book binding stitches holding the whole thing together. It leaves a wide window so that it is immediately obvious that these are things to be taken out and looked at.

The eight final chosen pieces.

I put my contact details onto the back of the images because they come out of the pack, therefore its relatively likely that someone might loose them, or they fall out. This way they still present all the useful information for my practice to benefit from.
