  1. Jamieleigh Brookes AQA Product Analysis – with a material area of Food

  2. Research Existing Graphics for my Theme Evaluation of the image I don’t particularly like this because it is really plain and not really for a wedding. It has a William Morris theme on the patterned bit. I really think it looks more like a funeral card Evaluation of the image This design is nice but it is for young children. I really like the owls because they are really sweet and they are a nice pink, it would be really nice for a wedding. It has been designed for a wedding, but I think the ideas could be more mature. Evaluation of the image This design is really pretty and will be nice for a wedding invitation and the picture will attract the person who is reading it. The colours in the printing are all harmonizing. This means they come from the same part of the colour wheel. The cream card is really good, it is a contrast to the printing. Evaluation of the image This invitation is nice with the bow on the front and it is a nice green pale colour. The printing is very subtle (this means you can just about see it). I like the way it folds over with the bow and is very sweet. I could come up with an idea like this.

  3. analysis of the research and my design specification My Mood boardI have put together a mood board because it gives me loads of different ideas and you can see lots of different colours in the food and it gives lots of ideas for different menus. I also noticed the way the tables have been laid at also how they present the food. Looking at existing wedding themes My venue sheet shows me how professional the setting for the venue is. It has also shown me how to think about my table settings, the themes and the quality of all the wedding ideas. There are many different types of interesting and pretty themes I have decided to come up with a summer theme for my idea. I will write this up in the specification. Graphics analysis The sheet of graphics has helped me see what really interesting images that can be put on invitations and table settings for weddings similar to the one I am going to design for my client. I like the way many of the images are simple and stylish. Looking at sustainable weddings There are many people now that would rather have a good quality Eco wedding. I looked on the Internet to see what information I could find for this. The results are quite interesting. I found that you have a really pretty weeding with lots of colour and unusual flowers. The usefulness of the product analysis – mini Indian snacks, mini beef burgers, pear and almond tart During the lesson we had a product analysis session. We tried out three different food types that could be eaten at a function. I was able to see if the foods tasted good. They were all ok, but I think home made would be better and they need to be different recipes ideas.

  8. Health and safety during my practical lessons. • During my practical I had to think about carrying out health and safety because of all the hygiene and safety issues , this is what I did: • wash hands before handling food. • I tied my hair back. • I made sure your work space is clean and tidy. • I didn’t touch plug sockets with wet hands. • I separated raw food from ready to eat food. • I washed and dried all my used equipment. • I didn’t leave items around on the floor. • I wore an apron at all times. • I put all my mucky towels and dishcloths in washer machine. • I didn’t store food or drinks near cleaning products or other chemicals. • I didn’t mess around in cooking area because I could of injured myself.

Mix the stock powder with the water. Deseed and dice the red pepper. Add the stock, peas and curry powder. Chop the tomato. Simmer for 15 minutes, until the rice is tender. Fry the onion until soft. Simmer for 15 minutes, until the rice is tender. Finish

  10. Sketches of my initial graphics designs

  11. This design is meant to be a repeat pattern. I wanted it to look sweet and very feminine. The outcome is quite nice and was easy to complete using 2D tech-soft design

  12. From the three ideas I have sketched up I like the top one. it’s a simple yet effective idea. On the reverse of the card I will write up the detail of the wedding. I have decided to make this theme one of bubbles and circles I think it’s a little bit like a fairytale theme.

  13. I have carried out the making of the idea by using the printer and some strong white 120gm card. I will mix the colour ideas in 2d design. Then measure up the sizes to A5 and print out several different variations of my idea. I want a boarder around the idea. This will then be cut using the cutting machine in the D&T room. i like this graphic design because it’s simple yet effective. The colours link into my wedding theme and my mood board I wanted a really light weight pretty effect. I think this invitation is just that. For my third wedding invitation idea was done to make it look like a cake. I have used the same circle effect. I like this idea because I can use this for a invitation or a wedding menu. I did this in 2d design I think the result is high quality.

  14. I decided to make some cup-cakes for an alternative wedding cake. Many weddings now have this type of pudding as it is cheaper to manufacture and lots more people appear to enjoy eating them. The recipe was a simple ‘all in one’ I mixed the ingredients and then decided to modify the outcome by adding some chocolate mix to the basic recipe. I then swirled the mixture around just a bit so that it gave the texture and appearance of marble. The finished look was high quality. I then iced the outcome with lots of different patterns in butter icing. This soup recipe I modified was by using seasonal vegetables this means that the recipe is more sustainable and the vegetables were organic. The outcome was that the soup was fresh, tasty and healthy. However, I did think that it was a little bit to salty. Therefore, I would modify the recipe by leaving out any added salt.

  15. Final Evaluation of the project outcome • At the beginning of the project I set out to do a wedding buffet. I decided to put together a theme that had lots of lovely flowers and images that are very summery. The research that I found most useful was the recipe research and my past experience in the food room. I found that it was useful because I was able to plan the recipes for the menu idea and I knew that I could make them. • I think my research was good and I did enough to help produce a good theme. I found that my ideas for the menu was quite easy, as I wanted to do a buffet for summer many recipes link into this quite well. I wanted to use the theme to help develop the cakes and wedding cup cake idea. • I think that I have answered my design brief because I was asked to come up with a theme that the client would like, I was also asked to design a menu that a range of people would like, also some vegetarian food. • I like the outcome of some aspects of my work. I would do the menu ideas differently as I think more protein foods should be placed on the menu ideas. I think the graphics is really good, I would on this for quite a long time. I also think the colours and theme I have used is really good. • I intend to ask some people what they think about the theme and the menu ideas. I think the outcome is Ok, but I want some people to tell me. I will include the comments made by my family surrounding the recipes: • The comments I got back said the soup was a bit too salty, so I would modify the recipe by adding stock cubes with low salt. • Some of my family didn’t like the quiche, they said it was to veggie, they would like meat in them. The vegetarian I asked like this option on the menu.

  16. Final evaluation of the project continued I planned out my recipe in full, I then used this to carry out each stage step-by-step. I found the planning really helped me keep on track and I was able to follow the recipes. When I was making my recipes I came across some problems getting the ingredients. Miss helped me during this stage, I told her what to buy and she managed to get the items for me. I think I made good time during the recipes, however the graphics took a lot longer to design and make. I think that if I was to be a wedding planner I wouldn't be that good at cooking on a large scale. I think you need to be professional and like working with people to do this job. Overall, I think my project turned out quite high quality.
