The photography students are looking for a limited edition of their book to be given to select individuals which should encase a limited edition print of on of their pieces of work. Initial ideas were to do with encasing the print within a gatefold at the beginning or end of the publication.
I propose having a edition of books encased in packaging with a print enclosed, this has far more advantages:
+ A gatefold does not properly encase the print and may slip out.
+ The gatefold is costly, and adds around £500 to our budget. This is due to it being hand folded, a large amount of stock required and a lot of paper waste.
+ The gatefold has to be used within all the yearbooks as it it too costly to limit to say 50.
+ Packaging in a number of 50 means they can be produced within college by hand by us and the photography students.
+ There are a wide range of packaging formats and they can protect what is enclosed unlike the gatefold.
+ Finishes can be added to add a limited 'special' feel to the editions.
There are many formats a few initial ideas I had included:
- Boxes (although these could be expensive)
- Thin Book Bags
- Bubble wrap bags
- Cellophane wrap
- Plastic bags
- Paper Wrapping + Stickers
