Sketches

My Weasly sketches wouldn’t upload. But the digital PDF they are there. So basically for my designs, I wanted to center the design with things that symbolize the main three characters. Of course I wanted to use Harry Potter icon glasses and scar. Hermonie is a witch and she’s smart. And of course I wanted to use the crown to symbolize the loyalty that Ron has towards Harry.

I went to the rite aid by my house. It was pretty much empty. I think that’s a good thing, it means people are cleaning themselves with soap lol. I really liked the ivory soap bar. I think that it was a pretty simple design, I love the bubbles and the overall composition of the packaging. Ivory soap – So, what makes Ivory soap unique? Well, what made it unique in 1879 was it FLOATED. This was an important property to people back in this time period who bathed in rivers and lakes. If your soap fell, it would sink and you might never see it again. But if your soap floated, you never had to worry!From the beginning, Ivory soap represented value. People knew when they purchased a bar of Ivory soap it would be good quality each time.  I picked this Soap because I love that floating aspect, and it would go great with my Harry Potter theme.

Research/target audience

Why do people sing in the shower? 

  • Bathroom tiles don’t absorb sound, your voice bounces back and forth around the room before fading away. And because the shower is a small space, it boosts your voice and even adds a little bass, making your singing sound more powerful.

What are the emotions connected to singing in the shower?

  • We don’t sing in the shower simply because we have a song stuck in our heads. It turns out we do it for many reasons: stress relief, happiness, sadness.

What does the experience of bathing bring? 

  • Washing off the dirt after such a long day. 

What are the cultural, social and religious meanings of bathing?

  • For the Turks, bathing is a semi-religious ritual in which purifying the body goes hand-in-hand with purifying the soul.
  • The Japanese used bathing as a leisurely, meditative, and sensual daily ritual, generally taking place in the evening before dinner.
  • Bathing is a process of cleaning your body through dipping in water. Taking a bath is mostly popular in the western part of the world but did you know that every country has their way of doing so. They even have their beliefs such as taking bath would bring them spiritually closer to their gods.

 Is there a spiritual, psychological feeling? Physical? Is it a pleasant experience? A happy one? Or…? Is it a ritual? Habit? Necessity?

  • From prior knowledge, in some religious practices around the world, a bath can be also called a Spiritual bat. They  have been used in many cultures to cleanse the soul, clear the mind, and ultimately heal the chakras with an intention to heal the spirit. In addition, studies show that the benefits of bathing are more than just skin deep. … They found that bathing resulted in less stress, tension-anxiety, anger-hostility, and depression

       The three songs I selected are songs that reflect nostalgiaa and magic about a certain time period of your youth. These three songs are specifically related to the Harry Potter series.In a couple of weeks the harry potter series will turn 20 years since its first debut in theaters. Philosopher’s Stone and Goblet of Fire, for me. The former captured perfectly the feeling of magic and wonderment of stepping into the wizarding world for the very first time; Harry’s Wondrous World, Hedwig’s Theme and Leaving Hogwarts just might be the most “Potter”-iest pieces of music produced. I know the tone of the series changed a lot as it went on, but that child-like wonder will always stand out to me as something special which the series got bang-on first time round.

My target audience is Potterheads. Potterheads is the nickname given to fans of the Harry Potter series. The age range is complex because the Harry Potter books and the movie are timeless when it comes to age. But since it’s soap, I would say that The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is slightly more defined. The primary target is intended for young adults. Ages 16-30, this person is a Harry Potter collectible, which means that Over the years they have collected rare items detailed to the Harry Potter series. They know all the soundtracks of the movie from 1-7. They have the entire soundtrack on their Spotify app, they watch all the movies twice a year. This person is young, carefree, they are creative, fun, and joyful. They Wear Harry Potter Apparel As Everyday Attire. 

 

 

 As soon as a Harry Potter fan listens to hedwig theme in the shower they quickly imagine themselves being transported into the magical world of Harry Potter. It’s a raining day at hogwarts it’s pass midnight the stars are glazing there’s is about the faintest light coming from the candle you put in the room, the water is Luke warm   The smell of bay leaf is quickly devouring the space between you, your voice bounces of the wall as you magically sing your heart out  to the song of your childhood.  Your are now experiencing the song of the boy who lived.

     The next soap conveys the mystery and excitement of a specific scene in the Yule ball. Harry Potter fans that grab this soap remember the first time they heard this song in the theater. This song plays as hermonie walks down the stairs for the first time to enter the Yule ball. As soon as the song  plays Harry Potter fans imagine their little 10 year old selves preparing themselves for a school dance. Especially little girls. The temperature of the bath water is warm,  there is makeup all over the bathroom sink, the dress hangs on a hanger, your prom date is waiting, the bathroom smells of lavender and jasmine, your singing your heart out because your excited for the mysterious night that is about to unfold before you. The dress your parents bought for you is all shades  pink and drips of purple. You are hermonie. ( the story continues by John Williams)

  And last but not least the next song and soap is inspired by Ron Weasley. Being the under dog for a long time throughout the show this song is his moment. The feeling this song conveys is glory, triumph, and excitement. Harry Potter fans can imagine themselves getting ready for a big  quidditch game, after so many years of not making the team they finally get to play. This is definitely a shower signing moment. The song is blasting in the back, the quidditch uniform is in hanging on the door. There is hot smoke coming from the shower because the water is hot. Your having a mini concert to prep yourself for the game of your life. Anxiety and excitement rush through your vines as you prepare for the game of your life.( Ron’s victory by Nicholas Harry)

I picked the Brand Tipton to redesign.The placing Of the product was in an awkard position in the bottom. I thought it blended in with the rest of the coffe and tea. Most Tea brands look the same anyways, which was actually a finally thing i realized. They all go for this kind of overly photo used of images to get their products to be the main focus
