music poster

For my face I had the idea of using a face that outlines itself without outlining the edges. I started off by using an old word project to make the background black and did it a few times I then used other things so that the white wasn’t so noticeable. I then put in a white face that I made and again I put more layers over it looked like it belonged with the black. I then started on the eyes, noise, mouth, etc and that took a long time and I did it on a different file and then I copied them over and place them on the face and the last step was putting another few layers on up of it.

For the idea I had the idea in my head so awhile and had some sort of idea what it would like when I was done. The idea was that the face would be coming out of the blackness meaning of it being that the person was coming out of a dark place that he was in before

logo and poster

Logo:

1. for elements I used line to connect two objects, I used shape to make it look like there was a bubble almost around the words, I used direction to make the arrow point up into the sky to show moving forward, I made the texture smoothed and made the arrow look like it was growing in size, I left colour black and white because when I think drama I think black and white.                                                                                          

2. I’m satisfied with my final logo, I started off with no idea what I was going to do but I got two idea and I made them both and they were both really good logos to me. If I had more time I wouldn’t change that much just change the overall neatness of them.

3. With this project I found using illustrator really easy, the only time I really had any problems with it was making my curses look nicer.

POSTER:

1.For elements of design, I used line on the number 1 two make it flow down to add in other words, with shape I just made it black and white, for direction I just tried to make it look even, with size I made the numbers biggest and the less important things smaller.

2. With my poster I’m not satisfied with it, I just don’t really like the way it turned out. I would change the whole thing or start over.

3. None

Knife drawing

I started my knife trace with the knife blade, the blade was made out of mostly curved lines and when I did the handle is was also curved lines. The shape of the knife is a mix of organic and geometric shapes and lines. The knife is varietal and the lines of the knife are thin and long with a lot of curves and only a few straight lines. The color of the knife is darker with the handle being dark brown and the blade a darker gray. The texture of the knife handle seems rugged and easily grip able and the knife blade looks sharp and strong.

I started my knife sketch using the paintbrush tool and I did a quick sketch of my knife and didn’t use any other tools. Next when I did my knife trace I put the knife picture in the middle of the screen and then locked the image. I then started on the knife blade using the pen tool after I had traced everything; I then used the direct selection tool using the knobs and adjusted my lines if it was needed and then locked the image anytime I adjusted something or did another segment. After the blade I moved on to the handle, using the pen tool I made the handle and after I made the groves in the handle. My last step with to go back to the blade and trace the darker area inside the blade and then I was finished.  

In my opinion I like the color drawing better than the free hand drawing and uncolored trace. I like it better because my drawing isn’t the best because it doesn’t look like the knife in the trace. I also like my colored trace better the outline trace because the colored trace makes the knife look more real.those are the reasons I like the trace with color best and not the other ones.
