We also had a trip to the natural history museum and the science museum where i got some primary responses and it gave me the idea to focus on comic book designs as i found some vintage cmic book strips.]]> 2023-04-17 10:38:53 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2556755858 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2556764948 the second week i focused on some horror comic book after going to the Barbican on a trip. i gained a lot of photos of the books in the library. i also did some more work on milanote to explain why i picked horror and brainstormed how i got to that decision. i then did some basic responses from those photos i got and developed them more. ]]> 2023-04-17 10:48:03 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2556764948 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561516909 i worked with some artist research based off of horror based artist and learnt how to do some photo manipulation to help with my skills. This is a response i did to Danny Ingrassia which i thought went well and taught me about the liquify tool which i hadn't used before. i also did some of my own work based off of both artist i had looked at. ]]> 2023-04-20 09:55:33 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561516909 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561530226 i started ding some research on some horror poster from each time frame from the 50s to 70s which allowed me to figure out which road i am taking for my design and i chose 70s as it interested me the most. the airbrush design with a black background is what i always find interesting as it makes people focus on the design the most. this research allowed me to understand some key themes of horror movie posters. i also did some work on minimalist posters which i really enjoyed as it broadened my ideas in how i can design posters which i hadn't looked at before. i did some basic designs and then developed them further so i could see how they would look if i used them for my final poster.]]> 2023-04-20 10:04:34 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561530226 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561540207 i developed my minimalist posters by using existing posters and taking the main images out of it. i used silence of the lambs and really took the main parts out. i think it turned out really well as it was still noticeable as what it was. i also did some Maximalist posters but i didn't really like them in the end as there was too much going on in the design with not much structure. the. i used some existing photos to turn into the 70s posters so i could get an idea of what it would look like.]]> 2023-04-20 10:11:10 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561540207 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561548038 for this week i did some peer review so i could see what i needed to work on and how i can improve the work i am doing. i was happy with the reviews i got out of my work as it showed me i needed to start a weekly journal but the positives were a very good motivation to keep going. I also did some work on finding the project name which came from listing everything that had connotation to horror and i eventually came to the title of eyeless which links back to the work i was doing with Danny Ingrassia.]]> 2023-04-20 10:15:55 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561548038 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561561182 i explored the basic theme of eyeless doing things like Mike Myers and just work with characters with no eyes. i also did some clown sketches and also some masks with no eyes and just the basic designs. i liked them as it gave me an idea to make better design and explore the theme.]]> 2023-04-20 10:24:09 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561561182 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561571004 i focused on some poster and how they make subtle hints to what the film is about but don't full show you these were posters like get out and the conjuring. i also looked into different way eyeless can be shown with things like black eyes, cataracts, blindfolds and skulls. This really showed me the nee and inventive way i can design stuff based of those ideas. i did some basic thumbnail sketches that i can used to develop further. ]]> 2023-04-20 10:29:54 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2561571004 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2603350464 i did some development of my thumbnail design and made some detailed versions. i them also did some practical work on some typefaces and creating different fonts for my final design. this ended up looking ok and gave me ideas of which i could take into digital sofftwares.]]> 2023-05-24 13:53:42 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2603350464 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2603356469 i finished off my work with the typefaces and choose my favourite design which allowed me to have my idea for my title typeface sorted. i then started doing more research into what i wanted my final pieces to look like and i found skulls made the most sense so i did some basic sketches and managed to find images that i wanted to follow]]> 2023-05-24 13:57:56 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2603356469 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2603359191 this was the week where i started off my final pieces and made some ideas and developed them further so i could use them on my posters. this was very interesting as i saw all the ways i could improve what i was producing at the time. ]]> 2023-05-24 13:59:51 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2603359191 u00069983 https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2603362624 this is when my final designs came together and i added colour and then also finished my designs which i was very happy with. this is where i saw the whole project coming together and created the designs that i would get graded on.]]> 2023-05-24 14:02:11 UTC https://padlet.com/u00069983/mqv58czdbyjvxdxv/wish/2603362624
