Final Graphic Narrative

 I designed my graphic narrative based on BMD Design who are a design company who uses the form of art to show and express what they like in the modern society. In my artwork I have designed it so these lyrics can be seen using Bold text. This has been contrasted by a limited colour palette because i felt that black and white would give it a better feel, like a sin city approach. I believe that the colours work well for me because they are opposites on the colour palette and can make it stand out from the crowd.

The type face I have gone with is a Bold font, as I believe this gives the audience a bigger 'wow' factor because of how big it is. I have decided that it was best to still go with with the white and black theme because I was approaching it like a sin city piece of art work. The scale of the text didn't really matter in my opinion as the bold font would stand out no matter what the size it was. I believe it reflects the theme well and still ties in with the BMD artwork because it gives the vital message it needs.

The use of imagery in the five pieces, I believe reflects the narrative and the assignment brief because it uses my own artwork to tell the story. I think the imagery is realistic which uses elements of both hand-drawing and computer work. I have scanned in my work and altered some of the bits to make it look a little bit better. In my opinion maybe I should have tried to make some of the drawings a bit neater, but other than this I'm very pleased on my final outcome.

The first thing you read is the text in all of the pieces because of how bold the text is. Then you glance of the artwork to emphasis the message. This in the other hand shows that they will understand what the artwork is trying to show. The message between all of the art is to show the lyrics. I believe that the hierarchy is in the correct order and I would leave it in the order it is on the blog.







The tools and techniques I have used are a variety in which i have not used before in other pieces of art work. I have scanned all my work in because I drew the artwork originally. The variety of techniques, using things like the pen tool to image tracing etc. I have decided this was the best way to show this is because I thought I would show off my narrative in the best way. This has been the best way of learning because i have never drawn my own artwork before this and I think this was a huge learning curve.





Overall, I think that it was a huge learning curve because I have tried something different which has payed off. Rather then doing just type, I have decided to try something different which I'm proud of. If i was to change anything it would be just to make the lines in some the drawings look better.
