Jack and Jill

 Jack Jill-
I have used the @ to represent jill's head because it reminded me of the emoji on the phone of a hot headed women and thats what i thought jill reminded me of. The body was their to represent a very small women. The hashtag is their to represent a man with attitude who tweets about his wife. And the moon was to represents the full moon being love between each other of jack and jill .

 The next picture is have used the star to represent the way of life. It reminded me of the star to follow like in the bible stories, so i decided to input this into my story. The hill is represented with some weird picture bits that i put together in order to show its difficult to make it to the stop.

Killer Coke

I have used Adobe Illustrator make this artwork about Coca Cola. This poster gives off the effect that, the way coca cola are running their business in the 3rd world countries is disgusting. So in order to get this message across i have decided to design a poster that shows death. Using the grim reaper in the top right corner shows that what coke are doing is slaughtering innocent people by demanding such high quality. They use kids to farm their recourses even though it's agaisnt the law. I have also used, a quote to give the reading audience an understanding of what is actually going on. When i read the quote "The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living" in my eyes it shows you can hurt but never forget. No matter how many times you just kill people off, you will never ever forget what you have done.

Graphic Narative- Evaluation

After a long period of working towards a deadline, it feels like a big i have achieved a massive goal in completing a decent collection of artwork. The overall narrative assignment was very enjoyable although at times became very stressful because of the attention to detail. If i could re do this task again I would because it made my illustration skills much better. The way i created my narrative was by hand drawing the pictures first then scanning them in to create a digital version. This became a really hard task because

After looking back at my work, I had wish i could had maybe altered the style in order to make my story more effective. Maybe trying to make my style as close to BMD DESIGN. Although I'm very satisfied of what i have achieved. My final outcome was designed in Adobe Illustrator, which is used in both professional and production industry. I used a variety of techniques in Illustrator like the pen tool, using live paints and many other techniques to make my final outcome.

Using a wide range of colours, styles, fonts and illustrations, each helmet is as creative as they come. Each design makes the most of the helmet's shape, with letters perfectly placed around the entire product. The colour palette chosen for each design seamlessly ties in with the colour of the helmet itself.

BMD Design have created a piece of artwork for Lucky Brand (Clothing Outline), in order to for it to be printed onto teeshirts. The use of colour is simple, but bold in order for it to be effective. The limited colour palette suggests that BMD wanted to be creative using the text to its full potential. The chosen wood background, i believe enhances the picture but also suits the bear it self. The text is a mixture of both big and small, with the bigger text having more of a place, which gets the main message across. Reflecting the theme of it being printed on a clothing line , it does its job effectively and will be great to see. The fonts, work really well , and i lil the the curliness of the font giving it that little bit extra. I think the artwork would have been art drawn first then scanned into the computer to make the finishing touches. This is a great way of knowing exactly what you want and where you want it. It has used pastel colours in order for it to get different tones. The first this i read when i looked at this picture was the California. I believe this was because it was at the top and had a cool swerve to it. Then you begin to look at the bears head and start looking across. You eventually understand what Lucky Brand is and when they were Established. BMD created this by hand with pens and pencils, which then was developed in illustrator into vectors to change the opacity and things like that.

A cover for the New York Times Magazine, 2006

This piece of work which was created for the New York Times Magazine in 2006 is a stand out piece of art for me. It uses bold writing to makes the words that means most be recognised first. The words which are designed in the shape of  typical 'bomb' makes it unique because of the way it has been designed. The boldness of 'Islam' gives the art the structure of the rest of the piece. It enables the audience to create an image in the head of what these people from the middle east are doing. This is helped by using a limited colour palette i.e Black and White. This helps the art give a strict and harsh message out. It shows that the artist is angry about this ethical problem and wants this message to be harsh. With the theme being 'against terrorists' it enables the artist to use his art to be a harsh message to the audience. The scale of the text get smaller as you look down the page. It uses the theme of a bomb to reflect its message against terrorists. In my opinion this piece would have been originally hand drawn which then had led to digital enhancement. It would have had the outline of the "Bomb", then he would have drew in the words by hand to get an original draft. Then he would have scanned it in to Adobe Illustrator to beef the art up. This reflect the theme incredibly well to show that this is a hard hitting image. When you first look at this image , i was first drawn to the word 'Bomb'. Although it may not be the biggest word in the image it gives the structure of the artwork. After you look above to 'Islam' which then, you as a audience know this is a hate message to terrorists. You then read down the page to understand the the phrase. This text is the best way to represent this information because its like reading a normal paragraph. It enables the audience to gauge into the artwork and the hard hitting message. 

Tools and Techniques of the Image

• Pens
• Pencils
• Illustrator  

The most successful thing about this artwork is that he has been able to use the message and adapt it into a visual image. Using the bomb to give the impression that the terrorists could drop a bomb on top of anyone at anytime. It is a hard ethical image giving the audience something to think about and discuss. The depth and quality of this image is amazing and I don't think I would change it because it gives the message perfectly.

Animation

This is an animation that I have made on Photoshop, using a timeline.

Nextly I have made my square fade in and out moving around the page using different opacities of the square

Logo Development

This is my development and initial ideas for my logo for my newspaper. As you can see i started of with simple colours to start creating my idea.            

 After this I decided on some stylish writing to give it a classy look.


Then I started to think what stealth actually meant , so changing the opacity of the text was able to give me a shady grey and black colour.


After this, I put to stealth's together one above and one underneath to try and develop the idea. Adding a triangle and stars to try and emphasis what stealth meant.


With this in mind, i took it a completely different way and changed the colours of the outline to red and add another triangle to gain a different perceptive.



After that , I thought it was missing something , so i added and created the arcs to give some inspiration for the readers of the newspaper.



 Then finally I added two different background colours to see what it would look like.
