Exploratory stages

Over the last few weeks;

Using roles of wool as a college group we  covered the upper section of the room. the objective of this task was to look at Positive and Negative space. To create more positive space throughout the room we used tissue paper the fill in the negative space across the room.

 

Then using Plaster bandage and metal wire we had to create a 3D model of from upper section of wool and tissue paper. So I started with the wire to create a basic structure of one of the shapes produced by the tissue. Once I had created the basic structure I used Plaster Bandage to cover the metal wire Structure.

Using the iPad Application Pixlr by Autodesk I uploaded the picture of the 3D Model. 

I then added an overlay of an image of the tissue paper shapes

I then added a Drapple effect and changed the brightness of the image

Adding then a Aubergine tie die overlay, I found that the effects applied make my 3D Model look like a leaf

I then had a play with the Different effects that i could apply through the iPad Application.

I then went outside college and took a photograph of the my 3D  Model within the outdoor environment.

Opening one of the images in the iPad application Pixlr

I then added an overlay of an image of the tissue paper shapes and a silk effect to the image.

Next I added the Aubergine tie die overlay

I then added an Ink Broader called blackish which brightened the final image. 

Eye 2 Eye Logo Inspiration

The following images are inspiration for a logo I have been asked to create for a accountancy and photography company. 

Media Camera Trial

In Groups of 4 we was given a camera, a word, a colour and an item.

We was given the following

Colour - Blue
Word - Danger
Item - Toy Bear

With the words and items we then had to gather a series of clips related to the worlds and item and then edit them all together adding sound and different effects. To edit the Videos together we used Adobe Premiere Pro.

Graphic Design Playlist

Whilst I'm designing I like to listen to music to keep my mind working. So I decided to put together a playlist of all the tracks I listen too whilst designing. This helps create a peaceful and productive work environment. Please listen to my playlist on Spotify and if you like what you here please give the playlist a follow. I will do my best to keep my playlist updated. Click Here

Welcome - First Day at College

Day 1 - I would just like to welcome everyone to my blog, that I have set up to keep an online diary.  Where I will be posting my projects developments and experiences. On the 7th (yesterday) I started the Art and Design Foundation Diploma at North Notts College. My first task was a blank canvas and had to just be creative without thinking too much about what I was doing, so using paint I created ranges of colour shapes and variations of lines using my hands and a stick. Then using black paint I went over sections of the work to identify different shapes. After using the black paint I used the camera and tripod to take pictures of the different shapes and angles of my image using the Marco camera mode which I will then extract the different textures that the images display and then use them within future design work and change the colours of the images using Adobe Photoshop.
