Batman Poster

Process:
The process of my movie poster was very difficult to think of because it took a lot of time trying to incorporate a simple idea of batman rising into a simple poster. We based our classes ideas off of Saul bass, a very famous Graphic designer. i used many different ways of using the bat symbol in the poster, the way i picked in the poster above best suits the main idea of the movie by showing the symbol rising over the city.

Challenges:
This project brought me some challenges throughout making it. One of my biggest challenges was the text, i wanted to get a text that showed how the city was in destruction without actually showing a destroyed city. Making the text i continued to run into problems with making it stand out and actually look good with the rest of the poster. I finally found the best way to make the text stand out and still fit with the colors by using an inner glow for the text which brought a very cool affect.

Reflection:
I enjoyed this project a lot because i took one of my favorite superhero movies and got to transform it into a original classic looking poster. This project got me to appreciate the idea of sail basses work by showing me the complexity that is hidden behind the simple poster. This was by far one of my most favorite projects i have done this year.http://www.saulbassposterarchive.com

Creative font

This is my Font i made in adobe illustrator. In this project i learned how to make different fonts and different and creative ways to organize text. I decided to make the E be connected with both my first and last name. I personally think it looks good because it has a unique look to it and is very clear that the E goes for both the first name and last name.

Top Ten Things Poster

Project: In this project i took my top ten things i couldn't live without and i learned how to put them together to form a poster. I used lots of spacing to make sure the text boxes and picture boxes apart tom each other. I gathered my top ten pictures of things that i own and used them to tell more about me and describe myself through the idea of a poster.

Challenges:Some challenges i had were trying to find out the top ten things I couldn't live without. It took me many days to find out what design i was gonna use for the poster. Through the few days of looking through other websites to learn how to make the layout of my grid i finally found one to use by organizing them myself in my own pattern.

kerning

kerning is the spacing between the letters and how it is evenly spaced. we played a game that took our skills of kerning and made us see how close we could get to perfect. i got a hundred percent on the spacing between xylophone.

post cards

These are my postcards i made in adobe photoshop. In the first postcard i decided to create a christmas psotcard because its getting close to christmas and i wanted ton make a nice christmas card i could use for myself. The second postcard i made was a simple track card that i made to show off what i do and represent my favorite sport, i came up with a motto to the picture and used a lot of text edits on this postcard. I have always enjoyed editing text ad making it look different. the final postcard i designed is the new Zealand card. i picked new Zealand cause it is the one place i want to go in the world. it is also home of the lord of the rings movies and i enjoyed those movies very much. In this postcard i took a simple approach and put the title of the card and morphed the a little bit to a simple arch. I also took different images of new Zealand i found and duplicated them into the image. out of al of these postcards the christmas one is my favorite because it has more of a unique feel to it and its a little bit fancier.  

creative sphere

This is my creative sphere that i made in adobe photoshop. I got behind on work and didn't have time to finish my sphere. I looked up a tutorial to do this and got more experience in gradients. In this sphere i think it needed a lot more work to be completed and to get more work to give it the full 3D effect of a sphere. I feel comfortable with gradients now and can do more with it.
