After my experience with digital applications and my work in my previous collage, I have made a decision that I want to be a graphic designer. Because of this I real what my visual communications to go well for me. This is more than just about trying to pass this part of the path way for me. Through the exploratory stage I came to realise that grate artist's and designers are so because they have something about there work that is special, unique to them and that people want to above all spend there money on. They have a personal style that sets them apart from the crown. I what to be like that. Because of this while I take part in these Vis-Com sessions I'm going to be taking steps towards crafting that style and at the very least coming up with something that I can start to shape into my design image.
Today was the first lesson and we were introduced to the theme of the next 6 weeks which is contrasts. I spent my time in the lesson with two things. The first was a mind map of ideas of different contrasts that I could use and the second was an illustration of one of the contrasts (feast and famine). this resulted in there pages of work in the one day. This is one less that I aim for usually but I am still happy with the results. I know that soon I going to be going on interviews for Vis-Com courses at university's and I plan on bringing along this sketch book and because of this the book has to show off everything I can do and everything about me along with my style in 20 or so pages. lets just say even though the first page is just a mind map I wanted to start off with a bang.
A soon as I open up the book I want the interviewer to be impressed and I think they will be.
This is the illustration that I made of the theme of feast and famine.
Previously I did some work for one of my cousins designing some t-shirts and I used this style of illustration to do so. I thought this would be a grate starting point for me trying to develop and innovative style. Is was very simple but effective and is still capable of conveying a serous message without its cartoon look getting in the way to much and I think this is a good starting point of my development.
