C.R.A.P LECTURE

In this lecture we had to choose an object with bad ayout and redesign it. My group used a train ticket. We decided to use only the important details and make them in a larger font so its more easily noticed.

2ND LIFE



I made a 2d life charector named Hirro Nakajima. Im still getting used to the basics of the program, but it seems fairly used friendly. Im looking to make a building somewhere but all the land seems to be restricted so far

WORK OVER CHRISTMAS: ATTEMPTING VECTOR ART ON PHOTSHOP





























I began looking at vector images over the holidays and came across this image on Ronaldo (top image) and thought about having a go at this type of art. 
I used the pen tool and came up with the 2nd image. Im really pleased with this piece as it took hours and its fairly well detailed.

LUPE FIASCO: WEBPAGE AND A PHOTOSHOP IMAGE
































Here is a screen shot of Lupe Fiasco's webpage(www.lupefiasco.com/video.php). I liked how the green's and Black so well together, as well as the animation on the top of the webpage. So I decided to use these colours and make an image on photoshop. I tried to make it look more like a graffiti image and I think the various shades on greens make the theme work fairly well

WORK OVER CHRISTMAS: PLAYING WITH IDEAS BY CHOONG LEE

This is an image based on hip hop artist 2pac. 
I used lots of bold text and images from cardboard boxes, to keep in style with the artist.

DAVID CHooNG LEE:GRAPHIC COMMUNICAToR

  







































Heres an artist I began looking at in college and over the holidays began experimenting with my own ideas. Lee's work consists largley on the urban underground music scene in America.
I like this work on scrap paper and in particular his sketchy drawings on layered backgrounds. These images are from his webpage (www.davidchoonglee.com)

WORK OVER CHRISTMAS

Further to the previous images, but I added some colour to this image, I was fairly pleased with this image and thought the Orange background makes this image look like a wall mural. This is my favourite piece out of the set. 

WORK OVER CHRISTMAS


I decided to further this idea and made this inage of footballer Ronaldinho.
I changed the imagery to work with the football theme.

WORK OVER CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS

    

This is a collage I made using photoshop it is based around my name and surrounded by some interests of mine.
I began by writing my name, and then added a range of graffiti type brushes I found of the internet. I added photographs of things I liked such as Man Utd, I used a few filters to he photographs to get the image style.
