"Chosen Concept"

This is my chosen Concept page, I chose to create a fold out book which will inform tourists of different information about the architecture and the things they will find in Perth. 

I will use the reference photographs I have already gathered in my primary research to illustrate from, I will add text and information about chosen illustrations which will inform and 

entertain my audience.

"Who's my Audience"

This is a page from my InDesign document when I decided who my audience was, I decided that my aimed audience would be Tourists 16 years and over. 

Portfolio

Here is a small portfolio of some of the work I have created over the last two years at college and in my first few months at Huddersfield University. 

1) "JukeBOX" is a design I created in my free time, I was inspired by SWERVE and St Bradbury to create this illustration. I used the pen tool to create this entire design on Adobe Illustrator I am happy with the outcome to colours work well together the font works well with the design and the colours compliment each other well which helps the design fit together nicely. 

2) "Lightbulb growth" is a piece I made while in University it was an Adobe suite tutorial that we created that started off as individual layers in Photoshop. I used a many different varieties of tools and effects to create this like the Merge tool, Opacity tool and Mask tools.

3) "Tour de France" is a poster I created while in my first year at college, I used the Pen tool again when creating this piece of work but I believe my skills in Illustrator have improved vastly since I started work at university. 

4) "Peter Kay vector Illustration" I made this while at college in a project, the brief was to create a recognisable celebrity using Illustrator with the Pen tool and the Pencil tool. I believe that this has been successful everyone I have asked can easily recognise who the celebrity is. 

5) "Infographic" this was a project in college where we had to take something that interested us collect facts about whatever we chose that we were interested in and turn it into a visually stimulating piece of information. I chose to create it on Pool, since it's the sport I play I already had a lot of information this project was great. 

6) "Mr. Pepper wine bottle" a piece from my final major project at college, I created a company/restaurant called Mr. Pepper, I made the logo and the wine bottle design which i developed through Illustrator and Photoshop. 

7) Yorkshire Sculpture Park was a rebranding project, we took a trip there to get inspiration, I totally rebranded the park to make it more interesting to younger people, this was the poster I created. 

8) "Drip" a design I created in my free time, it wasn't planned I just wanted to make something using typography which demonstrated an idea. 

9) Rebrand of Yorkshire Sculpture Park, including the Logo, flyer and Poster. 

10) Shakespearian design using a sonnet of my choice, I created this design in mind of expressing the words of the sonnet or a singular line using imagery. I also added some words weaving between the trees and the whole design I went for was very sinister and dark which also represents the style of the sonnet which met the brief well. 

11) "ROTATION" my first time using the rotation tool after watching a 5 minute tutorial 

I created this. 

12) My logo for my Mr. Pepper I tried using different colours and fonts to experiment with the appearance of the logo. 

"Jukebox" a design created by me.

 This is a design I created using illustrator, inspired by swerve and his illustrations and how he uses backgrounds which inform about the foreground and the actual illustration. I was inspired by Swerve and some of the people I looked at for inspiration to create this design using the word JUKEBOX I used an exercise I found where I asked people to say the first thing that came into their head In this case I asked my dad to say the first word that came into his head which was jukebox. I created the different elements of my design using the pen tool on illustrator and made the box lettering using squares to make the text relevant to the actual design. I am most happy with the headphones because I feel that I have used the pen tool well to create the different dimensions and the shape of
the headphones.

 I am really happy with this test, I used the Pen tool to create the design making highlights and the earphones also using the pen tool, I used a reference image of earphones I found on google and created them around the BOX feature which I thin has added a new interest point and helps the design as a whole pop. 

ROTATION

This is a design I create in my spare time, it was my first time using the rotation tool on illustrator after finding a tutorial on youtube. I created anchor points in the middle of shapes and used geometric shapes with different set angles to create a measured rotation of shapes around my base shape which was a circle. I am very happy with how this has turned out, the design isn't completely finished but I now feel that I have a better knowledge of how the rotation tool works on illustrator and i feel that I can now use it in the future in my new design that I create. 

Artist Research- Behance

This is "Behance", I found a lot of Illustration that is influenced by the city on this page which is why I used it as inspiration on my project. The work I have focused on is road maps and how they are mapped out by in illustration purposes. 

This landmarking of historical sites and places of interest is a very good Idea I love the way they have presented the work in an actual road map which is in the city as shown in the 

bottom right hand picture.

They are influenced by the city because of how they know what city they are trying to design for and researching into what the historical background is of whatever it is they are designing for, for instance in the "Robot" design they have used actual robots they have illustrated to make the 

buildings, vehicles ect.. It is easy to tell that they have really done there research with there piece of work because of the detailed reflection of what they city is all about in there designs. 

We can see this in designs like "BeRLin" and the personalised LouLou and Tummie design they have created on my artist research page. 

Artist Research- "LouLou and Tummie" Illustration

LouLou and Tummie are Illustrators that create animations with the Illustrations they make, I love the simplistic look to there work which I feel benefits the animation I want to apply some of the simplistic style that I have gained inspiration from into my own work.
