Tattoo Design

July 9, 2010

I was talking to my unkle about tattoo’s earlier today, as my sister had one just yesterday, her “stage name” on the back of her neck.

He said that he was going to get a new one soon, the Visit Wales dragon logo but he could not find a big enough version of the logo, also he wanted it in black rather than red.

I bloo this up in Illistrator and went over it quickly with the pen tool

I was not sure whether this was the closest representation of the logo and found a slightly larger version of the logo

I altered the design and these two are the end result

FINAL VIDEO, SKILLS

May 20, 2010

http://vimeo.com/11896738 here is a higher quality version

still using the same video I have altered certain aspects of it,

firstly the audio I have gotten rid of the narration and replaced it with music, the music that I have chosen called Misconstruction and is by Apocalyptica, I have specifically chosen this piece of music because it is very broody and dark, in the video I am making represent the negative feelings that some people have and the media helps create, towards video games.

The font I have used is OCR A Std and I have used it because it has a very techy computer sort of look to it, I also changed some of the text and added more to help to get the meaning across.

I did not want to show the games characters fully over the video clips, I made them fade in and out quickly more smoothly. to sort of show that is a base skill, a shadow skill.

The meanings of each of the video clips is still represent the same learned skills as they did before.

The pictures below show my thinking on how the video clips should move into place

audience

May 20, 2010

The audience I am looking at is most likely to parents who are worried about there children playing video games.

The advert is supposed to be educational, to put their minds at ease, I had copied the kind of look found in army recruitment adverts, and also some road safety adverts.

I tried showing that action games are not as harmful as the media would have us all think, although at the moment this is the least of everyones worries.

Business Card ideas

May 19, 2010

This is my first logo design, if I start a company it will be called By The Way Productions

below are ideas for business cards

I though that it would be a nice idea to have a brighter version so that it will stand out.

I chose this one with the in the center on the back and have ordered a small amount but they have not come though yet.

Procrustes

May 11, 2010

Procrustes has a magical bed that is exactly 6foot long and fits anyone, if you are less than 6″ the bed stretches ya if you are taller your legs will get cut down to the right length.

I always envisioned Procrustes to be a bit of a skinny old man that is pale and sickly looking

This next picture I tried to make him look quite aged by adding crease lines to the image.

giving him a creepy, seedy sort of look and added

I tried different hair colours and styles, I decided on the blond because although I haven’t read in any of the stories that he is blond but in pictures of Theseus are usually blond.

as you may have noticed in the pictures above that the skin colour, its almost a deathly paler

the two pictures below I have changed the skin colours using the variations tool

the final image of Theseus has been slightly squished and lengthened as I felt that the face was too square

The first few layers

the reasons for the choice of colours is as I am making the Illustrations for educational perperses, I exspect the audience to be mostly young children, so I am keeping the colours quite bright to help keep the audiences attention on the story.

thinking that this could be the finished piece

possible position, to show the ship is coming, as it is quite small and hard to make out.
