Graphics part 2..!!

Ive just finished my second week in graphic design. I continued this week with illustration with the same word 'THE FUTURE'. I had to come up with an idea which communicated the idea of the future. We started the week by preparing a series of thumbnail sketches illustrating our ideas. For my final to ideas I decided to play with the idea of a playboy magazine,but making it futuristic by using a robot as the cover page - 'playbot'. My second idea was to place an illustration of a dole queue in 2050 inside a crystal ball...creating the illusion of looking into the future. I really enjoyed this week,a lot more than the typography brief last week. I am considering graphics but i want to try out painting and print first before I decide what I want next year.

Graphic Design! :D

I started of second semester with graphic design which I have been enjoying for the last week. We were given our first brief last monday which was centred around typography. On monday I was given the words 'THE FUTURE'. At first I thought I was after getting one of the easier words,but I soon found myself struggling with finding a font which suited my given word. We started the week by making out a mind map and doing thumb nail sketches to get our ideas down :D After some research I decided on my 3 ideas which had to be presented Friday. I wasnt completely happy with my finished work,it needed more work and better quality prints,but hopefully this week will go better! On friday we were also given our 2nd brief which is an illustration brief. So far this week I have mainly been doing small thumbnail sketches to see which ideas work best.
