Create designs for contemporary frameworks - 03

31186 - Progress challenge 3

By Colleen Sedgwick

Implementation and manipulation

This progress challenge requires you to share your project implementation process by providing visual and written evidence comprised of the following:

1.1 A brief written description showing at least 5 examples of work safety and copyright practices you observed during the implementation of your project.

1.2 Three clear scans or images showing the evolution of your digital design for the first storybook advertisement. These images should indicate that you experimented and played around with different variations and design considerations when implementing the concept.

1.3 A brief written report explaining the elements and principles of design that you observed and used in implementing the first advertisement

1.4 Three clear scans or images showing the evolution of your digital design for the 2nd storybook advertisement. These images should indicate that you experimented and played around with different variations and design considerations when implementing the concept.

1.5 A brief written report explaining the elements and principles of design that you observed and used in implementing the 2nd advertisement.

TIP: Navigate to the student forum to engage in the discussion with your peers.

Answer

Part 1

Work safety practices I have observed/practised include:

      taking regular breaks;

      correct posture at my work station^[1]

      And keeping hydrated and energized. 

Good copyright practices include:

      correct referencing of other people’s work (particularly when quoting form them or using their pictures);

      Not copying other people’s work without giving them due credit^[2].

Part 2

Images for first ad

Part 3

I chose these ones because they have some colour:  I was tempted to use black and white entirely, and the figures (in the foreground) as a silhouette, but felt it was important to put faces to the characters.  Here are my silhouette figures for this advertisement and one simplified sketch.

For the background, here are some things I have done (two greyscale and one black and white).

These images were all done using the Image Trace tool in Illustrator.

Part 4

Images for 2^nd ad

Part 5

Here are the images I would have included for the foreground (the boy with the eagle on his shoulder) (Two silhouetted figures). 

And here are some background images I didn’t use (three of which that were also in black and white and one in colour).

For these images, I used the same techniques as I did for the last set.
