Graphic Design- Presentation Of Work

Here i’ve just taking a few photo’s of how i’ve presented my work for submission, which contains work from my 2 week workshop and my main workshop.

Graphic Design- Final Poster

Here is my final outcome of my A1 Poster, thats based on my chosen exhibition VOX HYBRIDA in The Golden Thread Gallery. This poster was inspired by a lino print design that i originally created in my sketchbook. This poster represents the name of the gallery but the letters are printed individually to create a scattered effect or to make them look dispersed and some of the letters are purposely printed backwards, as a particular piece in the exhibition really caught my attention and became very influential on my own work as that particular artist also experimented with letters and words chipped backwards. I’ve also incorporated different type styles as some of them are: uppercase, lowercase, block letters and some of them in a calligraphy style. I’ve also included: the name of the gallery, the name of the exhibition, the name of the artists, the date of the exhibition and also the website. Overall,  I’m very pleased with the outcome.

Graphic Design- Vinyl Project

For this project i had created a moving Vinyl using Adobe After Effects software. This Vinyl is representing all work thats currently in my sketchbook and also typography books. Personally i thought that using my lino prints would work well and it also helped experiment further with my design ideas for my final poster. This Vinyl is quite quick and sharp when the images are changing and i also included audio that consists of old radio sounds, which i think works well. There are so many different elements that i was able to include as there is an effect that really stood out to me called the difference effect, which makes the type/text in the Vinyl appear more vivid in colour and contrasts really well together. I also included type in the center of the Vinyl which i’ve called it ONLY LYNO and also inculded 05 which represents May the month that we are currently in. Overall, i’m very pleased with the outcome.

Graphic Design- Moving Poster

For this project i had created a couple of moving posters using After Effects software. These moving posters are based on my experimental lino prints from my sketchbook and typography books. Personally i found that creating the moving posters were quite challenging as all my work within my sketchbook is based on lino prints, which are considered as images. Although it was quite interesting in finding many ways to make these images move and to create a pattern on movement.

Graphic Design- Open Collab Project

This was a very quick project that involved bringing in a non tabloids newspaper, to then cut out any images, lettering, typfaces, shapes, numbers and symbols that looked appealing. My intension was to create a theme based on tralvelling, so i cut out images, typefaces and shapes that were associated with travelling and turned them into a collage. To create this collab project i took sections out of the collage such as: the architectural structure, the plane seat and a typeface, which was then brought into Adobe Illustrator to combine the few images with text that was relevent to the theme. Once our ideas were finalised i combined my collages alongside other students work, firstly by printing my own collage in blackand white then printing over it again using someone else’s work, which created these lovely outcomes.

Graphic Design- Final Zine

Here I’ve completed my final Zine with a similar approach to my mock-up, only I’ve used different coloured paper which I’ve found to have better quality comparing to the mock-up. Overall, I’m pleased with the outcome so far and I found this project very enjoyable.

Graphic Design- Adobe Illustrator Experimental

Here I’ve created sixteen experimental pieces based on my chosen theme which is Belfast. I had combined my sketchbook typography pieces and my first hand images of the historical, architectural buildings and structures around Belfast. I had experimented with various tools and effects, by using Adobe Illustrator.

My next stage is to create a hand made zine booklet, which I will then print out these experimental pieces and combine them into this zine.
