Semester Test Project

Good Morning! We will continue to work on our Geometric/Low Poly projects. You will need to incorporate a creative element into your images. This creative element could include:

Stroke color
Unfilled/unfinished pieces
Invented colors
Gradient Fill
Pieces Breaking off
Texture
Drop Shadow

Semester Test Project Concept Day & Practice

Good Morning! By the end of class today, you will have brainstormed ideas for subjects for our Semester Test Project: Geometric Design or Low Poly and started to practice on a simplistic subject of your choice.

1. Make sure you have posted your Illustrated Quote and our your drawing over a photograph images.
2. Start researching: low poly, geometric graphic design, geometric animal, geometric portrait and brainstorming ideas for subjects! https://rooseveltgraphicarts.wordpress.com/projects/create-a-geometric-animal/
3. Find a simplistic image (fruit, food, bird, etc. ) to practice on.

 

Student Final Project Examples:

Brandon:Kenly:

Directions: Set your fill to none and stroke to white and .25 weight. Start creating triangles with your pen tool that connect at the edges. Make your triangle sides overlap so you are not adjusting so much at the end. You choose the size of the triangles/shapes. Use your eyedropper tool to fill once you have a collection of shapes.

Good Morning!

 

Upload your Illustrated Quotes projects to your blog. Answer the following questions on your blog post:

1. Why did you choose your word, quote, or saying that you did?

2. What words were the most important and how did you emphasize them?

3. Explain why you choose the photograph and picture that you did.

4. What tools and/or effects did you use in Illustrator?

Tomorrow will be the last day in class to work on our short project: illustration over a photograph and post them to our blogs.

Take a look at various examples:

 

Interior Spaces

Today will be our last day working on our Illustrated Quote project. Think about final details: subtle gradient, subtle texture, arrangement of text. When you are finished, save your work. We will upload these to our blog with our Interior Spaces Project on Wednesday.

the Interior Spaces project will be a short 2-3 day project. You may choose to photograph the hallways at roosevelt, find a photograph you’ve already taken, work with a portrait of yourself, or browse and find images on https://unsplash.com/

Your goal is to do a simplistic illustration over your photograph in whatever style you prefer: Think geometric shapes, lines, organic shapes, blur tool, etc.
