Logo Development: Illustrator

These are my development of my logo experiments using Adobe Illustrator techniques. I used several graphic design techniques such shape merging, using the rotate tool, creating pattern swatches and the clipping mask techniques this experiment helped me to get a better idea and understanding of what direction i wanted to take my logo in, in terms of design.

Final Poster




This is my final poster which I made by hand with string on large pieces of black paper and stuck down with masking tape. I then photographed it and used Adobe Photoshop to edit out the masking tape neaten up any mistakes to produce this as my final poster.

3D Typography Experiment

This is my 3D type made completely from only art books. We changed a single letter design multiple times till it was exactly as the whole group wanted, we made sure they were still readable while as out of the box as possible

Heebok Lee Typography Experiments


These are Heebok Lee inspired typography experiments that I made on Adobe Illustrator by simply changing the font and size of the text and adding a few effects on to them to relate them to Heebok Lees style of  kinetic typography which i think I achieved because they are so similar to his work.  

Food Typography Moodboard















This is a food typography moodboard that I made using food typography I found on the internet and Ed Rusca images that I liked and assorted them on the page.

Food Typography Experiments


These are my own food typography experiments that i made in my own time using shaving cream for the material and a pencil to right in the lettering i then used a ruler to neaten up the edges to make it as presentable as possible without spoiling the image. For the bottom creation I used lentils to write out this typography creation in a dot type font with the space i had left.

Si Scott Analysis


This is my Si Scott inspired creation made from pencil based on the word 'fly' some of the detail ahas been lost in the scanning process which means that the smoky detail which is only faint on this image is hard to see and also the different colours added to the lines is not  clearly visable on all of them

Oscar Wilson Inspired Calligram

This is my oscar wilson inspired calligram based in a plane design, I tried to make it aesthetically pleasing using a lot of different colours and as many shades of a single colour as I could. The original image was scanned on to the computer where I used Adobe Photoshop to clean up the image to a standard that I could start adding colour.
