visual organisation

eye movement- not directing is misdirecting 


Typical is left to right, up down. Make it natural. Eye goes to complexity first. light are attract eye esp by a dark area. diag guide movement


OPTICAL CENTER-  where human eye tends to enter page
compelling elemt to  move eye 


Z Pattern- eye goes in a Z


Effect design moves eye






-No more than 2 fonts total. Complement
-Avoid Uppercase
-Chose right font (fits theme and tone)
-Don't overuse complicated fonts

The Grid-
way of org contents by using margins, guidelines,rows and columns.
Modernism
Breaking info into chunks
distinct set of alignment-based relationships, act as guidelines

Every design uses diff grid
unity

A13 research & inspiration

 
     is a method by which a collection of words or images is collectively assembled. (wikipedia) 
    from consequences- a writing game. from surrealist
Surrealism- art that isn't real

Cartoony
Furry
Humorous

I liked the bright vivid colors used.
I liked the background and how the animals also have instruments as beaks and necks
I like how the swan acts kind of like a gateway to the rest of the piece and ii also love the wings

I just like how its all animal related and t fits together

Semester Reflection

I learned alot like how to use illustrator and how to use Layer Masks and Clipping masks

Next semester I would like to do a project that doesn't use pictures from the internet so we can show OUR style and not the internet person's style.

I think learning how to do a "paper craft" style on PhotoShop would be fun (I saw a tutorial on DeviantArt and it was a bunch of fun!)

Review Week 17

Yes, I learned serifs don't need to be curly
