This series is about showing a variation of what can be created in Adobe Illustrator. It's about showing a wide variety of tools and colours in order to create a wide variety of images that all give a very different look and feeling. I'm showing them to my audience in order to not only show my teacher my knowledge of Adobe Illustrator, but to show the design community as well. This is important because it's good as a designer to know the tools available to me to create the best work possible.
Gradient City - Movement, Pattern, Balance, and Value,
What was learned here was the use of space and the best way to use it when only gradient black and white is available to you. The tools used were the shape tool, paintbrush tool, gradient box, and the line tool to name a few.
Purple Rain- Colour, Texture, Pattern, and Masking
What was learned here was the use of how to make my own pattern, and how to use different colours to make sure they blend well when put over each other. The tools used were the pattern tool, and the shape tool to name a couple.
Donald Duck- Character Tracing with the Pen and Brush Tools
What I learned here was how to combine and shift shapes in order to create the unique shapes combined to make Donald Duck. To do this, the shape tool, the pen tool, and the colour palette was used.
Black and White Icons
What was learned here was how to combine simple lines to create simple shapes and focus on the use of space and simplicity to have an idea come across when looking at the final icon. To do this, the line tool, and the shape tool were used to name a couple.
Time Magazine- Space
What was learned here was how to combine a series of images, text, and a series of colours and how to combine them in order to show all the information in a attractive and clear manner. The tools used here to name a few are, the text tool, the colour palette, and the shape tool.
