Day One:
Touching Grass
The first day I wasn't there so I couldn't make the pictures.
Day Two:
Childhood Nostalgia
On day two we had to make 15 analog experiments with objects that we found outside.
I needed to use objects from other people because of the fact that I hadn't gone outside yet. I lost all of the paintings so I can't show anything that I made.
I had a lot of struggle with this because we had to do "Quantity over Quality", but I focus a lot on the tiny details and I have autism so I would much rather spend most of my time on one experiments, than spreading out all of my time on 15 different experiments.
Day Three:
Touching Grass Part II
On day three we had to make 15 digital experiments with the pictures we made outside.
Seeing as I hadn't yet gone outside, I needed to do this today. I got all of the pictures within 30 minutes-ish?
These are the pictures I made:
These are the digital painting experiments I made:
These are the five I chose:
Day Four:
Analysing and Inventing Baby Names
On day four we had to analyse our pictures and pick our 5 favourites.
Then we needed to come up with two words for every painting that matches it and a thing it looks like it's a poster for, like a game.
TOP RIGHT:
Contrasted, messy.
An art exhibition.
BOTTOM RIGHT:
Fantasy, harmonious.
A fantasy game.
TOP LEFT:
Elegant, hallucinations
A plant house.
BOTTOM LEFT:
Natural, warm
Inspiration for a painting.
MIDDLE:
Unreal, cold.
Plants from another world.
Day Five:
Using Brain Cells and Writing Words
On day five we needed to practice with typography and fonts.
We got multiple words and needed to make a new font with them.
Day Six:
A kaleidoscope? I'm not five- sHaPeS aNd CoLoUrS
On day six we had to do something called the "Helvetica Opdracht".
We needed to make three different posters only using the font "Helvetica" and the colours red, black and white.
Day Seven/Eight/Nine:
Doing what we're best at, dEsIgNiNg
On these days we just needed to design the three posters.
I know, shocking.
I chose the picture below as my main picture for the three posters.
I honestly completely forgot to make more experiments but I have one experiment and then the three final ones.
Days Ten/Eleven/Twelve:
Designing Part II
On these days we just needed to finish designing and this very Behance and hand it in before 5 pm, Friday, December 8th.
We also needed to make mockups of the posters:
Conclusion:
I had a lot of difficulty starting with this project and making a poster that's actually believable, but in the final stages it all came together.
