Bullying Poster Label

Jocelyn Taylor Class of 2013 Digital Arts 2 Adobe Illustrator & Adobe Photoshop My intent as a graphic designer was to create a contrasting design that divided the poster in half. This was to illustrate the two sides in bullying, and to make the viewer aware of which side they could fall under. The color choices were hard to make, as I wanted to create a feeling of warmth on the top and chaos and a sense of drowning on the bottom. My use of small words in some parts of the poster, river and sun, were utilized to further emphasize examples of bullying and its contrast, helping. The motion achieved by the river was to exhibit how easy it was, once someone falls in, to be swept away by bullying.

Portrait

Here is my portrait video! I had some difficulty on this project because I am used to painting on actual canvas. Doing this,  I worried about settings on the computer and blending especially. I'm also a perfectionist so it was hard to cut loose and just build up the image with layers. I like the hair the best in the end.

Anti-Bullying Poster

This is my anti-bullying poster design! I wanted to illustrate how bullying can come in all different forms and colors and while some bullying may seem innocent, it eventually drowns someone. The words in the river contribute to the drowning as they weigh people down and make it hard for them to seek out help. I wanted to make a contrast by giving the top section an opposite color scheme; this would demonstrate the difference between bullying and giving a helping hand to people.

Animation Joke

This is my animation joke! I learned a lot doing this project; squiggle-vision, Flash, and how to post a video on this Blogger. I wish I could have thought of a better joke, and that I could change the voices of the characters to they were more unique, but overall I really liked this project because it was fun to do and to see the end product.

Vector Eagle

This is a vector of an eagle. I got the image of this eagle off the internet. I did a vector before this one, but I like this better because I spent more time on it and made the details in the original picture pop.

Typed Tutorial

This is a tutorial I did in which I learned how to do paths and shapes and types. I drew shapes with a tool and then used another tool to type around the shape or in it.

Vectored Face

This is my face vectored. I am SO glad I took Photo 1 as it has helped me know my way around blogger even more. More coming soon!
