2D 2 Project 1 Que Sera Sera Process

This week after the research and exploration, I have decided all my jobs which are:

Gambler

3D Modeller

Astronomer

Chinese Calligraphy Artist

I did some brainstorming for each of the ideas and here are some sketches.

After some consultation, I make my mind and chose the one the I like the most from these ideas.

For Gambler, I will use the idea of a jackpot slots machine. As it gives people a direct idea of gambling and the characters of my name will be appearing in the slots. Challenge is to make the type more obvious and stand out in the graphics.

For 3D Modeller, I will create some 3 dimensional objects with some softwares and render them out. Still need to work on it more as I still haven’t come out with the final design of the objects. Some reference image.

For Astronomer, the idea now is to create a moon surface and the typography will appear as the craters on it. (Low poly moon??)

For the Chinese Calligraphy Artist, it will be straight forward. Either using chinese ink to create my name or I am thinking to design a stamp.

Gonna to work for the draft of my finals next and hope I can finish them soon!

Stay tuned for my next update coming soon~cool

2D 2 Project 1 Que Sera Sera Research

For this first project, we will have to create typography portraits using our names. We have to combine conceptual images and letters to convey the information which are the future jobs. Typography is simply the art and the technique of arranging type. It provides more details throughout the design and make more straight forward to the people that see it. To come out with my own typography is kind of exciting as I have never been into typography before and therefore, I googled some artist’s works that I feel are quite cool.

coca_cola_hebrew(Andy Warhol) When the colour and the font are correct, we will know what is it. This design has been kept constant for years, its simple and yet very classic.It does not feel old and its very attractive due to its colours used. I think its the power of design.

The four jobs that I plan to do for typography are:

Astronomer

3D Modeller

Gambler

(still thinking)

Overall, I am still thinking on how to customise each design. I hope to make them simple but portray the messages effectively using different elements like the choice of the font, size, colour, visuals… So stay tuned for my works, coming soon!
