8th-14th January Weekly Update

-

 At the start of the week, we were told to complete a few tutorials to help gain experience using Photopea.

The first video I looked at was wrapping a logo onto a coffee mug. I chose Dr. Pepper logo and searched on google images to look for a simple coffee cup.




The end result was much better than I thought it would turn out.


I love the way the wrap adds the shadows to the logo making it look like an actual cup. I had to warp the logo to make it look like it was actually going off to the sides by bending the corners up and stretch the image a slight bit.

Right after the cup was a cartoon type filter, this one was the most challenging out of them all.
I chose to filter the live action 'Witcher' TV series.
Before:


There was a lot to do and to be honest, I've forgotten most of the step already.
It took a lot of filtering and recoloring. The layers exceeded over 10 really quickly within the span of only 3 minutes.
After:

The next video I looked at was creating a 'fire' effect on text. It was the coolest out of the ones I did and the most technical out of them all.

I started with simple large text spelling the word fire, I then used a distortion tool with a subcategory called 'ripple'. 

Then when it come down to the text colour, I made it a nice vibrant orange as highlighting would come right after making it look really nice compared to just the word 'fire' with the ripple effect added.


Lastly, the easiest one, was a video showing how to bend text.

It was fairly simple with Photopea having a warp text tool that allows you to chose a way the text is warped.

I chose a banana and the word 'banana' to make it as simple as possible.

After:

This all continued for the two days I was in college...

Online Software To Help With Character Design No.2

RanGen.com : This software is incredible, I would use this regularly. It gives off loads of information for random characters and it has many more features than the last one I wrote about. I love that it gives so much about their appearance. It really gives way for concept art to be drawn of them. I really like the personality section due to its simplicity but yet effective use of many words to describe a person in a very short space. I love the detail it gives, who thinks about randomly generating 'personal status'? These guys. To even add a job with a satisfaction percentage takes much attention to detail. Love the idea of Marital status and how it shows their preference to gender. Shows that the people who made this took their time to think about the quality and the detail to offer. This is another feature I quite like. To add Religious views along with world and racial is an amazing feature to have as it makes thinking about characters views so much less time draining. I al

 So far i have started an assignment Unit 3&4 - Understanding an Audience. i am at the moment focusing on 1.2 as i have done the research needed to think about how the two digital products advertise to their target audience. I chose Spotify and Canva as they are two very different products but they advertise very similarly. I explained what Canva is and how it's a products for designers trying to seek out easy but easy to professionalize their design. I wrote about how Spotify is a online music streaming service that provides recommendations for new songs through lots of use. It was really easy as the internet was there for me to do some secondary research to find out how Canva advertises and what Spotify does to keep its good reputation across the internet. I wrote about both their income and how they quickly rose to fame. I wrote about who their target audience is and how they advertise to their needs. Both target a variety but stay in a category. Spotify targets people who l

1-7th December Weekly Bog Post

This is a weekly update. At the start of the week I took a picture of the outside of my house because I really liked the look of it. The fact that it was icy with completely dry patches where cars where overnight, seems really cool and gives me vibes like as a game progresses, the map around starts to change as well. Love that in certain games, you get objects in houses that are animated to move around which I really like about Graphic Designers and how they build and animated loads of stuff in games to then have that game to be really detailed but has a lot of space. The concept of tiny details being added is very cool. I really like minute details in games as it adds to that sense of hardship and dedication it must have taken to make something so small but in large quantities. I shows much perseverance and I absolutely love it.  ___________________________________________________________________________________ On monday we started doing Photoshop.
