For the first month of Graphic Design class, we were assigned to create a letter of our choosing in a manner that conveyed a concept. For this project, I chose the letter "e" and designed around the concept of elegance. To begin the project, we were tasked to draw 20 thumbnail sketches of our letter. This step led to peer review by members of our table in which we narrowed down the 20 sketches to two as our final.
FINAL:
After these steps in our process, we were assigned to draw two initial drafts of the letter and design we chose. I ended up coming up with a detailed design for my letter while doodling in math class. After our two drafts were completed we had another peer review session to give feedback to others about their drafts. This process helped me decide which concept I should do for my final design.
This project was not too challenging for me because, honestly, I spend class time doodling letters and different fonts. I really like how the final product turned out. Initially I wanted to trace the entire letter in Sharpie, but our teacher, Ms. Lee convinced me otherwise so I did the final entirely in pencil. I really enjoyed this project because I spent a lot of my own free time looking at fonts.
Joyce you think you're slick? You just added that picture and you need one more. But the design is clean and simple.
ReplyDeleteI think that the font of your "e" is an elegant and clean design. I also liked how you shaded the letter differently at different places because it brings the letter out more. Also, that's a great way to spend class time; I should do that.
ReplyDeleteI still would've preferred your elephant because it's cuter. But I like how you shaded all around the letter which made it more 3-D.
ReplyDeleteI admire the pop-outish the letter appears and also how it is very simplistic.
