Posters

When I was a kid I had no posters. It wasn't till about a year ago that I started to put posters up in my room.  All of my posters except for one have to do with snowboarding. The other poster I have is for a dubstep artist called Skrillex. I also have a giant coors light poster that I got in Keystone Colorado last year. I broke my shoulder so they got it for me and everyone signed it like a get well card. I think what makes good posters is vibrant colors and 3D looking objects. What makes for a good snowboard poster is a good trick and a good backdrop. Backcountry photos normally work the best for snowboard posters.

Client Response

I decided to first work on the digital type face. I decided to do a shattered glass type look for the 3 letters, O, P, and Q, and for the the 3 numbers, 4, 5, and 6. I am just using photoshop to create this. I thought about using font struct but decided not to. The thing I plan on doing after that is the sculpture type face. As of now I am thinking of using paperclips, but that might change. For the paperclips, I plan on just linking them together. The last one I am going to do is the hand drawn type face. For this I'm thinking of making a bunch of different drawings to create a letter.

I think my favorite one out if these 10 would be the one with two sevens and the S. this was a fun project to do and it was cool to see how when letters and numbers are connected the different shapes and negative shapes that it can create

what is commercial art

I think that this class will be doing things with graphic design. Creating art on the computer is what I think of when I think of this class. Graphic design is used to create many things like posters, album covers, etc. Graphic design is creating digital art but can also be done by hand too. Many Companies use graphic design to create their advertisements for their products. You see commercial art everywhere. You see it on the internet, billboards, store windows, clothes. Commercial art has many different mediums as well. It can be surreal and very abstract. Graphic design is a growing industry and many new techniques are being made.
