Monday, 12 November 2012

this is my drawing of the how to
Oliver Jeffers work catch a star book i created my artist
image sketch i got the original
this is a picture of the image and placed it on photoshop so
boy i had to colour in i could use the eye dropper tool to
on photoshop i had to copy the image colour and use in
multiply the layers to my image the process was quite hard
get colour in the image trying to get where the colour meet
and then trying to each other and trying to blend the
match the colours that image the rocket was quite straight
are shown in the book forward to make i gridded both of
zooming into the image the images so i could get the rocket
to get a fine line i the right place the image is still
colouring of the image incomplete
i like how i got the
colours and not this the final project i did for the Oliver
overlapping any of the Jeffers portfolio we had to create a page
background form his book the incredible book
eating boy this is the final project
together the task was to create the
this is an image i had to draw of Oliver image on blog website with some the
Jeffers penguin i had to draw from the images there for us or we had to
guide he gives in the guardian following complete the rest of the image and then
the step by step guide i created the place the image on the final photoshop
penguin following this the image is a bit master the image required a lot of tools
jagged but i am quite pleased with the such as the eyedropper tool paint
outcome i had to change the opacity to bucket zooming in images creating new
get different colours to fit with the layers and renaming them getting the
image such as the shadow and the image in the right place the best one
orange bit on his chest layer is the boy eating the book it came
out perfectly


Eric Carle this a book i also enjoyed
when i was younger and it
was Brown, Brown bear,
Born in Syracuse, New York, in 1929, Eric
Carle moved with his parents to Germany what do you see i had a go
when he was six years old; he was and drawing the front
educated there, and graduated from the cover a s my artist image
prestigious art school, the Akademie der sketch
bildenden Künste, in Stuttgart. But his
dream was always to return to America,
the land of his happiest childhood
memories. So, in 1952, with a ﬁne
portfolio in hand and forty dollars in his
pocket, he arrived in New York. Soon he
found a job as a graphic designer in the
promotion department of The New York
Times. this is my image of a Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle the task was to
make my own by ﬁrst creating round circles and just getting the shape of
this is no doubtfully Eric the caterpillar we then added some different colours as it like in the
Carle most famous piece of image after that i added the head again making a circle with the shape
tool after that i then added some detail to the image making the ears
work the Hungry purple and then adding the feet the yellow outline was made quick
Caterpillar that always well selecting the image and then just highlighting the outside line i got then
known to children and extend the line a bit and clour in only the area that was selected i then
added the eyes and mouth ti am most pleased with the feet because i
most adults well be very really looked closely at them and then copied the colour patern
familiar to this book and i
had a go and re-creating the
image on photoshop


this is my name in my own font the idea of once the letter is on the grid the layer had to be
this writing task was to make are font on multiplied so that it doesn’t overlap the grid lines
paper so we could create are own name and makes it easier to line up the text to fit in
in a style we would like we first had to the box provided i had to do this for all the text
make the guide lines with two lines at the but after it was done i had a full alphabet in place
top and two at the bottom at the same with 0 to 9 in place the grid is complete as you
distance apart with that we use the guides can see below.
to where we want the letter to go and this is my alphabet text again but this time i had to spell Media

also show where they will end at so if the National with the letters on a blank piece of paper on photoshop it

letter starts at the top it would finish at required the same task as the alphabet grid by copying the text from

the third line and if started at the second the scanned image of my text and then placing the letters in the

it would go to the bottom or if the letter middle for the first time i had to use more the same letters twice but

was an a or e in lower case then it fit in it doesn’t make a lot of difference as you still keep the letters from

the middle of the page as it does not have the other page i put all the letters in middle with National starting

a tip that goes over or under the line. closer to the edge and nearer the edge to make it look better and
with my alphabet and number text done and now not start at the same place with National going near the edge. there
uploaded to my computer i can now place the text was some letters overlapping the other text so i had to multiply all
into a new file by copying all the text and numbers the layers so they don’t overlap
into a grid with the original text on them. i had to
the next task was to get the text and then put it on a sketchpad i first had to find an image online of a

blank sketchpad and i found the perfect one it had a pencil in the corner but it makes it look like that the
couldn’t download the link straight from it so i had
text has just been put on so it makes it a great effect. instead of copying and pasting from the scanned
to copy the image and then open the image in
image i kept the previous work which was the Media National work i merged all the layers together so
Photoshop once that was done i could then open
that it became just one layer and then i could just drag layer and then place the layer into the sketch pad
my text that i acquired from Nick and now i placed
at first the text was huge and overlapped the sketchbook so i had command t and make the text smaller
in photoshop from there using the text box i could
and then had to make the sketchpad on top of the text and then multiply the layer and then place the text
using command c copy the image and then clicking
which i put it and the top and then placed at the side to make the image look like it had been written by
on the grid using command v i could copy the
pencil with the pencil at the side looking like it had just been used.
image


had to start doodling on photoshop just to make a

background image pattern and then crop a bit of the image that i
liked and then start to colour the image only using
4 colours i used green, yellow,red and purple
leaving the spiral white after colouring the images i
added a stain glass effect that added red lines and i
made the colours from the middle lighter almost
turning white to the colours from the edge normal
with some colours overlapping each other in the
picture after we done that we then had to copy
the image and then ﬂip the image to match the
otherside and keep doing this until the image size
is 2000x2000

i am very pleased with my image and makes look
very tripy and cool and best i feel was that the
corner of all 4 make a star which really works well
across the image and i really like that the image with
the stain glass effect i added after colouring the
image overall i am pleased with this picture and is
now the background n the desktop


Rosie Ball study
Rosie Ball is an ex long road student who went
as the picture shows Rosie makes the scene out of cardboard show
she can see the image from different angles and start the
storyboarding as well the images will show what the person can see
to the University of Norwich college of arts to and how she will want to design the game level with this in mind she
talk about her recently nominated for a bafta for can get the idea of how it will work in the Ipad for the gamer to see
her game tick tock toys which won the 2011 the cardboard does go into great detail as she says on her video that
dare to be digital competition. she studied games it really helps me to develop where i want my detailed images and to
art and design BA hons of where she extended see the image from multiple angles in the shot for the ipad or ipod
her knowledge of the gaming industry in her the picture above shows her shop for the game sweet land that she
winning game tick tock toys her role was to be made for her project in university and you can start to see that the
the 2D artist and the lead UI which meant she game doesn’t use a lot colour and it’s going to be a dark game and
was doing all the designing and drawing of the focuses on the main area of the game for the gamer to see when they
game are playing
once the design is done she then moves into the layout of the game onto
the ipad she has to make sure the image she is working with fits into the
screen and whats it to be in the right area for the gamer to see and
make sure that the game is easy for the gamer to understand and to
understand the rules and controls of the game and not getting confused
to make her game Rosie has to first sketch out the idea of her game
by how the game works it must be clear to her and to the player as well
and to get the detail of what she is going to make and how the game is
as her.
going to work she needs to design her characters how the scenes are
do work outside of school as this help will increase your confidence and
going to look like and then show how the game play is going to work
skill for future work
and how the player is going to understand this as well once she has
it’s good to be ambitious it might help with thinking of new ideas to work with
completed this stage she then can start going into detail of the game.
Don’t lose track of what you want to learn in your final year as
the game she made in university she had to make a flow chart so she
there are a lot of
can keep track of where she is and how the game process will work for
her to make the game successful


Tony Blair Portrait after making the face which i was very disappointed about i
this is a portrait of Tony Blair wanted to try again but this time just to focus on the face of Tony
my task was to make to copy of Blair firs t of all i gridded the original picture and put on the
this image but only cropping an rulers and the same on the new image so i could see where the
area of the image i liked the face starts and finish and the same for when it came to drawing
image because he just uses the the eyes, ears, mouth and nose this made the process so much
a blue colour for the whole easier to draw the picture above is the final result and i am very
image apart form the face but happy with this picture this really is the best piece i have done on
he makes the image around Tony photoshop the image i feel really looks like the real image and is so
blair stand out to get the main much better than the first image i draw for the whole image in
focus on him and really captures future i will work with grids as this made it so much easier to draw
the expression on his face and and see where the image lines up against the original image
the rose on his suit is drawn in
great detail on the design of the
rose

this is my first attempt at the
image at first i had a go at
drawing the whole picture i felt
that i got the body correct but
the problem was his face it
really didn’t go as i wanted it to
do so i felt that i could could do
the face again but just cropping
the face .


Comic strip
this is the second strip of the comics we made and we uploaded the
scaned image to photoshop and from there we strated to make the
image look more cleaner and much more presentable using
photoshop we could zoom in to the picture and from there we
this is the first piece of my comic strip that i made using a collage of could see where the image looks untidy due to the photocopier not
images from google but we had to use images that were allowed to be picking it up. when we zoomed we could see the black ink with lots
modified so we had to go to google images advanced search and then of grains so we needed to get rid of the the grains first of all though
and click on only images labeled for reuse only and we could search to we had to get rid of the grey outline of the black ink so clicking on
see what i could use for my comic there would be a few images that are the image at the top and then clicking on gradient we could move
relevant to use all the others are not even close to what you type in the the white colours to make the black ink stand out more and get a
search engine. the first piece i started with was the wall to get the clearer image of what was needed to be done. once we had that
background. the second step i took was to add the wooden floor so i done we could start to make the image look more better frst we
could get the balance between the floor and the wall after these were tried using the mouseboard and then went on to use the tablets
done i could go into detail of the room starting with the bed i took the which made it so much more easier to use for me and we
image and then using the quick selection tool starting from the inside i could draw a stright line just using one hand instead trying to control
could get the outline of the bed and delete the background and then the brush with two hands and keeping a steady balance. once we
place the bed in the comic strip making sure that the layer was on top gone over the detail parts that needed updating after that. i made the
of the floor and wall so it would not disappear into the background. i layer to go to multiply and then locked the layer and created a new
added the chest of draws in this was an easier picture to get out as it layer which i could use to colour in the image and ake it more like a
had no detail in the background so it was simple cut out into the comic comic strip i then started to colour in the whole image and now
strip. After that i added the alarm clock i couldn’t find the image i makes the image look so much more better and easier to look at for
wanted so had to get a picture of a slightly blurred image and had to cut the reader. i can also created shadows of some of the objects by
out the blurry parts of the image. once i had all the parts into the comic using darker colours it can stand out more the project is complete
i had to place the images into the right place and making sure that the and ready to be put in with the others for the comic strip for the
layers dont overlap each over and fit into the right places whole project

thin brush to create the scuffs and the bandages i also
made light black lines on the plaster to show where the

around the head earlier I had stopped the head around
half way.


The Hobbit Themes
With the first app tempt of a little white lies cover
done I could now look at the Hobbit trailer to
understand what the themes of the film need to be like
for the cover for this I took screen grabs from the
trailer and then explain about the themes in the film
that the viewer needs to know and how i can use this
for my project The second image shows a very dark cave the only
source of light is coming from Gandalf’s orb on the
end of his mast the setting is very narrow with a
small path way being the only visible object that you
can see the theme of the image is more dark and
suspense the audience know that the character is
walking into the unknown and the theme of the
the image shows a rural peaceful setting the mood of
image is to shows with the very narrow and barely
the image is very relaxed the characters show to be in
visible image. the mood of the image is very tense as
engaging mood talking to each other as family you can
we can not see what is in front of Gandalf and the
see the setting is very rural and has a lot of wildlife
audience would start to expect something is going to
built up around such as the tress and the over grown
happen. it sets the mood well for the film. the shot is
shrubs that have grown over the homes of the hobbits
from above so it like someone is watching him.
in the background see a blue sky and glorious green
hills in the background to show the audience a very
relaxed setting. the bright colours show the audience
that it is a very relaxed setting.

the ﬁnal image we can see again is in the cave but the
exit of the cave we the character standing at the exit
and the other characters sitting around the camp ﬁre.
the dark setting makes it again very tense for the
audience to watch but the difference is it looks like we
are seeing the characters from someone else’s
perspective to get the audience to know that
someone is watching them and this keeps the viewer
engaged to know who is the person or thing that is
watching it creates a very tense atmosphere the
visibility is hard to see but the main people who we
are meant to be focusing on are clearly the characters
for the audience to be looking at.


Hobbit Drawin
gs Thorin
With the Mood board done I could then move
onto ideas for the final cover. I did this by creating
the rough idea’s on paper using the style of Paul
willoughby I tried to create a drawing of Thorin by
creating multiple rough sketches of the figure of
him holding his bow and arrow to the middle of
the frame which I was going to make the main
focus point of the image as well as his face as it
rawn of
brings something different to view at and also it pts I h ad quickly d
creates a more interesting picture to view the first app tem k like the final product

More Hobbit Drawings

these are some more drawings of Thorin that have
done to help to get the ﬁnal image perfectly these are
very basic drawings but these are the start to help
me create the ﬁnal piece. the point of drawing these
quick drawings was to get the basic outline done for
the project later on
these are some of the earlier work I did of
other characters I thought of doing Before
deciding on drawing Thorin very basic drawing
very quick and rough with no detail at all these
were just the basic images that were done
within 2 minutes for each drawing of the
characters

before I started to draw the ﬁnal product on Photoshop
I wanted to draw the character in the style of Paul
Willougbhy because he mainly focuses on the face of
the character and it being the main theme of the work
which was something I wanted to do for this project so
I had a look at his work and also looking back at the
work of Owen willson that I had done it something that
I was keen on doing for the project so I had a little look
into his work to see what ideas I could take from him

This is not the ﬁnished version of th

is what I came up with before I did
some minor
tweaks to this version as you can se
e the image I
have created is fantastic and could no

pleased with this as it got everything
that I wanted
from this the image shows the charac
ters detail to
from the facial features that capture
the anger you
can see on his face. to the detail that
on the bow
with the dark green patterns that go
across the bow
which I feel give the character much
more detail to
the image because the image looks
very basic with no
detail on the character and this bring
s out something
that is very noticeable I also created
some detail on
the armour as well to give out for th
e audience to
notice and study with great detail . als

the ﬁngers look very impressive as th

problem that I struggled with at the

image looks like Thorin and all the de

exactly how I wanted it especially th

it makes the cover look more darker
and more
daunting to look at


Final Cover
this is the final version of my Li
ttle White Lies cover
the difference between the first
and last is that the
their is the trees that are distin
ctly in the
background to stop making the
image look flat I
also changed the colours of the
trees in the
background to make them look
more brighter than
the first image to create a very
luminous
background for example the su

to highlight Thorin the main char
acter of the cover. I
also changed the colour of his fac
e as well to see a
little bit more brighter on appe
arance, the eyes have
also been added with a white to
uch to show where
he is looking the lines on the tr
ees have been toned
down because the white lines w

needed the opacity changing to
make it look more

am so proud of
because it’s a project which I fe
