This production log documents a student's progress in creating a digital graphic for a computer games design course. Over several dates, the student created the background using simple shapes, added a bike by tracing its outline and filling color, and then worked on the main character - giving him a crossbow, changing his jacket color, adding detail to his face including depth to his eye using overlapping layers, and finally adding a face mask and putting the completed graphic into a frame.

Production Log

I created the image on the right in Photoshop and once that I had created the image using
different images and then I put it in to illustrator and then I went over the image.
Date:3/12/13
i have started to create the back ground of the image I have changed it because the back ground was
too complex and detailed for the program that I was using so I made it simple and it has worked well
to create the back ground I used the pen tool to draw around the ground and then I used the fill tool
to get the right colour.
Date:4/12/13
i have removed the layers so that I could see the bike and this made It easier to create the bike
and to do this I also used the pen tool and I traced around the bike and then I added the colour

2. to the bike.
Date:9/12/13
i have stared the main character and I have also finished the crossbow on his back to do this I
zoomed In and this made it easier to get the detail in and I have also changed the colour of his
jacket because I did not like the first colour that I had used.
Date:10/12/13
i have started to add the detail on to his face and to do this I have used the pen and I over lapped the layers to create the effect that
his eye has depth and it also looks real.
Date: 16/12/13
i have finished the other side of the his face by adding the other eye and I
could not decide on what to do for the bottom of his face so I decide to
add face mask to the face and once I had done that I added the back
ground and the n I put the picture in to the frame to finish it off.
