Craft

This infographic was constructed to showcase the evolution of the Christian cross. This was made using Adobe Illustrator. There was a lot of skill used to make this considering that it take skill a great skill in computer programs to understand how to execute a successful design. Such tools in the program that was used would be color, copy & paste, pin tools, and more along with the skill to draw my ideas with manually. In all, the steps were simply to make a layer, create points of different objects such as the continents and the color coated system, and more. These are different as compared to each other simply because each update of the infographic become more complex.

Concept 

         This infographic was made to appeal to the sight of the audience. The layout of the map with its different continents, crosses, and guided text will allow other to understand it. I arranged it this way so that I can easily create a color-coded system and merge time into it with or with out it. The first thing that is supposed to be seen is the continents, and the second things seen is a text box that introduces and shipped locations is. The entire goal of the art in this infographic to represent the evolution of the cross visually with colors and symbols and as little number of words.

Composition

         The use of the brain in this infographic is that the left side begins to work due to the rise and others on the right slow out. The overall message that is going to be told is that the Christian cross has been changed for hundreds of thousand of years. This sacred symbol of a living sacrifice was not just know in America but in other countries such as Spain, Egypt, and Christo. There is the same composition when it comes to they varied infographics because they all show the same information just in a different way.

Week 7: Image Trace

Craft

This art piece was made from Adobe Illustrator. The tools used were the pen tool, the paint brush, the rectangle marquee, and other tools. In the creation of this image, the goal was to utilize tools to copy a realistic image manually. The first step would be to get an image that is not a photograph. The next step would be to create layers based on the placing of the things that are in the image.( Make a layer for the foreground and background) Then the tracing tools would be uses to outline the space that the object or area take s up. When compete the traced part should be changed to no color so that the image can be seem clearly. The last step would be to color the objects to areas copied and moved layers to your liking. This is how an image is traced in Adobe Illustrator.

Concept 

         The first thing on this image that should be seen is the the pyramids. Other than being the large object in the piece itself, it is symbolic to the new ideal of human memorial and honor for a god-like king. The next thing that should be seen is the sky because it is colored with many hues of blues and white. The last thing that should be seen is the sandy ground that is slightly colored black and brown due to the time of day it is.

Composition

This piece is telling the audience that theses ancient ruins are very important to the  history of man kind. With this said, it is also important because of the history of war that knocks the importance of these ruins off the chart because they have been manipulated and tampered with. It is important that we recreate these grand ruins so that when they are destroyed due to human evil, there is a trace of the ruins in some way.

Week 10: Infographic

There was a lot of skill used to make this considering that it take skill a great skill in computer programs to understand how to execute a successful design.

I arranged it this way so that I can easily create a color-coded system and merge time into it with or with out it.

Week 8: Infographic 1st Draft

Creating Infographics

       This is my first attempt to create an infographic using adobe illustrator and creative website tools.

In this one, the crosses are laid on top of the continent to show where it came from. Also, the continents are made of many colors to bring more contrast between them.

Concept

I arranged it this way so that I can easily create a color-coded system and merge time into it with or with out it. The first thing that is supposed to be seen is the continents, and the second things seen is a text box that introduces and shows where the locations of the featured cross. Though the text box is the largest add-on, it is not relevant to the crosses except for guiding the viewer through a timeline of when and where the cross originated from.

Composition
           The use of the brain in this infographic is that the left side begins to work due to the rise and others on the right slow out. The overall message that is going to be told is that the Christian cross has been changed for hundreds of thousand of years. This sacred symbol of a living sacrifice was not just know in America but in other countries such as Spain, Egypt, and Christo. The first pace to look would be mostly the text box because it is big and it also gives instructions. it is from there that the piece would be understood and further navigated.

Week 4: Refined Letters

Crazy Red Crunchy Font
Adobe Illustrator

Craft
           This infographic was constructed to experiment with the stools of adobe illustrator. The purpose was to use the tools provided to stylize text and create new fonts in preparation for created artworks. The tools in the program that was used would be the paint brush, copy & paste, pin tools, and more along with the skill to draw my ideas with manually.
Concept 
         This created font was made to appeal by sight. The use of the style of thick boarders brings out the outer edges of the font. It appears to be very crinkled, chalky, and crunchy, which is why it is an original font because it is stylized differently than others fonts.
Composition
           The parts of this font that should stand out should be the edges. This is because they are creating contrast both surrounding the letter and outlining the negative space. In this, the letters portray themselves as more than slim, straight figures like other formal letters but as crazy, rebellious, figures that can do the same.
