DESIGN SKILLS. BRIEF 5. MESSAGE AND DELIVERY. DESIGN DEVELOPMENT.

STEP 1: Experimenting with tablet and drawing to illustrator on saturday. Actually really liked it. Developing my illustrator skills. ( as if had any:D) I couldn't use this so I made it to some fun poster about lines and cars, that doesn't really make sense. I couldn't use it for my final piece because it was too detailed and the brief was about communicating trough simple drawings.



made it simple:


made the cracked bumper sticker as well:


Took a while to trace the tool kit: 


Oh, actually at the beginning I printed out some pictures from the web, traced them by hand on paper, using the light thing (cannot remember the name for it) and did some experimentation and good old line drawing. I have to reconsider this pleasure of mine called 'lines' because they take me a lot of time to do. Well, anyways somebody (can't recall who it was) from the course said that the picture 2 look really interesting it's like a combination of beauty and simplicity. A good contrast. I couldn't use this illustration for the same reason i couldn't use the previous one. 





My layouts that I chose to design to:



I will revisit this brief tomorrow, because I don't really need the envelope. I like the idea that You find the information layer by layer, but it's really inconvenient and if somebody really wanted to print this massively it would cost them a lot of money. I'm going to redo the design of the folded piece and make it possible to post by using thicker paper and a sticky poster (with a car illustration)  that You would tour by opening, so if Your car is broken (torn) and then You find all the information about mechanics in leeds inside the folded piece (when unfold).

FIRST IDEA (that didn't happen) I tried to illustrate Henry Yunick that was the best mechanic in the world. I did some colour consideration , traced everything using the pen tool in illustrator. Thought trough the type that I actually used for the final piece. i used bebas.  I actually liked this illustration more than the tool kit, but the tool kit was more suitable to the whole idea of where to get your car fixed. I would have used this one for the NASCAR hall of fame invitation.
