Digital Media Arts from Illustrator, Photoshop, & In-Design
.Photoshop.
Soviet Era Poster Design.
(It says: "When Stag Beetles Attack!!")
8.5"x11", 2011
Mainly, we had to create a poster that reflected off the the Soviet Union design. Sadly, however, mine became Japanese/American... I'll try this format again another time. Made in Photoshop.
Digital Imaging - Project (One)
These three images are part of the first project we had to do in Digital Media.
We had to create three images that are photo collaged or montaged, and have at least one image that incorporates elements of hand drawing in it.
Time Changes. 8.5"x11", 2011
I really enjoyed creating these three 3 images, especially the one above and the one below.
Time Changes presents the then and the now in colorful, black & white, and stained images. Things get old, objects rot, I thought I present some of all elements, in this cluttered picture. Made in Photoshop.
Censorship. 8.5"x11", 2011
We censor so many things it's not funny, but then... we don't care for the violence and language nowadays that it makes one wonder. Music is always censored, but then certain movies are not. PG-13 movies have children saying a** or s**t. It's like WTF?! Made in Photoshop.
Temptation. 8.5"x11", 2011
Temptation is just one of those things you can't help with, both the good and the bad. Well, actually, temptation is just bad. Made in Photoshop.
Book Cover.
How to anger a Dragon in twenty days.
(Don't Try At Home!! )
by: Drakon Fury
8.5"x11", 2011
[Being sold in all stores this coming September]
This book cover was created in Photoshop and had to use elements of Photoshop in it, with one found image from the internet. I chose dragons, since the movie How To Train Your Dragon has been stuck in my head that day. This book is kind of useless in the sense that its a book on how to anger your dragon, and dragons are already angry.
Movie Poster. Project (Two)
Evil Twin 2:
When Santa Attacks.
Ho. Ho. Ho.
[In Theaters this Fall]
8.5"x11", 2011
You know those 80's horror films where the plot is useless, the monster is mediocre, and the family is just plain out stupid? Well... not all 80's horror flicks... but the B-rated flicks, yeah I hope you know what I mean. We had to create a movie based of something of our choice. If you haven't seen the Nickelodeon show, Hey Arnold!, then this movie would basically go over your head. So to catch you up, in Hey Arnold! they have this recurring movie called Evil Twin it's in a series on the show so every once in a while you'll hear Evil Twin 2, or 3, or 4 and so on and so forth... So to relate to that theme of movie, I created my own. What if Santa had an evil twin named...well, Santa? It would be an interesting movie right? Made in Photoshop.
.Illustration.
Note: All images and fonts do not belong to me but those who created them. Images that were purely done in Illustrator are mine however.
I sometimes feel like I could have done better in these pieces... they feel like they're missing something. I do like them, I just feel a bit iffy around them. Anywho...
Logo.
Purr-fect World
8.5"x11", 2011
The logo project was to create a logo using only the things provided in illustrator to create a nice looking logo. This looks okay, though, I do believe I should have done more to the cat. It looks a bit like blah... and then there's the fact that it looks a bit like a monkey.
Monkeys and cats. Cats and monkeys.
They have almost the same form, one's just a feline and the other is just a primate... argh!
Done in Illustrator.
Magazine Cover.
travel around the world
8.5"x11", 2011
I love this Magazine cover!!! We had to create a magazine cover using images and illustrator. Mine, obviously, is a travel magazine. I would like to add more, however, but can't tell where or what... I do want to say the person from DeviantArt, that I used her picture, but I don't know who or what her name is... So... here's your pic and thanks for letting me use it! :) Done in Illustrator.
Image Manipulation Project.
Her Ruby-Jeweled Ring
8.5"x11", 2011
This is...well, art, that I created. I can't really say what exactly it is, but it's art and I like it. I feel it should be incorporated with some sort of piece like a background poster in an animation or something, or even an advertisement. I love how I manipulated the circles... they're so, bubbly. Done in Illustrator.
Final Project - Video Game Poster.
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
19"x13", 2011
It's my game poster! Ain't it awesome! I chose the Legend of Zelda because it's the only game I know so much about but don't really play. Haha. I do wish I could make all the characters in illustrator instead of just Midna. I might just do that and put it as a post rather than a page since it never made it to class. Done in Illustrator.
Hey did you notice what my favorite color is?
It's used in all these pictures.
.In-Design.
Newsletter
Artist name: Greg "Craola" Simkins
Art type: Dreams
8.5"x11", 2011
Craola Simkins creates pieces of art that are just, WOW! He does graffiti, drawings, and paintings. Most of his work is strange and weird with an appealing sight to it, and then there are just pieces that are strange. His art pieces make you wonder what in the world was he thinking and then they also give you the sense of deja vu of old and new characters that were in both your childhood and present.
This Newsletter was done in In-Design.

Brochure
Vulpes vulpes (Foxes)
11.67"x16.54" (A3), 2011
For my Brochure I chose foxes, they sneaky little critters that look so cute and cuddly and yet are vicious and sometimes have rabies. I also chose them due to the fact that I couldn't think of anything and that everyone else seemed to be doing what I wanted. If I could do another subject it would have dragons.
Booklet
Artist Name: Alex Pardee
Art Type: Uhh...
5.5"x8.5", 2011
Artists, Greg "Craola" Simkins and Alex Pardee, are my favorite because of the fact they create these strange images that are just so appealing and strange that you want to keep looking at them. Anywho, my booklet is of Alex Pardee and is most interesting and appealing works. I wish I could have put more images in it, but then it wouldn't be exactly a booklet but a picture book. This Booklet was done in In-Design.
