The clouds were the first digital painting we started with in BDM142 Fundamentals of Digital Design. The process included learn-ing how to make a back-ground with a gradient and using the Graphics Tablets. Personally I found this difficult at first but after some time it was quite easy.

Clouds

I found painting these clouds easier because I have learnt a small bit about clouds in meteorology. The clouds I drew were mainly Cirrostratus, I also drew a Cumulonimbus as well. I found that knowing more about the subject you are drawing makes it easier on yourself. In saying this it made me quite fussy with the Final Product.

The Sphere Project

I liked making these Spheres, they started off as just digital

painting onto a back-ground image, and then into a Mirror Sphere. At the end of drawing the normal spheres mine had started to

look like planets. The Mirror Spheres

were just when we took the colours we used from a

background image, you would use the eye dropper tool to

select these colours and your brush would get smaller and smaller as you go along. Then to give it the mirror look you use the Burn and also the Dodge

tools.

183 Days is my idea for a short film. The film follows a teenager is in a futuristic video game rehab facility, he struggles through the grieving process after the loss of his friend.My first idea was a hospital door and a start new Game? button, I ended up not liking this idea because I thought that the finished poster would be too much for the simplistic idea of the film. Since the film is more about the Boys personal struggle

with himself I chose to make a face on Mud Box and use that on a black back-ground. The idea behind the red lighted figure comes from a short film by Bertie Gilbert called Tick Where It hurts. This film inspired my idea so I decided I would show this in the poster. For the title I went through many fonts and ended up using this one because I felt it had the same look as from a Game.

For My second Assessment I firstly decided on making posters for one of my favourite films, its Kind of a Funny Story, originally a book by Ned Vizzini. I decided to make post-ers relating to the essential human organs, such as The Brain, The Heart, and The Lungs. In the Movie and the Novel brain maps are mentioned a lot, the patients draw them as relaxation devices. For the 3D aspect I wanted the Building in the maps to be made with Mud Box. This turned out to be quite aspirational and time consuming. This was where this idea col-lapsed and I started again.

My next Idea was a series based on the for-gotten Hamelt Character of Ophelia. I used picture I had taken of my sister as Ophelia. I had a line from the Play Hamlet, as a tag line up the top of the posters in 3D as well as the title.

During this assessment I also had a play around with making my own logo to go on the bottom of my work. I put this on the bottom of each poster.

During the second assessment we learnt how to make Gifs in photoshop. This was a lot easier than I had anticipated.
