week 4

Concept: This was my first run with adobe illustrator on its new platform. I went about using the pen which is the fundamental tool of the program. I show that i have the basic concept of the program and assignment to an understanding.

Composition: The whole image started off as lines at one point, with some curving to the lines and some coloring effects I created this image. On my name I chose to add a gradient pattern, as the the other fills were somewhat boring to me. The car was all free hand with the tools. I layered the body, wheels, and interior shots in seperate categories to organize the grpahic for later editting

Craft: This image was done only on adobe illustrator. Every part was done this way because it seemed the best, as i did play around with positioning layers. The whole task took literally minutes on the hours, if i was to freehand this it would have token quite longer.

 

*Craft- This picture has alot going on in it. The man crossing the street shows life in the city as appose to life in the suburbs, walking for groceries is not really something you see around my house. I stood at the corner and got alot of visual information such as the street sign and the business signs

*Composition- The business and restaurant signs show the cultural diversity in the Roger Park area. This specific area was mainly Indian/ Pakistani. It really made you feel as if you were in a different country within the city. This part of the city is quite old and I chose to show the architecture as it is obsolete nowadays.

*Concept-The everyday life in the city was really my concept here. The day light gives you the "everday" type feel. Although chicago is synonymous for its hectic weather conditions, the lighting and the color in this photo are very neutral and easy to look at, although there is not really that much going on, you can tell that this town never sleeps.
