Week 4

Week 4

Type Part 1

For this week, we started off with being given a letter at random and being asked to fill a page with different font ideas. I was given the letter "V", and really enjoyed trying to fill the entire page with a variety of different ideas. I really liked how the styles changed the further down I got, as I started to lose ideas and had to be more open and abstract.

After this, we were asked to choose a word beginning with out letter, of which I chose "Violence". I chose this word as it has powerful meaning and imagery, which I chose to play with when creating an image. I decided to create a line drawing that was black and white, with a splash of red to make the imagery pop and the word within the image pop. I really like how this turned out, although I'm not happy with the colouring in as my pen ran out half way through. I would definitely develop this further by digitally designing it, or using paints to make the image pop more. 

After this task, we were asked to find a quote that involved our word and create an image involving this quote. I chose a quote I know from the book/film "Annihilation" on Netflix. Although the imagery I created for this quote doesn't correlate to the movie itself, I really enjoyed designing this image. It is deep and represents domestic abuse/violence, but its simplicity makes the image even more powerful. I would love to develop this further, possibly into an advertisement poster for the film or a domestic violence poster.
