Tutorial meeting

-

During the meeting with Sam, we discussed my progress in the Main Project and what I should do next. 
We agreed on the name of the project, which is Punk's not Dead and name of tattoo studio - 77 , as  in 1977 punk has began in Poland. I am strongly connected with this year. That was symbol of polish punk and number 77 was printed on the t-shirts and cassette tapes. However in the UK , the beginning of punk is dated a year before, when the Sex Pistols played their historical gig at the Lesser Free Trade Hall in Manchester.
Following posts on my blog should be a research into tattoo artists Sailor Jerry and Thomas Riley and also handmade punk aesthetic – Fanzines -Sniffin Glue etc. I will do lots of hand drawing punk related stickers and I will create a cover to the punk zine magazine. Ideally, for this project I should give up digital drawing, would be perfect if I will create everything by using simple techniques like hand  drawing  and photocopying. Back in 1977 in  was no procreate, iPad, internet and printers. The Zine magazine were created and drawn on a paper , then photocopied in the "xero shop" 

I will experiment with splashing ink or black paint to develop logo ideas for the tattoo studio called "77"
I will look for an inspirations in the "Repo Man" sci-fi comedy from 1984 and "Wild Abandon" Turkish Netflix series from 2022.

    There is no reason why you shouldn't use both digital and hand-made approaches, use all of the skills you have developed over the past 8 months for this project! So work by hand, digitise/scan the work and clean up in Photoshop/Procreate then print out and work by hand and so on.

Eco Academy Tote Bag mock up

 Finally I was bereave  enough to experiment with the Photoshop to create the tote bag for the school. I  started with the mock up picture which I found on the free mock up website, and I downloaded it on the laptop.  After transferring the picture to the Photoshop I used a clone tool to remove the design which was already there, however a few minutes after I have finished designing the bag I learned how to do it in completely different way. I knew I am doing something wrong as it took me to long .    I used the same free background logo which I created earlier in Procreate . I fit it to the tote bag size and I saved the picture in jpg, choosing "file" and " save as"  on the left top corner . I am happy with the results, the picture is sharp in a good quality.

 In my project I will draw illustrations to a short story for children, therefore this research will help me to find information and answer to the big question: " What's make the great children book illustration? "  There is many factors what I need to consider before I will start drawing: - the age group.  - type an style of illustrations suitable for this age group - the book style - how many illustration I will include in my page. - what to avoid in the illustrations for children To decide in what style I will draw the pictures is also very important. Is that will be more cartoony or scary or is the pictures are relevant to the story. For example soft and gentle illustrations would not be perfect for a story about monsters. Go to the library an look at the real children's book is a good place to find the inspirations.  Is important to decide how many illustrations will be included in the book and what type of illustrations they are. That will affect to overal layo...

project plan schedule

During the meeting with the Tutor ,we have discussed everything regarding to my project. I have introduced my ideas and my first sketches to the book. "The magic of the amulet" is a story written by my friend's daughter. There are three main characters - Abby the little girl who lives on the tropical Island with her friends: Olivia the dolphin and Patrick the crab. I already know how they will look like. I need to think how to draw the Island and mermaids. In my head it will be a magical and colorful,  fantasy World.  My first idea was to draw 4 pictures based on the story and to make front and back cover. The Tutor advice was to create two more pages as the story will be more interesting and easier to read for the children. We talk trough every page and I am convinced now that is good idea to draw two additional pages. I will use Procreate and Flipsnack and I will make a mock book  to be able to see how will my book look in real life. I was so excided with this idea , th...
