Personas of Audiences

Below I have some rough sketches of my target audience, which is everyone so below I have pictured the elderly, kids and adults. I think everyone should be included when it comes to art, from a young age we are taught to do arts and crafts in school, why not carry it with you throughout your life.

Grid At Work

The first picture is where I work, this is a grid at work since there are windows all on the side of the building and it does turn out to an even grid. They are evenly spaced so that the business above the bank has the same amount as the business on the bottom. The dresser below is from my house and the drawers are a grid because they are even in space in depth to hold all of your clothes.

Found Typography

Typography is also another large component in Graphic Design, It allows us to portray a message through text in a certain way or to paint a picture. Below I found this typography on a billboard for Chick-Fil-A, and it is painting the image that the cows are painting “eat mor chickn” in fact portraying the story that these animals that can not speak are creating this billboard. 

The other picture attached is a book I am reading for English, And the typography on this book is pretty plain and simple but the graphic themselves seems to be more appealing. There are 12 blue circles on the front cover one of them is replaced with a marble, this gives the illusion that there is more than meets the eye.

Elements of Design

These key elements of design allow us to create an image to portray or get a message across to our desired audiences through imagery. 

Shape- can create different mood or feeling, ex. sharp angled edges- anger, or annoyed where as  soft rounded curved edges- lighter happier mood

Line- used to create style, divide space and create form to a piece

Texture- associated with sense of feel, draws your audience to pay more attention to your graphics

Color- also used to portray mood, create a theme for the piece, as well as perception of a product or image.

Pictured here is thumbnails we did in the beginning of this course to start to get the hang of the different elements of design.
