Guys.. It's going to happen.. A LORE.. LOREEEEEEE and new Sans. Again.

MY BOY ZENITH IS INVESTIGATING THE SYSTEM?! that's not good.. Well let's just hope he won't get disappointed. PREPARE YOURSELVES. We have a researcher going around the place. :3

uhh... Bad news. I don't know what he looks like yet... Give me ideas.. Well it's gonna be posted. Soon. His intro..

I realized - I never drew hopper and bartik actually kissing (we won't count old pencil sketches) - so it's time to finally take it seriously

Post #4

Process:

This week focused on gridding just like how we currently are on our project. This is important because a design is only as good as its grid. It sets up a base for our text, images, icons, etc. Graphic design uses grids to create layouts that feel pleasing to the eye and makes the work feel organic and put together. I want to apply this by being specific on how I grid my poster. It’s important to have your text be nicely placed on your graphic and feel like it was meant to be there rather than it feeling off. Grids are a great way to set boundaries.

Process:

The image above are sketches for my poster on the Soda City project. As you can see I have many ideas and want to try to find a balance within the logo, type, and images. The gridding will be more obvious when applied to Adobe. I’m a visual learner so I like to see my design on the actual medium before making changes. My process is to continue to test out my sketches and images as I spent so much time on making the logo that I want that to be apparent in this next part of the project. I want my poster to look retro and distinct just like Soda City.

Bucket List Project

📝 Emma’s latest project in Intro to Graphic Design? A bucket list! 🎨 Using grids, bold colors & fun typography, she created a visually balanced, eye-catching design. What’s on your bucket list? ✨ #GraphicDesign #BucketListGoals #CreativeProcess

Bucket lists are a great way to start off the New year! I I think that everyone should make a bucket list or at least think about what might be on it. Bucket lists can help people with lots of things such as: Focus: Bucket lists help you focus your thoughts and intentions. Motivation: Bucket lists can help you stay motivated and make you feel accomplished. Learning: Bucket lists can help you…

Im am regularly thankful to live in my city, as it is mostly a grid system with the majority of high-ways being on the edge of the city.

Looking at any other city stresses me the hell out

Delray Beach, FL, Oct. 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global Circuit Breaker Market size is expected to grow from USD 6.5 billion in 2023 to USD 8.6 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 5.5% according to a new report by MarketsandMarkets™. The circuit breaker market growth is driven by various factors, including increasing investments in power generation, particularly from renewable energy sources. There is a rising global demand for secure and reliable power supply, along with growing capacity additions and improvements in transmission and distribution (T&D) networks. Additionally, the railway sector is experiencing accelerated investments, contributing to the expansion of the circuit breaker market.

More analog algorithms

Following up on https://codeandcanvas.tumblr.com/post/753299978126016512/welcome-back-i-was-having-issues-with I worked on better understanding (and better counting boxes, more on that below) how these permutations progress.

The examples provided in “Analog Algorithm” this far are visually appealing, and along with some experimentation on my own, I expect to improve my own skills as a graphic designer further.

But first, a mistake.

When you work with the samples in the book, you can use the final shape in the bottom right square to check for mistakes: if you make a mistake in the application of the algorithm, the final shape will look different from the one in the book. Same applies to the individual shapes in the columns and rows: each should look like a progression from its neighbors.

So, when my final shape didn’t align with the author’s, I assumed that my grid was wrong.

I was working at a reasonable canvas size of 1m by 1m, so that I could do fractions more easily: each larger square in the grid is 8cm on its side, broken up into a grid of 8 by 8 1cm squares, while the whole grid is made up of 8 of these larger squares on its side.

And, looking at my algorithm and the author’s, sure enough, I imagined to see him use a grid of 9 by 9 1cm squares. I was sure. I even laughed about how tricky he was, making sure I was paying attention. So I redid the grid with the new measurements, and applied the algorithm to that, too.

So, looking at the final shape on the bottom right, I knew I messed up. I messed up so badly, I started to consider whether or not the author made a mistake in his algorithm.

I took a breather, and then understood that the smallest grid was not a nine by nine grid at all, but always was an eight by eight grid.

So I did it properly this time, checked for mistakes and misalignments, and ended up with the finished permutation grid, which is also correct:

And I happen to find a lot of appeal in these. Maybe you will, too.

Blog Post #4: Griding

The images being displayed are my process throughout our 2nd project. I wanted to keep my options open when using prints, so I had about 25-30 usable cardstocks for testing. This is in case I messed up or didn’t like how the print looked on my grid. My strategy was to start simple with my first grid, then continuously get more experimental with my 2nd and 3rd. I wanted to show my journey from comfortability to risk. 

I wanted diversity in typeface and size so my boards looked interesting yet purposeful. My biggest struggles were making precise cuts on the cardstock and printing on the actual cardstock. I had to think ahead and make many adjustments on the photocopier so that I got the results that I wanted.

Overall, I’m content with how the project turned out. I would say my favorite grid is definitely the first one, as it feels more equal and the grid is more apparent. I found difficulties with my second and third grids as the shapes became more complicated and it was harder to figure out where to put each shade of white, gray, and black.
