Experiment 1: illustrator

Evaluated:

The experiments I did were illustrator and inking with the experiments I tried with album covers I used album covers that I thought would look the part with the different techniques to make them I was planning to do another experiment but I ran out of time I was planning to use  was a spray I was planning to spray the green day album "21st century breakdown" but I never got round to it because of my other experiments took longer than expected. I am happy with my experiments they turned out as I expected the illustrated version of the green day album "american idiot" looks almost exactly like the original and the inked version of Breaking Benjamin's "phobia" looks as I expected it but the both turned out well in my opinion.

Artest Copy 2

My Artist Copy

The Original

Evaluated:
I did my artist copy on Luke Chueh he did family guy artwork which i saw and thought looked really great so I thought I would have a try at doing a copy of his work. The work i chose to make a copy of was his Brian Griffin I made an illustrator copy of the piece of work I tried to make the burn in the wood that is, shown in the picture but it did not turn out like in the real image even though the copy is easily noticed I think it was a good attempt also gave me some ideas for my final piece which I used for the main logo of assassins creed to give a more modern look to the assassins creed franchise.

Roughs




Evaluated:
There is a show of how I refine my work with the roughs I made for the final piece which has a video of how I made them in the post with them these show the process in making them sped up so that the video does not go on for 30+ mins. The two posters that I made were in two different days near the start of the corse they both show a difference the videos show that I use Photoshop and Pixelmator I used both of these apps because they served the need of the posters I was making. if you look at the difference in the posters in the roughs you see that they all have, a different and similar aspect to them which makes them stand out individually.

Proposal

I will be making a movie poster for Assassins Creed books, games and videos the poster will consist of the same continuity from the posters as if it was the same just i different time period. The film is set in the 20th Century following the tale of Desmond Miles. As he is abducted and forced to relive the memories of his ancestors, his first Ancestor is Altier who lived in the 3rd Crusade at the start of the Assassins Creed his second Ancestor is Ezio Auditore who lived in the italian renaissance. the main focus is finding the Apple of Eden a historical artefact which gives the holder command over free will the apple appears three times in the Assassins Creed Franchise. it also appears in all the main games and also appears in the books but only briefly in all the of them the main focus is the war between the Templars and the Assassins. there are many Assassins but not many compared to the number of Templars in the book and the games the Templars are leaders of religions i.e. the Pope in modern day they would be in-charge of the most needed resource. The got more and more of an army the Assassins are limited to a low number because the Templars recruit assassins into there order, the Assassins may not know they are Assassins because of the time between there ancestors a few, know that they are Assassins but choose not to follow the brotherhood and others follow the brotherhood and recruit all the Assassins using a machine called the Animus which takes the subject to relive the memories of there ancestors because the person who created it believed that the reason every living creator knew what to do was because they held the memories of their ancestors deep in there subconscious. Using the Animus the Assassins are able to go through there ancestors memories and learn the way of the Brotherhood and also find the Apple of Eden the weapon which can be used to win the war between the Templars and Assassins.


Evaluated:
The proposal that I wrote up was for Assassins Creed a film which will depict the games showing the story from start to finish, in my proposal I talk about the storyline to the poster giving the image of what the poster will look like. the image I had in mind for the final piece has changed thorough the process of creating it the original idea was to have a small piece of each part of each game like a fades image, I have had to change the final piece again because of the different ways I made the poster using software like Pixelmator, Illustrator and Photoshop with these I have been able to make my poster with more types of effects to show the images for the film better the original design was for a black background with the main character's face filling the screen his face shaded out while the poster has written on the bottom "join the brotherhood 22/07/12" it would have been a simple poster that would stand out among other posters.

Brainstorm

Examples Of Others Work

The reason i chose these film posters to refer to is because of the way they are laid out and the genres of films all the films are either a thriller or have a thriller feel to them i chose this genre for the poster i am going to make because in my opinion horror and thriller's are the best genres to watch. Each of the posters shows an element to the film they are advertising i am using these posters to give me a guideline to what my poster should be like.
