Completing this project was both frustrating and rewarding at the same time. At first, I was struggling with how i wanted my animation, and how to achieve it. I was overcomplicating it. Once i took a step back and simplified it, I was bale to see success and progress. After every frame that properly animated I would celebrate and smile. Seeing the end result was so rewarding to know all my hard work had paid off.
I chose the personal article for this assignment because I felt more connected to it when reading it. I loved how I was immediately able to visualize a cover page concept. I went with this design because our emotions are complex just like technology is. We have a love hate relationship with our machines and they are the heart of our world.
My Influence was Cipe Pineless who was a graphic designer for magazines such as Seventeen, Glamour, Vanity and many more. I love her work and how she creates a cover that is both enticing but realistic. I took her cover that was a reflection of a beach picture and used that to create this poster. I loved the simplicity of it while also being able to have the picture speak for you.
For my logo I really wanted to focus bright colors. Being creative is supposed to be a happy and fun experience. I wanted to portray that. I created my own typeface because I was not satisfied with any typeface. Your creative juices flow when you are in a groove which is what you want for a publication company. For our writers to just write and write and write.
