Final Project - Main Character Development



A boy, by the name of Nat, is the main character of the story. I am in the process of experimenting with colors, style and features to portray Nat.

Above: I have drawn the outlines of the boy in the first try. And injected shading to give a sense of 3D in the 2nd.

Assignment 5 - Infographic Research

I was really fascinated by this infographic while doing my research. Even though there is abundant (even excessive) information clumped into one, I like how the reader is able to "read" the danger and graveness of the information presented through the "skull"

I like this simplistic yet pretty design. I enjoy the comfortable composition and the good use of contrasting colors - black and red. More importantly, it brings across the impact and grave danger of the issue at hand very effectively through its simply presentation and strong words.

Pictogram Research



Pictures from: http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-20475776/stock-vector-color-set.html

Was doing my research for my pictogram assignment when I came across this. Isn't it interesting how the same set of pictogram can be designed to bring different effects, themes and mood through the change of its colors, form and lines?

My decision to make my pictogram series set against green background was partly inspired by this :))

While i was searching for more ideas and inspiration for "Me, Myself and I". I came across these interesting designs online.

I like particularly the last one, which hides the message " A Shut Book is Just a Block" by the clever use of colors.
Employed some of these ideas in my brainstorming thumbnails as well :))
