Star Wars Re-imagined: Attack on the planet Muir.

Imagine a parallel Star Wars universe with a different hi-tech look that the storm troopers can generate power (laser beams, dark matter, etc.) from within their selves and use it as weapons. And maybe also with a sense of fashion?

A piece I created to tribute for the upcoming Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie and the upcoming Star Wars Battlefront game. Can't wait! This piece was really fun to create.

May the Force be with you :)

"Chic" Magazine Cover

"Chic" Magazine Cover

Project Description:
This project was to create an magazine cover for a fake company called “Chic.”  The project was to use primarily typography and understand layout  and placement design.

I decided that I wanted to do a digital painting of a futuristic robot/cyborg.  Because this is a magazine cover, I added a cloudy atmosphere background so I can add text, designs, etc.  After I imported my image to Illustrator, I then added the text.

Mazda Annual report

Mazda Annual report

Project Description:This project was to create an annual report for a company.  But there was a spin.  We had to work with a partner.  The purpose was to give the students a dose of the real-world working relationship.  With this partner, one must become the Art Director and the other a  production designer (vice-versa).  So it was a total of 2 different company. First as an Art Director, we must choose a company and make sketches of the layout and design the logo for it.  It is then given to my partner who will be the production designer to design it. 

Media:Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign.

Quote Poster Design

Quote Poster Design

Project Description:
This project was to find a quote of our choice and use it in a way that will have two different meanings to it.  We would have to incorporate typography and imagery to visualize the intended purpose.  I chose the J. Robert Oppenheimer’s famous quote “I become of death, the destroyer of worlds.”

I wanted to make these two different images to send a powerful meaning yet a unique message to the viewers, so that by visually seeing it, they would understand it at a glance.  I used red color for “Death” because that is the key word of the quote, so using a red color will make the word as the main point.

James Blunt’s “Your Beautiful” Expressive Typography design

James Blunt’s “Your Beautiful” Expressive Typography design

Project Description:This project was to use the lyric from a song and express its meaning using typography.  We had to design a fold(s) with it as well. 

I knew that the song was emotional that expresses love, beauty, sadness, and a bit of humor.  I had to be careful choosing what type of font I would put into my piece.  I wanted to use serif that would work on words that would have more of a bold statement.  I used curvier fonts for the high and low notes.  And using San serif for the more of the humor, etc.

Library Poster Design

Library Poster Design
Project Description:
This project was to create a library poster for the Marshall-Lyon County Library.  The task was simple.  We could use any media and or medium of our choice.  I decided to do a digital painting using a tablet to do a painting.  In this case, I used Photoshop to paint the entire artwork.  For the type, I then imported into InDesign to insert the type.

I wanted a child  in the center as the mainpoint and is up after bedtime reading his book.  Because Children are excellent imaginators, I had to include monsters in the background.  I thought it would be a great way to show a child’s imagination.
