Portfolio Graphics Work

For my portfolio I created a series of pieces of work to show at my uni interviews.

I looked at how people grow up with age, but though the toys and objects of each stage. Then looking at how those toys and objects change for the male gender:


I picked out the colours from the robot and used them to add colour to my piece of work:


Here I found a piece of text I liked out of the bible, and decided to make a typography poster out of it, using a male figure as 'God':


This poster was an idea I had when looking through my younger sisters B-Line magazine she gets from school, which contains what to do after leaving school and other school infomation, so I decided to create a poster/ magazine advert or even front cover aimed at that spercific age. I did this by using colourful edits and making the poster look modern and almost 'cool' in their eyes:


Here I used a scanner, and scanned broken glass with my face behind it to create a horror themed DVD cover inspired by the cover to the film 'Human Centipede':


Here I wanted to mix the unfluence of pop music and culture with graphics, by creating a posters and two different album designs. I used bright colours as pop music seems to be heading a very strage direction with the influence of Lady GaGa and tried to me the singer look 'cool' and modern:

BBC Screens Motion Graphics

The BBC asked me and my class to all create a short piece of motion graphics on the theme of street, with our own ideas. I researched into dirrferent types of motion graphics including Stop Motion, Traditional Animation, and some previous adverts that use Motion Graphics. 

This was my final piece:


The idea was that it's my opinion on what the streets of modern day society are like, and they are coming out of the head that thought them up.

Photography

I took some images of buildings in my nearest town, and flipped/ reflected them over to create objects. These are my final pieces.
