InClass: Assignment 4 & Project 4


Today's assignment encouraged us to become someone dramatically different from ourselves. We were able to detach from our reality and live in a fantasy. Whether good or bad, the concept was to envision and embrace a Pseudonym. Mine is Harrison a Computer Networking Guru, that's wealthy and  engaged in all sorts of social media. He's made a lot of money creating Apps and Operating systems in which our smart phones and tablets use. He also became the world famous Alchemist, finally turning an organic item into Gold.


The Pseudonym led into Project 4 and building up our character to be featured on a CRYK Polish Style Poster. It was also required to add an emotional word that attaches to the characters personality. I chose arrogant for my character. He's actually a successful alchemist and a billion-dollar-geek, that's Lex Luther potential arrogance. My main medium was Adobe Illustrator, largely using the pen tool to create Harrison and type tool and direct selection tool for the rest. Used texture to subtract tiny areas away to create a vintage look.
