WEEK 9 The basic elements

My area of interest of design is in illustrations, which include book illustration, magazine spreads, posters and much more. It is a broader range of area because it includes so much, basically, any type of visuals can be categorized in illustration. To condense it down, I’m more interested in vector based graphics, that is simple and meaningful. I can be drawn traditionally on paper, later prototyped in CS suites.

These images are favorites I collected are from different famous illustrator out there.



Blog Exercise - The Basic Elements




1. Color, Shape, Scale. The first image i pick out is the elephant character, the image is consists of bold, clean shapes with the main object in the middle, in 3 distinctive light and soft colors. The color is settle, by using the scale of the small ice, it represented the bigger size of the elephant.
2. Lines, Direction, Movement: This is a vector animation captured from a famous advertising campaign made by Nike. In this image the shape of the hands are long and abstract, surrounding around the little girl which made her the focal point of the image. The direction of the image moves along with the direction where the hand moves.
3. Depth, Tone, Shape and Color Group. In this image, clear features of shape and color pops out immediately. The 3 different drawings have 3 different color tone, pin/red, green and multicolor, the tone is the intensity of the darkness or lightness of the object, which this image is very strong at . With different color tones and abstract shapes, these drawings developed a great depth into the shape, which gives multiple dimension and multiple perspective.
