Propaganda Poster

 Propaganda Poster:

Artist Statement:

For my piece, I wanted to make a campaign against politics in movies, especially when it is not the focus of the film.  It’s always bothered me when recognizable studios incorporate their political ideologies, or whatever’s popular, into their movie to essentially get “brownie points.”  I wanted to make my poster stand out so I included the famous red, white, and blue that is usually associated with American War Propaganda posters.  Overall I think my message is clear and comes across in a respectful and mature manner.

    I love how you put your message through this artwork. The design looks really cool. I like the location where you put the word "film." It makes it look more creative.

I really tried to get the lighting to match up and I wanted to convey a tired and exhausted look with my pose.  I feel that I was able to get that, but could’ve maybe taken a few more sample pictures.  Overall I am pleased with how it turned out.  I played with the lighting for a while and I feel that that is the best I could get.

Business Cards

  Artist Statement: I didn’t want to go extremely detailed with my business card designs, but I knew there was a limit to how simple I could make them.  I decided to try and stick to a blue color palette for my business cards as I didn’t want to try and commit too hard to both colors that I featured in my logos, blue and green.  I feel like the constant clashing of colors would’ve hurt the designs more than helped them.  I needed to commit to one and I chose blue because of how much better I imagined it would look, although I did make green the main focus of the second business card.  The green, in my opinion, would’ve looked silly.  I like all the designs with my favorite either being one of the first two designs.  I don’t think I would ever actually produce a business card that looks similar to card design #3.  If I absolutely had to pick a card design, I would probably choose the first one.

I like seeing funny gifs online, especially gifs that have a funny twist to them.  I believe I have created a perfect example of this.  I didn’t want to make a gif that was based on another image.  I wanted to make my own meme.  Funny gifs are one of the most iconic parts of the internet and the randomness of this gif is something I really wanted to emphasize.  The colors are weird, the character is weird, and the whole piece is weird.  For those reasons, I like what I have created.
