These are my blog comments for art.
Graphic novel.
Did you use photos or drawings or both to create your graphic novel?I tried to use both photos and drawings in my graphic novel. But I ended up using mostly photos. How did you incorporate the psychology of font into your text?I tried to be consistant with the font. I know that in the past I have used too many fonts in projects and, this time i wanted to stay simple and avoid confusion. How did you consider communication of a clear storyline using anchor images and layout styles for each of the pages? I did consider the communication of a clear story line, unfortunately, in 5 pages, I was unable to show an entire story, it's unfortunate there isn't a class for just this project on it's own. That'd be sweet. Then we could write a real long graphic novel! anyway. I tried my best to establish the begining of my story which has to eventually end in 'to be continued' and I say eventually because I was unfortunately unable to complete the project. But I would really like to complete it in the future for my own amusement.How did you incorporate original ideas and creativity into your piece? I encorporated my originale ideas of drawings inthe title, first, second, and fourth page. I wasn't able to do my original idea of hand sketching all the backgrounds, however I was able to manipulate the photographs to make them look more like my drawing style. Describe what the most important elements and principles of design were in your work and how you used the power of the program.I used the power of the program to suck the colour out of the photographs and i used the 'posterise' filter to make some photographs appear less lifelike.
Installation art
What idea did you present? I presented my locker with verious relevent objects in it.
How did you communicate your idea in a site specific way? I created my idea in a specific way by taking examples of my life to demonstrate the life of an average teenager my age. I also stated my theory on the door.
What materials did you use? I used a variety of materials including school work, artwork, a magazine, a microphone, my starbucks mugs, the josh box, and many maganets I have made myself.
Did the audience understand what you were communicating? I think generally the audience was very keen on what I was trying to comunicate. They even caught some of the themes within the theme.
How would you improve your installation if given the opportunity? No I wouldn't improve on this project given the opportunity. I think it turned out awsome. I wouldn't have it any other way.
