Graphic Design at UCK

Here’s another example of one of the older briefs. Those of you on this module now probably have the new briefs so these might not be of too much use as far as being able to see what has been submitted in the past, but they are still interesting! This one is Laura’s. After each section, she had a page where she explained the method she used but there are too many to post so I’m sure if you leave her a comment, Laura will tell you what she did!

In section 1, Laura had to produce three vector objects based on her own sketches and then a concert poster using a bitmap image in FreeHand/Illustrator to produce a photo real image.

The objects:

(This has some fun stars in the background that didn’t show up in the scan…)

In part 2, Laura had to manipulate, enhance and montage three scanned images using Photoshop than produce an advert about digital communication combining the use of Illustrator and Photoshop.

The manipulated images (middle step on each not posted):

(Again, these images scanned quite dark, but you get the idea)

And the digital communication advert:

In part 3, Laura had to design some typography for a commercial brief. The project was an album cover with emphasis on type as an element of design. After that, she had to design a custom typeface for an image consultancy based on her own sketches and the blending of two traditional typefaces.

The album cover:

And the image consultancy:
