Complete Most Dope CO. project

I completed the Most Dope CO. project today. It was pretty easy and it only took me two days to complete. I came up with the idea while looking through fonts, I saw one that caught my eyes. So I came up with a design using the font and the thumbs up. Heres the finished project i think it looks pretty good...

I forgot to blog yesterday but I came up with an idea to work with. My idea is to make a I Love Life Thank You design for the song by Mac Miller. I am going to make a image for it or else just a different design or the already existing one. I might try to use the same font or mix it up, not sure yet.

Today I continued the In The Air project, it's coming out better than I taught. Well today I added a different hand to represent Mac Miller and I also outlined a microphone. Then I joined them together and made them both black, and added an artistic stroke. I should be done with it by tomorrow. Just need to add anything thats missing or just to make it look better.

Today I started the In The Air project all I did was put the thumbs up logo and made copies. The whole design is to look as if it's in a concert and a lot of people have their thumbs up. It was inspired by the song "In The Air" by Mac Miller like most of my projects. haha

Proposal

Project: In The Air

Time Estimate: 2-3 days

Resources Needed: The thumbs up logo I created and my imagination.

Grading: Is it clean? Does it look professional?

Today I finally came up with an idea, and I should start working on it soon. But for right no I got something else im working on. I am going to introduce it to Mr.P tomorrow so I could get some help and advice.So pretty much today all I was doing was browsing around stock photography for the new thing Im going to start in a few days. I came up with this idea while hearing In the Air by Mac Miller on the school bus. Hopefully it comes up the way I see it ill probably draw a sketch or just an ouline. Ill see...
Oh and I also saw the new template fo a T shirt but its a bit difficult to use so ill check out the tutorial.

Today I kept on looking for something to do on google. I'm still looking for some inspiration on something to do. I mostly browsed around looking at Mac Miller album covers and clothing I also looked at some of his quotes and started to get the smile back project and just type something else instead but I didn't really like it. I'll keep on looking... I should start something tomorrow.

Today I searched around on Delicious trying to find something I could do o get inspired by. I wanted to do a L.A. Noire text effect but the background website was blocked. So I just kept looking around ... I'll probably draw something or come up with an idea in the weekend.

Yesterday and today I started on a watercolor text tutorial, it was really easy and it only took me 2 days.
I was expecting the tutorial to actually look like the image they used but they only showed you how to make the text not the background it was somewhat dissapointing. So I had to add on to the design all I did was take the same brush they made me use and draw with it. Heres the website

Completed Best Day Ever project

This project was really similar to the Thumbs Up project because i used the same thumbs up to make the design.I filled the thumbs up with a gradient I made and blurred the object.After I did the same with the text by forming the font into a path. The problem I had was finding a background for the logo so I finally took a background that I used last year and placed it behind.I also set the layer style to multiply to darken the colors.Heres the final draft I pictured it in my head a little better but its still good. I also didnt align it because I got over it.

Yesterday I worked on the Best day Ever project, I believe I will be done with it on Monday. Well I made a gradient and put it into everything and blurred it out, usin a Gaussian blur. Mr.P helped me by showing me how to turn font into a path. Which helped me alot.

Proposal

Project Name: Thumbs Up Best Day Ever

Time Estimate: 2-3 Days

Resources Needed: just the image I used for the Thumbs Up project

Grading: Is it clean? Does it look like the real Best Day Ever Logo? Did I do a good job?

Today I was figuring out what to do since I finished my previous project. I was making a new logo for Most Dope but i didnt really like it, all i did was get another thumbs up and put some text under it. I then put some lines on the text so it would better, but it didnt work out so i deletd the file. By tommorow I should have something to do. Ill probably draw a sketch at home and design something better from it...

Completed Thumbs Up project


After almost two weeks of working on the Thumbs Up project i have finally finished. At first it was difficult to begin because i had a problem with the tracing of the hand, but after that it was really simple. All i did was find a font that suited the design and finding the right colors. I was going for a vintage look but it didnt come out exactly like i tought it would. But I am still rally happy with the outcome of it. Heres the logo.

Today I continued work in the Thumbs Up project. I believe it is coming out well, I made a few changes to the design, one is making the words circle around the thumbs up. I also have decided to not fill in the thumbs up, but instead to put the colors into the font and the circle around the thumb ups. I'm still not sure as to put the design on a shirt or just leave it as it is. I will decide on that later... I believe the project will be completed by the end of this week.
