I'm as busy as a bee... poster design!

So this is a poster design I started working on, its based on the Olive Tree Markets competition that finished the 6th of November. I missed out on the competition but I still wanted to give the brief a shot.It also means I will have something else I can add to my portfolio.

Tell me what you think in the comments. Give me your honest opinion.

Another design challenge done...

Ok, so I finished another design challenge from Reddit. The subject of the brief was a bit odd but I did it all the same. I think it came out good but I'm not quite sure about the colours I used. If anyone has an opinion on that please share?

The brief was for me to design a door hanger advertisement for the mock up "Poopy Diaper Delivery" company. I did the best I could from what was given to me in the details (see link above). So here it is:

Current Design Project!

So my current design project that I am working on is putting together a small but impressive portfolio of works. I have decided to take some design challenges I found on Reddit and do them, so that I can then put the finished designs in my portfolio to show my current skills.

(http://www.reddit.com/r/design_challenges/comments/qiyyw/design_challenge_1_logo_zork_delivery)
The first challenge is shown in the link above and is asking for people to design a logo for an Interstellar Delivery service called "Zork".  Now none of these types of projects are new to me because I have had there very types of projects given to me to do as assessments. This is why I think these challenges would make for good exercises to put together to demonstrate that I still have the skills and talents to be a graphic designer.

The following images shows my two designs that I came up with for the challenges, if you have any opinions, like which you prefer please leave a comment:

These designs are copyrighted to SakuraBellStudios. The concept of Zork was brought to us by the person who posted the design challenges on Reddit.

Posterific!

This month i finished 2 assignments that to me were really fun to do; one of them was a pretty flexible project that i could do almost anything for i just had to follow the brief and theme, and the other was a little more restricted to the brief and the object of the brief (this one took me quite a while to finish and sometime became a royal pain in my !@#$).

This is my entry and assignment for the Adelaide Fringe Arts Festival 

Billboard Poster for an assignment, is supposed to advertise the Wurlitzer jukebox.

Holidays! and i wasted the first day of it....

Ok, so tonight i'm a bit happy and a bit pissed. The reason i'm happy is that i am on a 3 week holiday from more assignments, and am almost up to date with everything just a cityscape drawing and some billboard research to finish off by monday morning. But the reason i am pissed is because today i wasted the whole day away sleeping instead of doing something productive like my assignments or my own drawings and projects for a change.

Oh well i'm going to try and work on some of my billboard research tonight to make up for some of the time i lost. So wish me luck!

Old DuelJewel Mock Album

New DualJewel Mock album cover and poster

Above is the recent assignment i finished for last term of my tafe course. very proud of my work! i had to make an assemblage out of recycled stuff and then photograph the assemblage and put the photographs together into a poster and cd cover  of my fav band. i chose, as you can see, Duel Jewel.

Any way thought i just might write in tonight and express my feelings to you all! Hope next entry will be a bit more positive. ^_^

Laters

April Holidays at last!!!

"Egg Boys" Please don't say it looks like kirby because my friend, Keish, already said that. XD

Hey followers!

Sorry i haven't posted anything in a while i've been sooo busy with TAFE work that i have harrdly had anytime time to write or do any pictures for this blog. So here i am typing my first post of April 2011, with a new picture for you all to see. I call them the "Egg Boys", i think they are soooo cute! i did them in the middle of computer class using the mesh tool. And before you go asking "why was doing this in my computer class?" We were actually being taught about the mesh tool the whole lesson, so i decided to put what we were learning into practice via my own little exercise. Tell me what do you think? are they awesome or what? ^_^

So anyway as the title suggests, it is the April holidays and i am sooo happy because that will allow me some time to myself and my own drawings. 

Things i plan on doing this holidays:

1. Draw at least 10 major drawings for my blog or deviantART
2. Read at least 5 books
3. Buy at least one game: The sims Medieval, Pokemon Black/White, Tron: Legacy, Final fantasy Crisis Core.
4. Finish or move further in at least 2 games: Final fantasy X, Final Fantasy Dirge of Cerebus, Kingdom Hearts BBS
