Birds

This image represents what I’ve learned so far in 9 hours (3 hours per week) of class at MCAD. For tomorrow night’s class we are working on holiday or seasonal patterns – I’m attempting to channel Spring through these birds!

I just wanted to share because I wasn’t sure the pattern was going to work… until I tiled it! And I like it! I’m hoping to incorporate it into the next calendar of events for the museum… We’ll see!

These images were photographed from magazines to help inspire various grid systems for future projects.

Since the persuasive poster had a minimum size of 12″x19″, I thought: let’s go all out! I made mine 3′x4′. Well, I went to print it today, and… it’s kind of embarrassingly huge. I bet I have the biggest poster in class tomorrow.

My poster is really lacking… something. I hope I can figure it out in critique tomorrow.

Here are some of my sketches for upcoming assignments.

For my persuasive poster I’ve decided to take a pro-yoga stance (in response to “Knees and Backs”). I’d like to use a photograph instead of illustrating the yoga poses, so I need to find a model. I also need to determine size and consider the proportions of my image(s) and text on my page. I have lots of things to think about!

Today I also got a good start on my website design, but I’m not sure it’s working exactly the way I envisioned. I’m not sure what sort of screen resolution to use (are people still viewing websites with 800×600 proportions? because I’m certainly not), so I wonder if my design is too small for most computer screens. It will help to actually get some content on the page, too, I suppose. It’s being built specifically for my class, so I need to highlight those assignments… and seeing as how it’s only the third week of class, we don’t have a lot of finished work yet.

Anyway, you can find my website-in-progress here, at http://amy-berg.com.
