Color – Design Element -Sophie
(Click the link two times!)
What is the role of elements & principles in graphic design?
In other words, say it, the role of elements and principles is how you put the elements together to create a visual representation to convey your message. ( As for an example: My design element is color so I created a representation of color to show the difference to my viewers and to convey the message inside it.
What is this design task all about?
In this unit, we each had an element that we would create based on it. Different elements could illustrate differently and could have different results. Like for people that used shapes, they might have used different and interesting shapes to fascinate or to make it appealing. The designs might also have different meanings that have connections to the creators themselves.
Why did you design your illustration this way?
I did my design adding different shapes and different color scenes to show how my feelings are for this year. I also used some ideas I doodled in the class:
The ones that I’ve circled are the ones that inspired me and the ones I put in my design. Like the Movement&Direction one, I used white/grayish color and added it at the top of my design. Same for the balance one, but I chose to make it into different shapes this time.
And finally, the colors I chose to be in this design, is because I feel happy about a school not feeling stressed totally. The design might have some of my own feelings and different meanings.
My design progress:
- Choose the colors
- Background making
- Adding the shapes ( Inspiration form Movement&Direction)
- Finishing off the shapes with putting different faces on them to show the different feelings of myself this schoolyear.
