Kerning

Kerning is basically about evenly spacing letters in a word. Kerning is a pert of typography that every graphic designer needs to know, kerning is adjusting the space between characters on a proportional font. The picture above shows my score that i got on a  kerning game (http://type.method.ac/)  that i played. it starts you out with a word that is not evenly spaced.

and then you grab the middle letters and move them to the best you can to evenly space everything. so on the picture below its the exact same word above without any movement between the letters. so the blue is where i should of moved the letters.

and so with the picture at the very top is what i got.

e-magine

e-magine was great this year, there were so many good art pieces and i was just astounded. Colton Gibbs helped so much to give an extra umph to all of the still pictures.

Colton really added a lot to e-magine and he is a great guitarist.  and through out the entire e-magine show. My Kawasaki Ninja that i entered into e-magine got second place but was hoping get first.

this motorcycle took about three weeks to make and really got me started into vectoring. Colton Gibbs the guy who played guitar, also taught me everything i know about vectoring and almost everything i know about Graphic Design. the basic vector took two and a half weeks straight with two hours everyday. means that i spent 26 hours on this bike to create the outline. 

then i spent another 8 hours to color and shade everything to the bike it is now. 

Movie Poster

       Movie posters are very tricky and hard to make. to make a really good poster that will leave people amazed you have to make an understory behind it all, so not only do you have to make it very appealing from just quickly looking at the poster you need to make an even more attracting story/image come from negative space. Saul Bass is probably the best person in the world to make movie posters from vectors.

this is a Bonnie and Clyde poster made by Saul Bass, it only uses 3 colors but yet tells so much. it shows the car and the bullets which are the obvious images we can see but he also shows the money sign with the streaks the car made and the bullets ( $ ). he shows so much of the entire story of Bonnie and Clyde through so little. now i'm trying to do what he did with my poster called 

i only used 2-3 colors just a lot of shading, but as you can see, the deer is in its forest/woods, but i also made a mil-dot scope of what hunters look through when aiming their rifle. it shows the hunters main goal through the hunters perspective. and its all about perspective when trying to make a good poster. now my poster is no where near close to as good as Saul's but i"m trying to get the same concept.
