Week 2/12- 2/16

February 14, 2024 By Adriana Hermoza

UTCF Banner 10.2 Montreal

Start: February 12, 2024

To be Completed by: February 29, 2024

Staff Guidance: Leilani, De’sha, & Yazz

Client: UTFC

Description: I was tasked to create a graphic asset for the UTCF project, a banner, using the approved images for this assignment. I had to follow the instructions for the cut-out and pasted them in the illustration file.

First, I had to download the images needed for the banners and cut-out the main subject and later arrange them in the illustration file containing the banners.

   

After receving feedback, I tried out new layouts and refined the banners.

Leading to the latest iterations:

 

The next iterations I created centered around the feedback I received which consisted on:

  • Lighten the shadows to avoid making the images look flat
  • Get more of the clock’s face & details
  • Define the outline if  necessary

 

UTCF Banner 10.4 Montreal

Start: February 12, 2024

To be Completed by: February 29, 2024

Staff Guidance: Leilani, De’sha, & Yazz

Client: UTFC

Description: I was tasked to create a graphic asset for the UTCF project, a banner, using the approved images for this assignment. I had to follow the instructions for the cut-out and pasted them in the illustration file.

I followed the same steps as the previous cutout and created the first iteration.

I received feedback that consisted on:

  • Adding thin lines to fill the image tracing outline where is not visible
  • Remove the bush attached to the middle building and push the building down
  • Switch the order so that the triangle building is in the middle

 

Following the last iterations I created the entire set, but the images for the banners updated and I created a new set of banners with the new images. I also tried out two different layouts.

For the final iterations, we decided to go with the first layout while fixing a couple of things:

  • Moving the middle building down so the trees aren’t as prevalent
  • Enlarging the buildings slightly
