Orfil_black_swan_business_cards_2013





For this assignment I made three business cards. The first card I made was the blue one which is my professional business card. I started by making my canvas size 300x200 pixels. The next thing I did was make my canvas color blue and I also copied and pasted some solid black swans onto the card. The last thing I did was type in all the information on the card by using the text tool. On my mid level card I made my card 200 pixels wide and 300 pixels high. I gave my canvas a dark gray color and then I copied and pasted three swans onto my canvas, gave them a blue color and then gave them a ripples texture. Then I used the text tool to type in all the information. The final business card that I made was the unprofessional one. To do this card I made my canvas 300 pixels wide and 200 pixels high. I gave my canvas a green color and then I copied and pasted 5 swans and gave each one a different color. Then I used the text tool to type in all the information in red and in a different font style than the other cards and then I made the text red. Finally I used the pencil tool to mark all over the card with purple lines.

Orfil_animal_pointillisim_2013

This is my pointillism animal as you can see it is a penguin. I started off by opening up an image of a penguin in adobe fireworks CS3. The rest was fairly easy I just used the paintbrush tool, used the size 10, and made lots of dots on the penguin and the background and to get the colors I just clicked the down arrow on the color box and then clicked on the image. For example when I did the penguins head I clicked on the down arrow and then clicked on the penguins head to get the exact color, which is why you can see many different shades of gray and black and white. If you look closely you will see that some dots are bigger than others. Most of the dots on the background are a size 10. Some are size 8. On the penguins head most of the dots are size 5 and some are size 3 and on the body all of the dots are size 10. I also made my canvas color a dark gray so that the penguin would stand out a little more.

Orfil_Pointalisim_Colorwheal

This here is my pointalisim colorwheal. I started off by opening the pointalisim colorwheal in adobe fireworks and then I selected the brush tool and brought the tip size to 30 and selected all the colors from the colorwheal itself. I selected with the paintbrush each individual color by clicking on as much of each color as I could. I placed each individual color in a layer. I did the exact same thing for the other colorwheals only this time I made the tip size 20, 10, and 5. What I did notice is that as the tip size would get smaller and smaller, the colorwheals would look even more realistic, however it took a longer amount of time to do it.
