Environmental and Posters

I'm having such a hard time with the Environmental Campaign. I've been trying to think of new ideas other than billboards and stuff, but nothing new is coming to mind. /sigh
I'm also thinking of using pottery, but I still need to find usable images. This lobby picture is really low quality that I may have to do it on another.
/cries


At least I have the main part of my posters done. I tried to put the splats in the background of the images but it looked way too busy with the flowers. I'm thinking of making them longer and putting a die cut at the bottom of the poster that look like the festival flags from the logo.

Poster Comps

Set ONE









































Don't worry... these are not the finals lol
I will be creating my own swirls and splats in the background. I am still working on the images to seem a little bit more sketched out.



Set TWO






















These have different splats, as well as different walls. I tried to play around with the splats breaking out of the frame.



Set THREE






















Instead of splats, I tried to do something floral. I actually think this is cute.

Poster Ideas

This is my first idea I was thinking of making it seem like it was painted/sprayed on to a brick wall. I wanted to show the people in relation to the local events and festivities. The splash in each frame is to illustrate the energy of the moment.









I wanted to show a picture of each individual city, highlighting the architecture. Each sketch has a playful border with festival flags in order to portray an enjoyable experience.










I like the illustrations of the first sketch, so I wanted to use it again with the incorporation of a new background pattern.

In Progress-Comps 2




After working on my Sun Comps, I was not satisfied. I decided to come up with new ideas. While Joe was showing us past student work, I realized I was drawn more to the simple ones that only changed colors. I wanted to try to do something like that. This was my first atempt, which I don't think is too successful. /barf









I am so in love with this one. I can probably play around with the type a bit more, but overall these were the colors I wanted to do. It creates a festive atmosphere/mood. YAY! What do you think?
^_^

It reminds me of a piƱata. YAY!

Zacatecas Logo Sketches

ONE

In this set I wanted to incorporate Mexican architecture and landscapes.


TWO

On these I wanted to focus on the people and culture.


THREE

The shape of the state is a window to the landscape and architecture.


FRAMES


These are some of the frames I used and may still use.
I am still not done with the sketches.
The one I really want to sketch is the fancy octagon.
I found it in an architectural piece as the window.
I thought it was cute.
