Imagery



Mostly, some of the instructional imagery will be important to this book. some moves have complicated foot work that may take some more explanation. Then there are moves that need a simple illustration to make sense as well. these images will be small, and very few. No need to complicate things.



















I don't think there would be any specific ratios for the placement of the logo. It will be left up to the designer of the ad, brochure, banner, etc. Advertisements for an institution of this nature would be at the mercy of whatever subject material is brought their way. Take this ad for instance, it was a standard ad that was given to all locations by the Moscow Ballet. Then the host venue would put their logo at the bottom.

Interestingly enough, the Moscow Ballet performed this here on Dec 2nd.

Day 23


I placed most of the information for the containing shapes on the actual image that I created.

So none of the exercises were really speaking to me but this one which refers to sound. I tried to think and make a couple different signature sounds that would accompany the appearance of the logo but i couldn't do it. it seemed too cheesy for what i am trying to accomplish so instead i imagined commercials that suite might have and what they would feel like. i went through a lot of music and these two seemed to say what i wanted to most. my emphasis in the company is that it carries contemporary lines so i chose music that would appeal to those that are part of the contemporary scene. they both could apply to having an awesome home. As i chose the music i was leaning toward electronica and type of music. Most of that type would work okay as long as it didn't resemble in any way shape or form that hamster dance song...bleh...

Cable Table reDesign.022


The illustrations for the cable table were based on the illustrations I do day in and day out for SkyWest Airlines. I think it works well in other applications, so I occasionally bring it in to my school work as well.

Shapes

The tittle for the i is created by a series of warped circles.
This tittle is part of every logo and is the inspiration for any other designs for the brand.

Imagery Specifications



In today's post I specify how to use the two types of imagery associated with Altable; professional imagery and user imagery.

kit: imagery

Day: Imagery


Here are the design rules for using the logo with a image.

Freudentisch Fünf



(There's nothing like a wake-up call that your flash skills are getting rusty.) This is a short animation to show how the logo would look (for example) at the end of a commercial, or as part of a flash banner for a website.

Glo Container Shapes

So I kinda explained this earlier in the first post when dealing with the logos but working with container shapes fits almost exactly with the idea of my logo. With Jay an idea for Glo came up. It was based on the prestige or "street cred" that comes with graffiti or "tagging." But if this recognition could still come with an almost less rebellious or destructive sort of risk. The name of intellectual tagging was born. Intellectual tagging in theory is like making "your mark" but not by painting or destroying others' property. For example you could use a projector to shoot your tag onto your tagged area and then take a picture. This leads into the reason for the large variety of container shapes. It forces the company and divisions therein to have some structure by only being able to use the "swirl g" but still letting them have the freedom with the container shape, which mimics the freedom that many urban underground athletes and arts desire.

This goes with yesterdays post

fullgive (day 22)


Here are album covers from some of the artists that my brother and I often listen to while we are working in the Fullgive studio (my brother's bedroom). I have found that the music that I listen to while I am working often shows its face in the final product, so these albums have had a direct affect on what Fullgive is today. It makes sense that the music that helps to drive the design of Fullgive also be a part of the atmosphere where it is being sold.

imagery


the only imagery that glo uses is the bottle for the energy drink and the heart beat line that you see in the logo. i put an example of how it works with the logo, on the bottle, and how it can be used in advertisements. the size ratio shown in the examples are how the imagery will always appear in relation to the logo the bottle is the only type of packaging this drink uses. if additional images are needed in the future, they may be added and an image library would be necessary. the colors of the line may change when off of the bottle, but it will always be gray when it appears on the bottle.

Return of the Cello

Today I wanted to do something different.
Ebiti dellaudi recte etus adipsap ernatem eaquam consequas as debist laccabo rehenis essum, omnieni molorest, quas aut et de estis sa esti qui optia comnis dolestem net ma dic te verum erecatquo essi bla incillit volorep erchil is as quide plame quias eictem quia suscien ihilliquia volest doluptam comnietur.
....Is anyone reading this? I didn't think so. But anyway I wanted to get away from the stuff I've done this past week. (YAWN) I was thinking if I had to include imagery it would most likely have something to do with cellos. I'm slightly obsessed with them if you haven't guessed by now.
I've already done the Mr. Bow and Celli so I was thinking that music can be fun, inspiring, energizing, haunting, and beautiful while at the same time melancholy.

oops


naturally simple. Because thats what it is. The tag line is set in myriad pro regular.
