A collection of unrelated things

For this next project we have been asked to become visual magpies and to hunt and scour the streets, charity shops, book shops and memorabilia shops to find pictures and photographs to create our own collages and photo montages, and that they don't really have to relate to anything just as long as they look good there wasn't really much rules which i found rather enjoyable.

CREATING MY OWN POSTER

Using the new typeface Are you having a graph, and word templates i used the cut and paste technique and created these interesting posters, I also played around with colour copier to give different outcomes.

ARE YO HAVING A GRAPH

Using this standard typeface as a template I was asked to create my own typeface. so I experimented with different techniques I then found a technique I liked by using asotate and graph paper I created different typefaces.

 This is the final outcome Are you having a graph is the typefaces name, I used asotate and graph paper, and also used the colour copier to invert the colours I then scanned the image  into the computer and then tweaked the colours in Photoshop giving this outcome (below).

BOOK COVER 

After starting to think about composition, and using the book cover asotate as a template i created this image, I then colour inverted it on the colour copier and created a second cover, which I personally think looks a lot better.

COMPOSITION IS KEY

Using old magazines and news papers i used the cut and paste technique and started to think more about  composition, so i created these little squares and made the composition the most important factor. 

PLAYING WITH LETTERS

Using letrosect and letter stencils i created these great little compositions and then played around using the colour copier.

SQUARED

Using these grid frames a very traditional method we drew some very precise to scale drawings

 We then experimented and instead of splitting the page up equally and drawing a precise drawing, we drew the the grid with less equal squares and then drew the same image and created this much more distorted and surreal drawing.
