For this assignment we were required to read a series of three blog posts that described what it takes to be a master designer. According to these blogs, a master designer knows how to properly limit their fonts, and colors as well as provide a good contrast in their artwork. After reading the blogs, we were required to look for a poser, ad, or web page that exemplifies the principles that we learned. Here is my result:
This picture is from a website that does creative digital remakes of movie covers. Obviously, this poster is a remake of the title page of the popular movie Halloween. I feel like this poster does a really good job at showing all of the different principals that are outlined in the "Becoming a Master Designer" blog posts. The font is limited as there is only one type of font on the entire picture. However, the fact that the font is really simple and plain, plays into the picture being so serious. The artist also limited their colors by making the picture only three colors that all seem to work really well together. Since the picture is really simple, outside of the details in the face, it has really good contrast in the different layers of the picture in regards to the background, the silhouette of the person and the face. Overall, the artist was able to create and interesting image that follows the guidelines outlined in the blogs very nicely.
Until next time,
Tyler
