Intro to Digital - Illustrator Research & Idea's
I started this Illustrator project with very little previous experience at using the programme so the first thing I had to do was research how vector art is created and the different ways it is used, I then started trying different ideas and methods.
Intro to Digital - InDesign Research
I looked at how InDesign is used in the industry for magazines, posters, leaflets etc, to try and generate some ideas of the the sort of work I will be looking to produce.
Layout Design Research & Idea's
When I started the project I looked at different grid systems to see how they worked, I did this by tracing the grids which enabled me to creat my own system, I then researched different artists that use the great outdoors and materials they use to create their artwork. The two artists I studied were Andy Goldsworthy and Richard Long, they both gave me lots of inspiration and idea's on what I could look at when creating my work. Finally I brainstormed my idea's and eventually came up with three possible environments I could use: my uncles joinery workshop (wood and sawdust to create the grid), using electrical cables from the workshop or local woodland.
