Week 8 - Pixel Portrait

For week 8 homework we got to make a pixel portrait from 5 staffs of Billy Blue.
Desiree told us to make it on the Photoshop and i think she's right it is much more easier than make it using Illustrator.
And this is pretty much what i've done...

Revolutionary Symbol

THE FLEUR DE LIS BLUE PATTERN

Part of the official seal of the city of Louisville, the fleur-de-lis is a symbol that represents French aid given during the Revolutionary War.




YIN AND YANG

Yin and Yang are the underlying principles of Chinese philosophy and medicine. Good health is believed to come from a balance of Yin (negative, dark, and feminine) and Yang (positive, bright, and masculine).
And this symbol is now become a symbol for goodness and bad.

Week 6 - ReBus

What is Rebus???
Rebus is a kind of word puzzle that use picture to represent the word.

This is one example of popular Rebus that has been used as the symbol of IBM.




In week 6 class exercise, each group have to make a rebus from a famous quote.
This is my rendering Rebus :D


And finally our group chose to make a rebus from a quote "Knowledge is Power"

Barangaroo Green Campaign Symbol

In week 6, all the group have to present their final symbol for the green campaign of Barangaroo.

At class, my group is already discuss what symbol that we are going to use as the final symbol.
This is pretty much what we've been doing on the sketch book.
For the first time we didn't even know what symbol that we are going to choose (too many sketch too many idea but none of it really works)



And finally we decide to use the heart-shaped leaves.
The concept is to tell people that "Green is Healthy"
We symbolized green by using the leaves and health by using the heart-shaped as we usually define as our heart.
This was our inspiration



Then we try to make it as a symbol using illustration.





This is another symbol that we make, we try to symbolized a leaves in abstract way.



That is pretty much what we are making and we just have to decide which one that we are going to use as our final symbol.

Combination of Symbols

This is a video of The Combination of Symbols.
In this video we can see that how a symbol has turned into so many shape and got a new look of perspective but still keep the true meaning of the symbol itself.
