Cubism mock-up book cover

Futurism Final Book Cover & Evaluation

Overall I think that my Futurism photo went well. During the photo-shoot for my pictures I learnt a lot about shutter speed and learnt how to take pictures well using shutter speed. As well as this I have learnt new skills in Photoshop. My final piece for my Futurism turned out far better then my mock up. If I was to do this project again I would aim to take better quality Pictures. 

Final Cubism Book Cover & Evaluation

Overall I think that my final Cubism piece went very well. I prefer my final piece to my mock up one although I used a lot more colour in my mock up one. Well putting my cubism photos together on Photoshop I learnt a lot of skills, I learnt how to skew photos and how to use the inner glow tool to add the cube effect into my photos. If I was to do this project again and my photo-shoot I would try to be more creative with the photos that I take.

Typography Research

What is Typography?

Typography is the use of typefaces as a meaning of communication. It begun with Gutenberg and the development of moved type. Typography has its ways in handwritten letter forms also. Typography also includes designers who make new letter forms as well so that designers and calligraphers who use these letters can add it as part of their designs. As well as this Typography uses typefaces and the white space around and through them to create a whole design.

The picture above is a good example of typography. There all different types of texts, in different forms and ways. Typography can be done by hand or on computers with different formats and fonts.

3 Design Elements, Typography.

 I like this typography book cover because there is a lot going on in it, and it very colourful. I like the use of the text as well, how it is scattered around the page. I think that this makes the book cover a good form of typography. They layout is very effective and has been thought about well to scatter the letters around the page but for it till still make sense.

 I also like this typography book cover because its plain and simple and doesn't look as if someone has had to put loads of effort into it just to even make it look the tiniest bit good. It is very creative with the joined up lines and they have not used too much colour. Although I like this book cover a lot I do not think that it looks like something  I would read. And the title does not tell you much about the story. The way the have put the text makes this Typography book cover.

I really like this this typography book cover because, it has lots of colour, and it has a lot of things going on in it. Its also because it isnt a boring book cover and because they havent been lazy and just used normal text. The thing i like most about the text is how they have put it in on massive speach bubble as if it iscoming out of the cars exhaust. They have used a good type of text as well and also the pattern to go with the text is good too.

Cubism

In the 1900, the Eastman Kodak company introduced a low priced, point and shoot, hand-held camera, called the brownie camera. Artists were free to express themselves with paint instead of recording the image. The cameras could do their jobs now. Artists were free to express themselves, Society began seeing things from a fresh perspective.

Artists working in paint were beginning to interest themselves in all new creations in order to survive the competition. The 'cubists' were trying to overthrow the existing order and to explore spatial relationships, free of restraint. 

Between 1907 and 1914, the 'cubists' were actively experimenting. This brief period was revolutionary. George Braque, inventor of cubism. Braque and Picasso worked together ( for Cezanne to cubism). Cézanne's painting was that he did not try to deny the two-dimensional quality of a paintings surface. Photography had begun to replace painting as the tool for documenting the age

This is a well know futurists work. This piece was made by Filippo Tommaso Marinetti. The name of this piece is: THE FUTURIST MANIFESTO (1909)

I like this piece of work because it is very interesting and is also one of his first pieces. I also like it because the colours stand out loads and because of how he has used the shapes to create this picture. This picture fits in with futurists urban designs because of the person on the bike.
