Digital Illustration class at George Brown

Yesterday I finished all my assignments for my Digital Illustration class and submitted them by the due date, yay :) It was a class to get familiar with using a Wacom pen and tablet, and used mostly Adobe Illustrator - a graphic design type program.

Assignment #1: Garden Assignment
We were being assessed on how well we could trace things using the pen, and use the Colour Guide to create a completed design.

Assignment #2: Border Motif
Assessed on how well we used various shape creation tools to make a border.


Assignment #3: Character design
Assessed on how well we used layers for each part of the character and had them layered and named logically.


Assignment #4: Stamp
We had to design a postage stamp, and create the scalloped stamp border ourselves using circles and the align tool, as well as having the layers organised, etc.

Assignment #5: Brushes
In addition to all the layers stuff we had to show that we could create and/or modify each of the four brush types in Illustrator. Plus we had to design and include a stylised artists signature/logo.


Assignment #6: Fishbowl
Using all the previous stuff as well as the new concepts of gradient meshes, symbols and patterns we had to create a fish in a fishbowl. And have it show some depth and stuff. It has way more detail than you can see in this jpeg, lol. eg. the fish has scales, and everything is a lot more crisp.


Assignment #7: Poster
We had to create a poster reminiscent of the Art Nouveau/Art Deco style around the concept of "peace". It was hoped that we would include a portrait of some kind in the design. 


So there you go. We haven't gotten our marks back, but that is what I did in my class for the past dozen weeks or more. Tah dah :D
