PROJECT BACKGROUND

What is the project? What are we creating and why? What are we trying to

achieve with this project? What is the core message that should be communicated?

This project is focused on fresno, I recently got a drawing pad and am trying to add my traditional fine art skills to digital media using multiple modern tools while adding my personal touch and skill. We are starting with a mermaid, which is the logo for my art merch branch of my business, The Fire Yoke, in order to create more assets as well ass develop/practice digital art skills. The core message is an intelligence and calm emotion that inspires and invokes creativity.

TARGET AUDIENCE & JUSTIFICATION:

about them that can help us reach them? What is your plan to appeal to

this audience?

Target audience is artistic outcasts in society drawn to a funky, psychedelic, almost cyber/steam punk vibe.

Reflection

THINGS LEARNED

Please answer each question below.

1. What are a few things you learned while working on this project?

Learned how to use firefly to create inspiration and models and alter them in fresno to make personal and then many drawing techniques to add personalization and human touch from an idea and model.

• What are you most proud of? What was most difficult for you?
  • I think the design came out well, especially the mermaid, I initially liquified the image to distort than use as a backdrop then turned off the layer to make my own drawing on an artboard, I am proud of how my fine art skills transferred through fresno into new medias like paint and ink that were difficult as they are out of my comfort zone, especially dealing with color. The backround waves were also difficult. And creating images out of thin air is in general hard for me so I continuously turned off backlayer to try and strengthen my raw drawing abilities.
• How effective is your project in communicating the message? Why?
  • I think it effectively relates the message of intelligence as well as synthwave feelings to shoot at outcasts well, however I think the color scheme could be a little bit better and vibrant to truly encapsulate the synth vibe I was looking for.
