Lies! I wanted to make a poster that brings to attention all the lies that happens in Mexico.
All the blood that is shed due to the Cartel and corrupt government yet nothing seems to happen.

I went with a bull as my simple object due to the fact that this whole semester
I have been using bulls as my choice of work. Since I am a huge baseball fan
I used the term bullpen to make a Sports Analyst logo. So I created a bulls head
by using the tip of a pen as the main part of the bull and just added horns and other minor details.

I wanted to go with something that speaks out as a sports analyst. So what came to mind
was the old school way with a typewriter and then also pen to paper. 

I chose to do my great minds project on Stefan Sagmeister. Ever since I heard that he
had his intern carve the AIGA poster into his skin I knew that guy would be interesting.

Sequence









And here is my sequence from the first layer to the last layer.

9 Layer Image

I had fun cutting out the shapes and making a piece of artwork from it. I have never done something like this
but when Rafa mentioned it. It sounded very interesting to do.

Black and White and Corresponding Color Patterns










This project exercise also was very useful to me because it helped me
make patterns were i then applied it to my logos and packing class.

Color Composition Grids





I absolutely loved working on this project making the different gradations and what
not was so fun. I really enjoyed making the 5 variations. 

Black and Grey Layouts All in One

A better view at all of them at once and with out the visible grid.

Black and Grey Layout Grids









Doing all of these grid layouts helped me find layouts for some of my personal projects.
This exercise helped out a lot.

Logo Sketch

So my logo I liked the most was the blue one in the top right. Where I paired up the
bold and thin typefaces 

10 Fonts/6 Font Palette Options


When i was looking for a typeface to go with my logo I had in mind using a Bold
typeface and pair it up with a thin one.

9 Borders

Sean should the class how to make an object rotate and place perfectly.
I was mind blown when he showed us that technique. 

Emotional Color Collage

Orange=Giants Fever
Thats all I could think of when the word orange came to mind.
Congrats 2014 CHAMPS!!
