I have decided to carry on with the thought that monkeys can exceed there own minds! I have drawn quite a few monkeys now... all with reflection on there faces. I have also dabbled with my research and tried drawing some of the characters e.g. the clapping monkey.. which was a great exercise to get my drawing monkeys in different ways.
I have chosen my favourite illustration already, which is a monkey with his hand holding up his chin thinking incredibly hard, this monkey has a red balloon attached to his wrist. I am liking this illustration the best because I can visualise it on a poster (referring back to the poster I research in my previous post.) As a hole the image symbolises what I wanted to communicate and showing what I enjoy doing as a designer which is primarily illustration.
I have the decision of choosing what colour pallet I am running with, I have decided already that its must be bold with warm positive colours! I know already that I want the balloon to be red, other from that the rest will follow through with much testing on photoshop.
I understand that it can be quite easy for a designer to get lost in there own design and forget that other people may not completely understand. So I have made sure to involve into the design the logo for the Arts University Collage Bournemouth so it belongs to something. I have involved a short tag line 'ASK YOURSELF', which complements the image in the way that the monkey is thinking and implying so should you. Underneth the tag line I have put in a lighter font 'Visual Communication' this is for recognition of the course and what you as a viewer of the poster should be thinking about.
Let's create a Visual Report to support this Poster!
