images
This week, I spent adapting these images for posters and looking to work with a dual-tone as a background. I am also thinking of creating a pattern as texture with baseball equipment and other baseball items. Next week I am looking to edit the images of the people so the lines can be smooth, create different textures of the background. I am looking to go along the theme of using the logo in the phrase, as huddle up.

Jayme!
ReplyDeleteI think that your idea to use Huddle Up in your postcards is a great. I especially like the image of the team in blue with gray hats and I think the logo fits perfectly. I also like the other image, “cooperation in action,” but that reminds me of a huddle as well. Maybe you could use the same saying on multiple postcards; it’s a great phrase.
As for the bats creating texture in the background, why do you need this? I really like the simplistic quality of your figures and I think that by adding the baseball bats you are just adding unnecessary texture. Also, I think that you should keep going with the Huddle Up idea and use phrases like, Batter Up next. You seem to be making big strides in your project and I can’t wait to see them in person!
Hey!
ReplyDeleteOut of all your images above I think that the 'Huddle up' and 'Cooperation in Action' are the most successful because of their compositions and utilization of space. I think background of the image directly above, with the child crouching down, has too much white space and the props (bat, mitten, hat) seem haphazardly placed. I think that the bat on the top poster isn't necessary because the baseball is already very identifiable and it seems like it's there just to fill space. I do love your name "UP"-- I thinks it's not only a great word but the type is nice and looks great against the fonts that isn't cursive.
Great job!
I agree that the 'Huddle UP' poster is my favorite. I also really like the colors in the two smaller ones pictured together of the boy crouched down and the two teammates hugging. I think the colors work well for the age groups you're aiming for. I like the idea of making patterns and I like the two from your last post. The last image has a lot of potential for becoming some kind of collage or pattern. The lines above the figures head are confusing. The first poster has a lot going on. I wonder what would happen if you played with the opacity of certain objects and layering them together. I was just imagining a poster with the large baseball in front and then other baseballs getting smaller and smaller but with less opacity so it's like it is moving across the page.
