Fall Raccoon
Our first part of the assignment for Adobe Illustrator was to create a raccon with a fall vibe. So to achieve a fall vibe I added a light pink background because it is a soft color and fall reminds me of soft colors. Another object I added to achieve a fall vibe was berries and trees. My image for creating the tress was to sort of copy the Mulan trees. I really enjoy using Adobe Illustrator because its fun and gives the creator a more ability to create their artistic design then staying in photoshop. Another reason i enjoyed Adobe Illustrator and why my experience with the program was so enjoyable was Adobe Illustrator is very simple to use and once you master the program it can really bring your work to life.
Raccoon Postcard
The other part of our first Adobe Illustrator project was to create a postcard using the raccoon we created above. My Vision for the postcard was to create a 4th of July themed postcard. I wanted to make the postcard as American as I could because that what 4th of July is all about expressing your freedom and happiness for living in the best country in the world. To make the most american postcard possible I made the raccoon in a Donald Trump shirt, holding two flags, with stars and stripes bowtie, and a starts and stripes top hat. Overall I really liked how my postcard turned out and think that I did a really great job creating the postcard to a 4th of July theme. If I were to change one thing about the project however I would add fireworks in the background and possibly add an eagle to the bottom of the raccoon to make it look like the raccoon was riding the eagle.
Behance
The last part to our project was to upload our project to Behance. Bechance is a website where other graphic design artist upload their works for other graphic artist to view. The uploading process is fairly simple.
