Objectives:
Today in our graphic design lesson our tutor wanted to test us on which skills and knowledge we have gained from Photoshop in the past few weeks. The way he did this was by asking us to create two separate mood boards. One was about “Trash” and the other was about “sci fi”.
"Sci Fi" mood board.
The first mood board was the “sci fi” one where we had to try and use our imagination to try create something similar to the movie “Deep Space 12”. To get me started I wanted to use an eye catching blue sci fi background to give the audience that space feel. As well as that, I wanted to make this mood board like a montage of space and sci fi features, such as alien pictures. People have more of an understanding of the gaming context nowadays. I used tools such as magic wand and lasso tool for this task. Maybe next time I can add some features towards the bottom of the moodboard, because at the moment it is looking very blank meaning it doesn’t really look like a montage.
"Trash" Moodboard
My next mood board was created to make something similar to the game “Trash”. Before I made this, I had a really good understanding of cars and the sort of features which would look good for this mood board. Again I included many features relating to the topic, in this case cars: for example I used a speed dashboard which is part of a car. I used tools such as magic wand and lasso tool again. Next time I plan to use more time designing because I may have rushed it this time. I would say this is more of a montage.
