Lecture notes

January Sales

• Busy street
• Wintery vibes (cold background, hints of snowy texture like ice)
• Bold colours for people
• Red of the shoe is main point
• Point of show draws viewers eye back up
• Big dynamic diagonal of leg
• Slight cancellation with the street markings.

Post Tuesday crit:

• Fixed overlapping of shoes and clothes
• Redid colours to be more harmonious
• Added shadows and more definition to suggest shape

Vertigo

Plaster concrete walls and swirling sky.

Post Tuesday crit notes:

• ​Corrected perspective of the ladder
• Try different colours (red violent sky)
• Different texture layers

A giant leap

Post Tuesday crit notes:

• Figure doesn't look like its falling/leaping - unclear body language
• ​Background is too vibrant/busy - tone down saturation

Crumpled paper + acid wash background

Tango

Systems failure

Ambushed
