Response: Critique

I think it is lucky than I am not a particularly competitive person because another week has passed, and I was not a winner. Sad. However, I still count this week as a success because I learned how to adapt text in illustrator (although I am not sure to what success) and create the "Krista" - as I am calling it for now - which means you have a picture and one element is cut out and hangs over the text and the rest of the image is behind. However, I did enjoy this week's assignment.

So, here is my final:












I know what you're thinking. This looks like last week's. Well, for those of you reading who are not in my class, once you show your three initial designs, you are supposed to tweak the one the editors liked the best. So, I kept with the same image, and I made adjustments to the placement of the different pieces of text.

Starting with the main compliant from last week, which was that the editors didn't like the location of the sell lines, I used the boxes created by the image to put them in the blank area. Then I decided to play with the font. I liked the title, Inspired Sound, so I decided to make it, well, in the words of my classmate Nick, more raw. I think I began to achieve that until I went cheesy and made a music note for the "d" of sound. I like my design even if it is a "winner."
