Koski_Grid Bilateral

There wasn't really a designer but it was a website that sets up ads etc...Lisa Star is the founder of the site ---> http://www.dramaticworkstheatre.com/ and the year was 2009. The structure used was Bilateral.

Davila_Radial Grid System

I found a James Brown concert poster for Winstar Casinos that used a radial grid system. The design was made in 2007 by Sergio Moctezuma, the senior art director for Tribal DDB.

Sikes_assignment4

I picked an ad from a 17 magazine made by Neutrogena in 2011. It uses an axial grid and the axis is on the far right of the page. It's similar to Kisa Brown's layout on page 27 of our book along with Odermatt and Tissi's layout on page 21.

I figured I really didn't need to repost a second image considering the image already shows the grid which is a typical grid, grid system. The poster was designed by BLT & Associates for the movie Vantage Point.

Blog Assignment #4 GRIDS

BLOG ASSIGNMENT #4: GRIDS
The last few weeks we've been discussing the use of different grid systems (axial, radial, dilatational, random, grid, modular, transitional and bilateral) as a starting point for laying out compositions.

Included in your post assignment: An example of one of these grid structures. Include the Designer name/Company and year. You will post up two images. The original image AND the image with an overlay demonstrating the grid structure. Refer to the Kimberly Elam book "Typographic Systems". You can create the overlay image by lowering the original opacity in Photoshop and drawing a colored layer on top pointing out the grid structure. Remember to save it as a jpg when finished.

Add the label "grids". If the labels are not present you will not receive credit. The labels are meant for organization. If post are not labeled they will get lost in the blog. Therefore...no labels...no grade!!

DUE by Thursday, April 14th by 8am (BEFORE CLASS!!!)

Revised Draft

Davila_Lucia Di Lammermoor

I am debating over which typeface is more appropriate for the Lammmermoor opera. I like both, but I think Futura is more attention grabbing and has better readability.



*Revised: I worked on my first rough and evened everything out. please tell me what you think.
