Assignment III Final

And now the final work.

Base on the assignment 2, backgroud changed to a colorful theme to convey the impression of the nature and the tornado is twisting everything and soon it'll be time for the house.
The statement "Save our only home" make a connection to the house in the bottom of the page , however the word "home" referes to the planet earth.
There is also some simple solutions given which could be done in our everyday lives.

The process

1.As it was told before on assignment II the background is made of eclipses using brush called "Fire ash". Then in the final work these eclipses is given different fill color and the transparency set to 53%.


2.The house is just a bit resized and the transparency type is set to "soft light" which makes it merged with the background.


3.Now it's time for the tornado to be appeared which is made of eclipses using "Splash" brush.


4.Next is to make the tornado more darker and more deeper. To do so another tornado is needed just on top of the first tornado in a seperate layer and transparency type should be set to "Color burn".


5.There is also some possible and easy solutions given in a paragraph using text tool.Transparency type is set to "Color Burn" as well.


6.When there is the twisting object in the page it couled be nice to put the design statement on one of the curve sides of the tornado. In this case, same curve is created using pen tool and then the text is applied to that path.

Assignment 3 Title: Tornado
Project Start Date: August 19, 2008 
Project Finish Date: September 9, 2008.

Project Objectives:

In this assignment as the final step to make the message clear and effective, I need to elaborate the tornado and the house to make it more connected to each other which means that the tornado is so abstract but the house is very real. As the matter of fact, they need to be more related.
The whole concept is to show one of the hazardous impacts of the global warming, which is stronger and deadlier tornadoes, and at the same time convey this message that if we act quickly we will definitely survive.

Approach:

The pen tool is the most used tool in the project with different brush effects. I traced the house from a picture taken from National Geographic web site, which showed the formation of a tornado far from a warehouse in a desert. The tornado was created with the reshaped circles to eclipses and resized to show the twisting clouds.

Roles and Responsibilities:

In the following week I’m going to make the necessary changes on assignment 2 to prepare it for the final assignment. This includes the changes in colors and after that I’m going to synchronize the statement and the design.

Comment:

The most important and difficult part for me is to make the design and statement (the texts) so clear and
Effective.
