Monogram 3.0

This assignment takes a long period to complete. This is because it contains 35% :O which is very very high. Our next task on the Monogram assignment is to design and make two poster. We were not supposed to print it out but stencil it only. The first poster is quite easy, we just have to stencil our Monogram on an A3 (any texture) on mounting board. The second one is quite hard because we tasked to make the second poster into something like a wrapping paper. Like some famous brands, they created another patterns with their main logo. This is very challenging and to be honest I love this part the best. For this, we don't have to get any approval from Ms Lisa because we were supposed to surprise her with our creativity.

For the first one, I had a little accident.

The dried spray paint at the back of my stencil came off when I use spray mount to stick my stencil on the A3 mounting board. This was not what I wanted but the accident wasn't that bad at all. To me, it looks cooler. I also made a gradient for this afterwards.














Later, something happened again. This time, I find my logo's composition is not that good. So, I added this pentagon to balance it.
















As for the second poster. I sprayed gold on my mounting board. Accident happens again.. Oh no. I wanted the gold surface to be smooth but unfortunately some area are darker. But it looks really nice tho. Then, I did some pattern designs using spray.


Those wasn't really what I want. I feel very frustrated after that. But then, an idea suddenly appear on my mind. I decided to stencil my logo on the gold surface with a black marker pen. This is because black really stands out with gold.

The sketch I did for the second poster.

This is quite challenging and hard. But I know this will really turn out great if I managed to complete it.

At first I wanted to make it into a hexagon shape. But then, the composition of the pattern on the A3 size mounting board was not good at all.. I don't want to waste that gold mounting board. Therefore, I kept thinking and thinking and thinking... In the end, I came out with an idea of making it into a star shape instead of hexagon shape. With this, my pattern will look more interesting and the composition will be better.












I will post the final products of my posters on the next post. So stay tuned :P
