Converse poster 

I like her art its bold and playful with a pattern design this is bold and unusual the comical styled writting reminds me of doodles and it youthful.

She has done many magazine covers and commercials for famous brands such as Nike and converse.

To complete her work she does the pencil outline of her work gathering the compact the darkens the overall outline carries this into illistrator and drops the colour into the work making it the bright designs she's known for.

New and improved page layout

This is my original copy it had mismatched colours and fonts and also appeared quite flat. The images also did not sit right in the given boxes also the story titles also appeared flat.

I changed my faults by changing the images and image sizes to sit correctly in the box. I also added colour to the story titles that matches the new matching red of the boxes. The two headlines now match fonts and subheadings.The new layout is more vivid and colourful allowing it to pop and stand this  hopefully means it will attract an audience.

Layout for the south downs newspaper

This one of my layout which has a high impact due to the stand out colours. I have also used my typography to make my headlines stand out with a minimalist design which does not get you sidetracked from the articles themselves. 

This is my practise layout for the college newspaper it is brighter with more graphic elements and images than the last one. I used the pencil tool to create a title that is clear and fun. There is no special fronts this does make it dull to improve this page i could add more colours.

making avatars

Using your selected image and open it within photoshop firstly try using adjustments to replace colour selecting the needed skin tones create the blue skin if this does not work use the paint bucket tool on a new layer and blend it into the background photo.

On a new layer use liquifys plucker tool to pull the eyes out of the image forming avatar eyes.

To make the eyes yellow make a new layer with 2 circles over the eyes and using the paint bucket make them yellow after doing this try fading the colour into the eyes.

To add the white use the paint brush first soft strokes to create the skin  tones and over the tone use harsh brush then blend them into the skin.

To finish the avatar feel of you can insert the hair although mine was hard due to the angle of the face and the hair.
