Final piece from "What Kind of Drinker Are You?" brief.
Here is my final piece from my "What Kind of Drinker Are You?" brief. I have really enjoyed this brief; firstly due to my love of comics and graphic novels and secondly because I tend to enjoy projects more when I am working to create an inventive way to educate people. I like to be able to think around a topic, considering facts and then creating a quirky way to educate - Generally I like using a satirical humour in my work, using a jokey tone to draw in a viewer but then hoping that the joke itself will strike a chord and help them to understand the message.
For the background I have simply scanned in a page from a "Spiderman" book that I have at home and applied the "Cut-Out"filter to it on photo shop. I then adjusted the contrast and brightness of the image so that it didn't detract too much from the primary image. I really like this technique as I really like the visual that a paper-cut technique creates.
To view one of my favourite artists of the moment employing the use of paper cuts go to www.mycardboardlife.com. Philipa Rice is a fantastic artist who uses a really simple and quirky style to create really funny short stories. I am in love!
