Project 8-9 Critique

Project 8

So everyone This my che poster. I made this poster when i was learning about photoshop in North Shore Community College. We were told to create revolution poster and i made one about the man that i think is the most revolutionist of them all che guevara. I picked this abstractive look because i wanted to represent the time era of the cuban revolution. i wanted to show that it wasn't pretty during that era. I also wanted to do something different by doing this abstractive look. The quote in stand in english  " Better to walk barefoot than rob in sandals.", and this  quote truly represent what che guevara was to the people of cuban.























Project 9

So this project is a two part project. The first part of this long project was to create a advertising for and exciting company. The second part was to take the advertising and push it and turn it into a concept.

First part.
The company i show's was apple computer to the advertising for, and what i wanted to show is my representation or old meets new. I think, I accomplish that  by using a old painting called the school of athens and adding apple ipad product to the student and teachers. I also added catchy headlines "They got theirs, where is your" that i think it goes well with the ad.

Second part.
 This part were i push the advertising and turn it to a concept. What i did is turn this concept into the ipad app store, but this is no ordinary app store this app store has a an ad  when use the ipad landscape and you are in the app store the ad will show, but if you use the ipad in portrait the ad will go away. I am also pushing the concept by making ad the app store icon.

  1. Jose - Che poster is striking and lovely. I think you ought to include the English translation of the quote. Also - what else can you do to this image of Che? We have all become quite familiar with it, so your next step might be to find a way to use it in a slightly different way. Could the shape of his silhouette hold a texture, or another image? Is this a place to include maps of Bolivia and/or Cuba - the 2 revolutions he was involved in before he was assassinated.

    Apple ad - not sure I see the added iPads as clearly as I need to in the 1st ad. Wait, the only thing I do see is... a laptop! What's the deal? If this is about iPads, then that's all that should be there, and we need to really SEE them. Revisit the image in photoshop and add more iPads in a way that we'll see them pretty quickly.

    If this is a series of 2 ads... they will need to be much more unified than I see here. They look completely separate - with nothing in common. Here is an idea for Ad #2, etc - why not find other old paintings and use the same compositing technique? That might create a cohesive series with a shared concept between them.

    Note: The headline should probably read: "They have theirs, so where is yours?
