Problem 4 - Final

Panels one through eight of Problem 4. Character/Object Dominance: Sequence & Theme - Designing a Visual Storyline.

The goal of this series was to create a series of sequentially or thematically related compositions that clearly demonstrate the dominance of the following characteristics. I chose to illustrate themes including life, evolution, and the passage of time in this piece, using animation as a means to convey these ideas. I used mostly organic shapes, soft colors, and soft music to further illustrate these themes.

In order, the eight panels represent: rhythmic, natural, dynamic,symmetrical, geometric, animate, asymmetrical, and inanimate.

Problem 4 - Panels 1-4

Panels one through four of Problem 4. Character/Object Dominance: Sequence & Theme - Designing a Visual Storyline.

In order, the first four panels represent: rhythmic, natural, dynamic, and symmetrical.

Problem 2 - Panel 1

pri·mal /ˈpraɪməl/ [prahy-muhl] –adjective
1.
first; original; primeval: primal eras before the appearance of life on earth.
2.
of first importance; fundamental: the primal resources of a nation.

Primal"was my word for our second problem, the goal of which was to create a cumulative series of abstract designs employing the following elements: dominance, cumulative, accent shaping, decoration, pattern and texture. I chose the color scheme on a triad from the 12 hue system based on the colors orange, bluegreen, and purple to represent earthy, natural but still colorful tones. I thought of primal as both early cultural lifestyles and primal elements, and aimed to create, colorful and bold, yet flowing and soft compositions.
