my all time favorite design from Moore

Out of all of his work, this one has got to be one of my favorites of all time:

Moore used the same design, but he used color and black-and-white to see the difference. It's obvious they have the same pop art feeling, but the one on the left has glows from the lighter colors while the black-and-white one feels more like you're being sucked in. I think Moore made a good decision about making two of the same design but change the colors and see if one says a complete different story than the other one.

If you want to learn more about his work, check out http://mwmgraphics.com/index.html. I will say this much: you will not be disappointed with his works. They are amazing!

moore's logos and designs

Matt W. Moore does more both logos and designs. I thought these logos were interesting and unique.

He uses line weight to this logo but reflects it on the other side by chaning the line weight from the middle outward (thick to thin).

He also did this as well, which left me curious about why he did this design and wha it meant.

I think it means that he wants world peace because the peace sign is next/wrapped around the earth.

Moore works mostly with design. But these apparel/art designs forcused more on either color, geometry, or both.






Each one of these images focuses on how he uses the shapes, colors, and/or type to his advantage. He's mostly careful with color this situation because I think he wants us to look at its intricate details or its simplicity.

He did more than just these designs. If you're curious abou it, go to http://mwmgraphics.com/fashion_apparel.html to check it out.

the google logo

Whenever we go on google we always see its logo changed from a different shape to a completely new look. Well, while I was looking up an artist for my color and design class, I found out he was one of the designers who did this:


Matt W. Moore is the designer/artist who made this google logo. I really like how he uses the circles as line weight or end points for each letter. For example, if you look at the "G," you can notice that the top and where it starts to curve it gives emphasis that it's a "G."

This is not the only logo he made for Google. If you're curious about his google logo designs, go to http://mwmgraphics.com/typography_google.html to look at them.

real or fake?

I found this image from instagram and thought this was interesting. You leave yourself questioning whether it's real or a painting because the little girl is using the fire distinguisher to eliminate the dragon's fire.

So i found this picture on facebook and thought this was funny that has meaning. The artist uses the objects to make a word we would get automatically and laugh about it. I also like the two colors the artist uses to make the objects two dimensional; it also gives it a birds eye view of it too.

My favorite image


Out of all the projects I did for digital imaging, this one would have to be my favorite becasue of the dark/intense colors for the ground, water, island, sky, and the floating tree/castle. But, there's a downside to it. You (and including myself and I was told about this by some people about it) CANNOT use any anime/manga (japanese cartoon shows/graphic novels) in your portfolio. college you plan to transfer to will not accept and refuse to look at them. So do not do it. (I did it because my project was due at the last second and had to come up with something I could do quickly without having a hassle with.)

But I'm planning on using that ground for something else (definitely not for this idea). It will be based on Once Upon A Time (and probably have unicorns in it?). I'm still thinking about it, but I really want to work on it over break.

Art Show at DCCC

As you all know, the art exhibition show is going on from now until November 30th. And, as a surprise to me, my one (and only one) work has made it.


Our digital imaging class had to make three images on technoscape (it can be anything from modern to futuristic). I think the judges picked this one because of the colors and how active it looks. I honestly have no idea why they picked it, but for whatever the reason may be I'm glad they like it.
This is what i had to work on for Color and Design. We had to make either a topographic or geometric gradient work. I stuck with the topographic and ended up with this. I was told to fix it because (1) my cuts were not good and (2) the background was not a good selection. Even though my gradients were good, I ended up with a final result of this:
I really like this one becaus the grey scale background makes the colored pieces pop out and the last strip in teh background fades and turns into the border.

Happy Birthday CBS logo!

Okay...so I was reading a section on CBS's logo for my chapter presentation and realized that the first logo appeared on November 16 in 1951, and today is November 16. So HAPPY BIRTHDAY CBS LOGO!!

The person who created the logo, William Golden, thought of getting rid of the eyeball. It's a good thing he didn't because it is a good way of putting the name of the station in the pupil instead of somewhere else.

GOOGLE

I thought this was a clever way of replacing the letters with objects, so that the viewer knows they can read the letters easily. I used this technique for my current illustrator project by replacing the O's with doughnuts for my title, which is "FOODIES." It also gives the title a loose and relax feeling instead of its serious, bold colors.
