Emotions Project

The emotions project was a project that I needed to take an emotion and only using that word, create an image that matches the word. So for example I took strong and by using the word strong created an image that reflected its meaning. Some things that influenced my work was different fonts, filling space and placing the letters where I thought they would fit best. Another key principle was balance. It was really important to balance the letters that created the image. I made this design my own in many ways. I was able to use my own emotion words and create images that I felt would reflect the meaning of each word. I picked, Happy, Strong, Confused and Angry. Deciding what colors to use was also very influential. The process I went through was to first find the words I wanted to use. Next I sketched out what I thought lines would look like for each word and then I went ahead and created an image on Illustrator. It was very tricky to come up with original Ideas.
