Final Chapter - We Are The World
Mission accomplished. Good work well done. Let's hope for the best....
Chapter 32 - Combine!!! FUSION!!!!
And we got it!!! And we're done!!!We Are The World
We Are Her Children
So Lets Start Caring
Exactly what must be implemented into all of our heads!!!
I reused the ideation of Mother Earth, for detail inscription please refer to Assignment 2 in the older post.
Baby and lamb were also ideations from the Assignment 2
The stars and the universe is used as a background to illustrate the Earth as a whole planet...in a motherly sort of way. It is a representation of the World.
The wordings are colored in blue in order to act as a contrast as well as bringing in harmony values
The other wordings are colored in greenish blue in order to represent forest and river.....as well as acting as a contrast to the background.
Design Fundamentals
What to say? = The importance of stopping deforestation
How to say it? = Illustrating Earth as a mother and we're her children, as well as relating the fact of deforestation as a manner of destroying the beauty of Mother Earth.
Elements of design
Line = Some lines are curvy whereas some lines are straight. All the lines combine together to form images just as shown in the poster. The letters were design in such a font to stress out the point.
Shape = The images hold the shapes of living things...yes including Mother Earth. Making it stronger over the fact that living things are valuable and should be cared. The text are also in that particular shape to stress out on the importance of the message.
Value = As you can see...the entire posterisnt mere 2d. Mother Earth isbrought forward as a way to show her importance as well as appealing. But she is place before the text, so that the viewers would be able to read the text. Animals and human are placed under the tonal position to show their similarities in terms of responsibilities to Mother Earth
Color = Most of the colors used are representational of real life things, such as baby skin, hair, goat, universe, light, ground, forest, and river. The wordings are in blue and green in order to show contrast, as well as abiding by the theme of Mother Earth. Besides that, the colors also depict the mood of peacefulness for easier message transfer to the audience.
Texture = A poster texture is mere flat to suit its practical needs.
Chapter 31 - Text Manipulation
Text manipulation time. By using the Text tool as well as the pen tool, i am able to create various shape i desire. Then by creating outlines, then color them with gradient tool.Then the effects come in. Apply some effects such as svg and stylizations.
Finally voila rearrange them in a nice manner just as seen above, and we got the wordings.
On the note..color blue is used to show harmony as well as a contast and stand out from the universe color at the background.
At the below, a gradient of blue and green is used as representatives of jungle and rivers, as well as a standout besides the blue wordings.
Chapter 30 - Process 4 Logo
Nothing much to do here. Its just copy and paste and resize.....simple...
Chapter 29 - Process 3 Mother Earth Redo...
I redid the Mother Earth, adding in some changes with extra brush effect to make it look more....ground-ny
Chapter 28 - Process 2 ( WIngs )
And thus, now i am doing the wings. As you can see....the wings are actually combination of several 'feathers' recopied and repasted and resized and manipulated with effects in order to show the changes . Alot of effects are used here in order to show the angelic and holy mood..such a transparency, blurness, etc.Chapter 27 - The Process
Taking the idea of universe, i tried to recreate a universe with a source of light as the center, where it will be used to attract people's attention to the middle. The things i used are...rectangle tool, life paint, flare tools, sprayer tools.
Chapter 26 - Strategy Plannings
Assignment 3 : We Are The World
Project start date : 19 August 2008
Project finish date: 8 September 2008
Contact number : 014-6453107
Email : Enishi90@hotmail.com
Mission Objectives
Raise awareness of the ignorant public over the dangers of Deforestation
on beautiful Mother Earth.
Raise awareness of the ignorant fools over their responsibilities to Mother
Earth
Raise awareness of the ignorant humans who cant even act out their responsibilities
while the animals carried theirs since the begining of time in contributing to Earth.
In assignment 1, a rough figure of a feminine person performing ballet, to show the
feminism values of Mother Earth as well as stressing over the analogy of the Earth as
a woman. Look how tarnished she is when tree are cut down, leaving her....bald.
In assignment 2, is a rough ideation over the fact that even with deforestation, Mother
Earth care for us and animals alike. That we are all actually a part of a family that create
the world.
In assignment 3, is a poster in an attempt to bring attention to the people over our responsibilities and to show that we are indeed...one...and therefore we should start caring for each other.
Intended Tools and Equipment needed for the Mission
1, Pen tool, live paint bucket, shapes, brush.
2, Copy/paste, symbols, sprayer, sprayer tools.
3, Gradient tool Linear and Radial, Flare tool.
4, Outer glow, blur, shadow, effects, text effects, live trace.
Notices
While in the process of completing the poster aka mission, certain things i did put into consideration. Among them are the quality and the amount of tools used that contribute to its quality. Futhermore, the message that i intend to reach out to public must be clear, but not too clear or it would appear dull and not interesting. It must be something that attracts attention from a far, as well as potray Mother Earth as a beautiful Angel, and us humans as pathetic and useless but still cared by her. The hardest thing i experienced were the choice of colors, and the effects, since i had to do alot of experiments to get it done.

Chapter 24 - We Are The World.
Base on my research on deforestation, more and more forest are being cleared up daily. DAILY FOLKS!!! THAT"S SERIOUS!!! If one would look at the ground from bird view..( Malaysia especially ) you will be shock to see how ugly our land really is. With all those holes and gaps...god bless us.
This is a view i saw when i was boarding an airplane long time ago. And that was 2 years ago, and it pained me to imagine how the ground looks right now. But this is only view from an airplane folks. Imagine looking at Mother Earth from outerspace!!! That would be a horrifying sight indeed.
Ever watch Wall-E? If readers to this have not; please watch it immediately. It gives a clearcut insight on the outcome of our Mother should deforestation continues.
Ultimately the skies would be dirty and difficult to breath, Earth would be hotter, and sandstorms would definitely become a norm every single corner of the world. There's no better movie to describe this then Wall-E, like they say pictures speak a thousand words...and thousand of words isn't enough to alert the people of this world on this horrible truth.
What wordings would be best to act as a shout out to the world i wondered. And after very much useless thinking, i couldnt find the answer. Finally i heard a very famous song from Michael Jackson, We Are The World. Voila..
Deforestation could be stop....and thus my 'slogan' would be
We Are The World
We Are Her Children
So Lets Start Caring
Adapted from Michael Jackson's famous song We Are The World.

Chapter 23 - Research and Reresearch and Rereresearch
Since i am doing deforestation, thus of course i use my best friend the wikipedia to read of deforestation and its effects, thus...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deforestation
Motherhood and everything the best place to refer is of course, religion, thus i refered to some sections of the Bible and the Quran. I didnt read the entire book again of cuz, i just asked some friend's help to pinpoint me the right place to read.
In order to utilize the idea of Earth being divine, i figured to use wings or angelic wings. Thus i search for angel in again, my best friend....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angels
And finally in order to do research on Mother Earth, i refered to GAIA, the greek goddess of Earth. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_(mythology)
