About the final project for: Lettering with Adobe Fresco: Create Tasteful Images with Words

Lettering with Adobe Fresco: cook pictures with words and letters

“As much as I enjoy eating, I also enjoy writing lyrics. Now is your time to apply everything you've learned to create a great feast of letters, textures, and colors using Adobe Fresco. Remember that Adobe Fresco is a painting tool, so you can draw 3D letters in a different way without having a 3D program, that is, understanding the nature of textures, you will simulate them in your compositions. Let me explain what I want to see in your final project. For the final project, you will have to choose the foods that you like the most and imitate their textures to apply them to one or more words. I recommend that they be from 2 to 3 so that it is much more manageable when it comes to ordering your layers. Don't worry if you don't do something realistic, as it is also valid to approach the project in more traditional ways when drawing. For example: you can imitate the texture of cheese, but the end result is not necessarily going to be a real cheese, so take the opportunity to learn and observe how to get to those textures but adding the ingredient of fun and perseverance in the process. . There are so many foods in the world that can help you build your project. For example, you can make letters with pasta, caramel, honey, liquid coffee, gummies, chocolate, cream, ice cream, meat, sausages, sauce or French fries ... Anyway, you can use the type of food you like the most to practice , draw it and imitate it.

To support your final composition you must provide a mood board that shows the color palette of your project and the references of all types of food that you will use to create letters, the textures and materials will also have to be seen. You must share an image that shows the final sketch with which you will work.
Finally, share photos and the link where I can see the video of your process, also, accompany them with a short text in which you tell me how your experience was when creating this composition. Tell me what Pin you used, if you used the ones I shared and taught you or if you preferred to add others.
I hope that beyond learning to draw letters, apply textures and create compositions, now you think about all the possibilities that open up when understanding how to enhance its use in your personal or brand projects. It may seem like a lot of things at first, but little by little and with practice you will become familiar with all the tools that Fresco offers. Do not hold back if at first it seems frustrating that the letters are not very straight or as you thought them; letters and all disciplines are learned with practice and patience, so you have to warm up your hand to be able to create that muscle memory that we need when drawing. Try to have fun! Any questions you have, remember that you can write it in the forum and I will gladly answer you. Be patient as I will periodically check the forum and attend to each request as soon as I see it. Remember that I will also be in side projects, so I may not be there every day, but for sure I will find the times in my week to do it. If you think that any of your colleagues has a question that you can help solve, write to them. There is nothing more rewarding than receiving help from those who are practicing the same things as you. Thank you very much for taking my course, remember that if in addition to sharing your final project in the Domestika community you decide to share it on Instagram, Facebook or any other social network, you can use the #NubikiniDomestika to see your projects, I can share them and give you feedback. I will be looking forward to seeing your project. See you soon on the forum!”

Partial transcription of the video

“Final project By now, you should have your composition ready. I would like to know if you printed the tote bag, decorated your kitchen or if something else occurred to you. I thank you very much for having accompanied me in this course. I hope that what I taught you will serve you in your future projects. Remember, from the mood board, select your favorite elements. In this course, we have talked a lot about food, but Fresco offers you a very wide variety of tools that you can adapt to your personal taste. Keep in mind the concepts of guide lines and graticule from the sketch. This way you ...”
