About the final project for: Digital Illustration: Geometric Pop Art

Digital Illustration: Geometric Pop Art

“Now your time has come: the challenge for you is to create a digital illustration, having fun connecting to the imagery of the 80s. These are the five key steps you need to follow to complete your project. Look for the right reference : take inspiration from a movie character, a poster, a toy or a packaging of those years. Open Photoshop and sketch your subject using the symmetry technique, which will help you create a visually neat digital illustration.

Then make the outline with Illustrator and enjoy adding an abstract background to your illustration.
With the finished sketch, try to figure out which can be the best chromatic choice , starting from the original colors of your subject. Experiment with impactful textures and patterns and add some pop colors!
When the illustration is finished, go back to childhood and decline your visual on a hypothetical packaging of an action figure and on a sticker.
We look forward to seeing your project and interacting with you again through the forum. We will try to give you our opinion, but please be patient if it will take a while before we can do it. Remember to check out other people's projects as well - encourage colleagues by commenting on their work and interact with the community. Thanks again for choosing this course and good luck with all your projects!”
