UNIT 35 TASK 2 P5

This is my first van image. It looks very plain with only a contact number on it and not much else, it isn't eye catching with only a name and a small logo. 

I then changed it to make it more eye catching and overall a better look for the company. I changed the colour, font and logo on the van and added in a slogan too. 

This is my original band logo, which I made at first. It's very plain and boring with not much to catch the eye and it doesn't suit the genre of the music that Fall Out Boy produce, its not bright bold colours which would represent the band its more light colours which would've been better. I do like the fire though.

This is what I changed about it, I used a face from the nirvana logo but changed the colours and shading using illustrator and then made it purple, adding in the bold font for the band name making it stand out more. This logo suits the band a lot more in the sense it came from a rock band before so therefore making the correct changes it allows it to look more better. 

UNIT 35, TASK 2, P2

           A local band logo would be created by illustrator because I can easily use different tools to create something unique and it's simple to use. There are various tools that allow me to change the colour and different fonts. Cartoons which you can draw can be incorporated into the logo to make it more interesting and as decorative as you want it to be. There is another thing you could use and that is Photoshop which can change images to make them less alike to the original therefore copyright is not involved as it's not the original image. That is what I used for the band picture. To make the van I used illustrator, I used this for the same reasons that I used for the local band logo, all of those features are useful in making the van design. 

For the flyer I used publisher as it allowed me to use various different images to make the flyer look decorative, unique and eye-catching. You can import the pictures to make the flyer look more interesting and also you can crop pictures and make them smaller so that they can fit onto  your flyer. A lot of detail can be added into making it using the icons at the side.

A bitmap graphic is composed of many tiny parts which are often many different colours, it also allows you to edit each individual pixel and since the computer has to store information about every single pixel in the image the file size of a bitmap graphic is often quite large. Using a bitmap graphic would be good for the flyers as you can use them to scan the images many times and still get the same result. 

Vector graphic are created in graphics packages and consist of shapes called objects. It is possible to edit each object separately, for example you can the the shape, colour, size and position. Even if an object in a vector is quite large, it doesn't need a lot of computer memory therefore making the file size often very small. If you re-size a vector graphic it doesn't lose quality.

The vector would probably be the most appropriate file to use when saving all of the work and using the tools as, it doesn't lose quality and can save incredibly large files using barely any file size and memory.
