Final Ideas


Stamp 1: Neymar
Initial idea
 
 
 
My initial idea for my first stamp was to get am image of Neymar and draw round him with a black line, so in other words draw the image and then get rid of the actual picture and then add the colour to my drawing on Neymar. Then in the background, behind Neymar am going to put an image of the Olympic rings. Then I am going to put an image of a Brazilian frog in the background as well.
Rational (why have you chosen this idea?)
I choose this idea as everyone who is from Brazil or knows about Brazil is going to know who Neymar is as he is a very young but very talented player who plays for one of the best football teams in the world (FC Barcelona). I am also putting the Olympic rings in the background as everyone is Brazil is getting ready for the Rio 2014 Olympics.
How does the idea relate to your investigations/development work?
My idea relate to my investigations as I have been looking into Brazilian animals and the idea of a frog in the background is showing that I have been looking into putting animals into my first stamp.
What effects do you want to incorporate into the stamp? – justify your decisions
I want this stamp to have Neymar stand out on it as he is going to be in the centre of the stamp and he is going to be the the biggest image on the stamp so he will stand out, and I may even make the other images around him dimmer coloured so Neymar stands out the most.
Resources that you will need for the stamp (e.g. images, scans, information)
I will need to get some sketches of the Olympic rings and scan them into the computer and then I will be able to draw round them on the internet when it comes to my mock exam. Also I need to get an image of Neymar off of the internet so I will also be able to draw round him and add the colours to him for this stamp.



 
Stamp 2:The Christ Redeemer.
Initial idea
 
 
 
My initial idea for this stamp is to get the Christ redeemer and draw the outline of it and then colour the top half of him in to make it look like he is wearing the Brazilian football flag then behind him make it look like there is sun rays coming from behind him.
Rational (why have you chosen this idea?)
I have chosen this idea because wear the Rio 2016 Olympics are happening the Christ redeemer is the make attraction of the place apart from the Olympics themselves, so everyone who is going to Brazil will probably be going up to see these main attraction.
How does the idea relate to your investigations/development work?
My idea relates to my work because I have been looking at doing the Christ redeemer for a while and I have finally found a good I idea to put the statue in.
What effects do you want to incorporate into the stamp? – justify your decisions
I want to add a couple of effects such as the fade tool in illustrator, to make the things behind the Christ redeemer not stand out as much as the statue itself.
Resources that you will need for the stamp (e.g. images, scans, information)
I will need to get a picture of the Christ redeemer off of the internet in order to be able to draw around the statue. I will also need a picture of the home Brazilian football kit so I can draw one onto the Christ redeemer.

Stamp 3: Pele.
Initial idea
 
 
 
For this stamp my idea is to get a picture of Pele when he was in mid-air doing the famous overhead kick that he scored for Brazil. Then I will be creating an outline of him and then I will be getting the Brazilian flag and drawing that inside the outline of Pele.
Rational (why have you chosen this idea?)
I have chosen this idea as everyone around the world who likes football like me will know about Pele and him famous overhead kick goal that he scored, and then I will have a Brazilian flag in the outline of him so if people don’t know who he is they will notice he is from Brazil.
How does the idea relate to your investigations/development work?
I have been looking into the history of Brazilian football and I have noticed that Pele stands out the most so everyone who knows about football knows about Pele.
What effects do you want to incorporate into the stamp? – justify your decisions
I want to use the outline effect on this stamp so I can draw an outline of Pele in the middle of this stamp, so I will be able to draw a Brazilian flag in the middle of him.
Resources that you will need for the stamp (e.g. images, scans, information)
I will need a picture of Pele doing the famous overhead kick to draw round for the outline and then I will need a picture of the Brazilian flag to go into the middle of the Pele outline.

lens flairs.

During todays lesson we have been looking at lens flairs, we have been looking at how effective they can be if we was to put them onto our final stamps. Lens flairs could be good in our final ideas as we can make them look like a sun with a sun ray coming off of it. The colour of the flair depends on the colour of the background.
