Childrens Travels #2

Childrens Travels #1

Behind the Magazine

My magazine is a magazine targeted toward children who want to go to fun, exciting, and adventurous places. I want it to be targeted toward children who want to travel. They can then show their parents where they want to go.
Name:
Children's Travels
I think this works because it would be the children who are picking where they travel. It has a ring to it that light and just for kids.
The masthead will be medium sized most likely in a san-serif font because I want it to look modern, something that kids will want to be a part of. I have a few font ideas on my moodbaord.
The images I'll have on my cover will be from the different places kids should go and images of some kids actually at these places.
I think I'll use sell lines that are appealing to children. I'll probably use things from these sights. I might also do like a top 10 places to go as a kid.

Magazine MoodBoard

My idea is to do a travel magazine for kids so I have a bunch of places that kids should visit. They range from educational to fun. I have a few typefaces on the top to have that playful sophisticated look.

Church



I decided to go with the church because I have used sketchup before but I realized it has been awhile since I used it and I couldn't remember everything.

Seed Packets


This is my final project. My idea was to have plants that recycle different items. They recycle plastic, paper, and lightbulbs. I found this project to be very helpful in developing my skills in illustrator. I learned a lot about the mesh and gradients tools and found it to be easier to use by then end of this project. My overall color scheme could have been changed to make them connect. There seems to be too many colors going on with the background and the name.

This one was difficult because I had to get the mesh tool just right so the flower wouldn't blend in with the shape in the middle. I wanted to make it an interesting composition but I think the colors are too much and I should have gone with a lighter color.



I saw that this seedpacket didn't have enougn depth on it and I wanted to add more flowers to fill the piece.





For this first design I tried using the gradient tool but it made my flower look flat. I redid it to make it more 3D. I also had feedback to change the typeface because I had too many typefaces on one packet.
