Study Task 5: Vector Illustration

Promotional















Matthew Griffin

Fantastic use of starkly contrasting pockets of dense detailing and broad shape. The primary illustration appears to be vector based with subtle texturing added afterwards.

Amy Beth Christenson [?]

This series of propaganda posters were created to promote the upcoming Star Wars: Rebels show. They aim to show the Galactic Empire as a heroic force by using the now nostalgic aesthetic of American WW2 posters. The clean vector imagery was used to develop initial thumbnail designs.

Karl Dukai

Though Russian constructionists obviously predate vector tools, their aesthetic is generally made from mathematically precise shapes and line.

David Sossella

Near seamlessly blended use of vector to create the impression of depth and tone.

Saul Bass

Again, this piece pre-dates vector, but the core aesthetic is shape and line based, with two colours on stock.

Character Design 

Dyna Moe


Harkening to a now nostalgic and fashionable era of design, minimal use of tone creates the impression of layered shapes.

HR-FM

Spectacularly dense vector imagery, making use of great anarchic colouration.

 

















javieracalde

Borderline sterile aesthetic, dirt and minimal texturing has been added in photoshop.

Brandon Ragnar

Harmonious colour balance, and impression of depth.

  
Orlando Arocena


Subtle use of gradients to create the illusion of material properties.


Packaging

Timba Smits

Banking on nostalgic packaging design by deciding the dense text-based information with simple quadrangles.
