Description & Statement of my Poster

Title: Poster - Save the World with Green

Statement

Based on the area I have chosen which is the plantation, I have created an awareness poster with the slogan "Save the World with Green". Green is the colour of nature and plants. So to make the world 'green', we have to plant more trees to prevent global warming. I also have shown the awareness bt showing how ugly our world is now. This can help to make the viewer to be more aware on our world and to assure that they live in a helathy lifestyle.

Illustration Step 5(FINALE) - Adding my symbol

Final touch up, adding my symbol in. . .



All right then, done! The end of step to step!! =)

Illustration Step 4: Inserting the Text

After done doing the background, pen tool the objects and others, now is the final touch up which is inserting the text. I have on all my stuff into visible and arranging them into like this.



Starting for background of the "2008", I make a rectangle with rectangle tool.



Typing the word "NOW". . .



By using Text tool, I have type in "2008'. I also have adjusted a little of its opacity from 100 to 75%.




After that, type some sentences. . .



And another one at the below. . .



I use brush tool and give a stroke behind the word "GREEN".



Ok then that's all for inserting text! =)

Illustration Step 3: Pen tool-ing on objects

In this steps, I want to illustrate my objects. I have scan my sketch and use it as my template. I just tracing my sketch by using pen tool as shown in the below.




Ok finish it by colouring with Live Paint Bucket and gradient tool.


Doing the next pen tool of another object.


Done the colouring. I have copy my small plant from my 2nd assignment and paste it in front.



I position the small plant on the 'hand' object. I have add the flare on the small plant.



OK then that's all for the pen tool!

Illustration Step 2: Making the Background

First of all, I want to divide my background into 4 parts. I use the rectangle shape and drag to my 3/4 of the paper size. One big rectangle and the other is the smaller one. Next, I go into Object >Path >Split into Grid to split my rectangle into half each.




Once I'm done splitting, I can start colour it with Live Paint Bucket and using gradient tool.





Ok I want to make cloud effects on the left side so I use the eclipse tool and make 3 of it. Then I use the gaussian blur tool to have the 'fluffy effect'.



I did same thing to right side but in a 'brighter' way. Using the same tool which is the gradient tool and the sun is from the 'radius' in gradient tool option. I have add the flare tool to have shine from the sun.



All right then, that's all in background steps!

Illustration Step 1: Illustrate "Divided Tree"

This tree is from my 2nd assignment so I just copy from there and paste it to here.



I want to make the 'darker side' of the tree. So I paste in front again in a new layer as I named in the layer as Bad Tree. I divided the tree with pen tool so that I can easily paint the half of the tree that I want. I have colour it with Live Paint Bucket.
