A tour of the captol was a great source of insperation, specifically the Art Deco inspiration in all of these fields influenced the building as a whole, not just the art, but the architecture and industrial design elements. I wanted to figure out how to incorporate these into my own design through the use of color instead of exceedingly complicated decorative elements. <img width="2388" height="1668" width_o="2388" height_o="1668" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fd59a52c14513ea57b1f85952d3d862aa6a53d695ec736b4e411e2e43ab1beec/Lamps-02.jpg" data-mid="117926555" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fd59a52c14513ea57b1f85952d3d862aa6a53d695ec736b4e411e2e43ab1beec/Lamps-02.jpg" /> <img width="3251" height="4555" width_o="3251" height_o="4555" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/527947b4117199b602b2d9dd3d391af4b9912706febb2a9e45bdfd4e7ba0cc3a/Posters-In-Progress.png" data-mid="117926759" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/527947b4117199b602b2d9dd3d391af4b9912706febb2a9e45bdfd4e7ba0cc3a/Posters-In-Progress.png" /> My idea behind this series was to show people leading themselves into the capitol in three stages, one outside the capitol, seeing it raise above their heads, the next in the entrance hall where you can see the vaulted chamber above, and finally into the west wing of the capitol where the legislature is at where the most people have grouped. This in essence is meant to show how each persons vote directly leads somewhere very physical and every one of the viewers has an impact. <img width="4000" height="3000" width_o="4000" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cfff94f182faa61b9bfbf2f2cc831fe3589247acd0051bb4838b85c11e7c4321/Postcard-Mockup-01.jpg" data-mid="117926908" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cfff94f182faa61b9bfbf2f2cc831fe3589247acd0051bb4838b85c11e7c4321/Postcard-Mockup-01.jpg" /> <img width="4000" height="3000" width_o="4000" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e0d468516014d388a5547ce553da6fbb77a6f2ed2259b26b4440b0198bed3412/Postcard-Mockup-02.jpg" data-mid="117926915" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e0d468516014d388a5547ce553da6fbb77a6f2ed2259b26b4440b0198bed3412/Postcard-Mockup-02.jpg" /> <img width="4000" height="3000" width_o="4000" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2bbb527532bdf6c2dc4d4cef118e4424b8c9d906cd829ce33dbc3f96c033907c/Postcard-Mockup-03.jpg" data-mid="117926929" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2bbb527532bdf6c2dc4d4cef118e4424b8c9d906cd829ce33dbc3f96c033907c/Postcard-Mockup-03.jpg" /> This all culminated in the creation of my poster series leaning on my sketches for composition while adding a flat coloring scheme, in an attempt to garner images of a printed poster, valuing simplicity to push the message. You can also start to see influences of mid-century modern travel posters in the posters, trying make a headline as if this was an exotic location. The type is meant to juxtapose the flat images and add a printed texture that still reinforces the general theme. https://lgiron.cargo.site/056 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 13:54:02 +0000 lgiron https://lgiron.cargo.site/056 byron anway portfolio website / 2020-21 Through the UCARE program I worked with professor Byron Anway on updating the look of his portfolio website. He wanted to stray away from the traditional form factors of template based website in order to move to a more customizable website costomizable to his needs. Above is an interactive mockup of the website from Adobe XD that allows viewers to experience the page as if it were live. The overal theme of the site is having a clean white space to display his paintings, prints, and other work. https://lgiron.cargo.site/109 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 13:35:53 +0000 lgiron https://lgiron.cargo.site/109 <img width="1000" height="1500" width_o="1000" height_o="1500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7acb45e86e69088c3a62050b93ca6fb64b18f6b65517faa2924fb00b69278071/giron-noah-project7-02.jpg" data-mid="117924537" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7acb45e86e69088c3a62050b93ca6fb64b18f6b65517faa2924fb00b69278071/giron-noah-project7-02.jpg" /> north facing window. digital / 2020 https://lgiron.cargo.site/023 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 13:35:52 +0000 lgiron https://lgiron.cargo.site/023 <img width="924" height="1500" width_o="924" height_o="1500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fc4e11a28e378dba1767aaeaea546f11b1e6e23800553efa5ae2bb31b43f77e6/giron-noah-project6-04.jpg" data-mid="117924468" border="0" data-scale="29" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/924/i/fc4e11a28e378dba1767aaeaea546f11b1e6e23800553efa5ae2bb31b43f77e6/giron-noah-project6-04.jpg" />interior . digital / 2020 https://lgiron.cargo.site/018 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 03:35:56 +0000 lgiron https://lgiron.cargo.site/018 <img width="2268" height="4032" width_o="2268" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cdee0bbafc77ebb4308364761e6b6ecbef22fc0cfdcce0bc68402d9b82f7db24/20210901_203834.jpg" data-mid="117890956" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cdee0bbafc77ebb4308364761e6b6ecbef22fc0cfdcce0bc68402d9b82f7db24/20210901_203834.jpg" />i’m not your project . 35mm film / 2021 https://lgiron.cargo.site/096 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 03:33:59 +0000 lgiron https://lgiron.cargo.site/096 <img width="2267" height="3091" width_o="2267" height_o="3091" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2bdc9daae557eb5d0ef8aa835b70dd1993c3050a50e0615e503f329823da5c56/20210901_204038.jpg" data-mid="117890909" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2bdc9daae557eb5d0ef8aa835b70dd1993c3050a50e0615e503f329823da5c56/20210901_204038.jpg" />bound . medium format 120 / 2021 https://lgiron.cargo.site/055 Thu, 26 Aug 2021 21:14:27 +0000 lgiron https://lgiron.cargo.site/055 <img width="2100" height="2100" width_o="2100" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f30869758cf3802f39ab063f5da80e15063e56270048fa62db8d2adc65cc79c0/Portfolio-Layout10.png" data-mid="120333847" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f30869758cf3802f39ab063f5da80e15063e56270048fa62db8d2adc65cc79c0/Portfolio-Layout10.png" /> <img width="2100" height="2100" width_o="2100" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2993f792d116b16b13906bf65d3cba9c2a693f7ceea66c71dc3eb84113e76c1c/Portfolio-Layout11.png" data-mid="120333844" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2993f792d116b16b13906bf65d3cba9c2a693f7ceea66c71dc3eb84113e76c1c/Portfolio-Layout11.png" /> <img width="1920" height="1080" width_o="1920" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f661ca21033ef95ee4fa459c2760082989e85b1e6f9265cae84c2f289f3a6aef/Walk-Cycle.gif" data-mid="117867924" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f661ca21033ef95ee4fa459c2760082989e85b1e6f9265cae84c2f289f3a6aef/Walk-Cycle.gif" /> <img width="2800" height="2100" width_o="2800" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ae2fa2560ad61b6d7e49a855ee5e8d6a41546067696375aa3b0164154925e005/Heart-Mockup.png" data-mid="120334392" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ae2fa2560ad61b6d7e49a855ee5e8d6a41546067696375aa3b0164154925e005/Heart-Mockup.png" /> I intended the piece to be a multimaterial experience that combines type, line, movement, and graphics into a visually successful represntation of the song. Due to the fast pace of the music I used line elements to guide the viewers eyes, highlighting the lyrics as they appeared on screen. The bulk of the typographic animation and linework was done in Adobe After Effects with the graphical elements predominantly created in Adobe Illustrator. Each element was a static vector drawing brought into After Effects to add movement to the piece. Additionally, I created a walk cycle for the character in the short in Adobe Photoshop, essentially piecing together individual frames. <img width="2800" height="2100" width_o="2800" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4b1daf59ec41714ce048062ea7efca36ddc82dabd3ec90c1b34df0dcabaf0202/Video-Player-Mockup.png" data-mid="120334342" border="0" data-scale="96" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4b1daf59ec41714ce048062ea7efca36ddc82dabd3ec90c1b34df0dcabaf0202/Video-Player-Mockup.png" /> <img width="2616" height="1888" width_o="2616" height_o="1888" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5b6355658c7b1312609c277b2fd98b958a25a0a5c0f27431d6c5657a0fac8fd0/20210901_160813.jpg" data-mid="117874387" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5b6355658c7b1312609c277b2fd98b958a25a0a5c0f27431d6c5657a0fac8fd0/20210901_160813.jpg" /> https://lgiron.cargo.site/061 Thu, 26 Aug 2021 21:14:28 +0000 lgiron https://lgiron.cargo.site/061 <img width="2100" height="2100" width_o="2100" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7e3d67c5b3abb602c5ee751c0ce5a63847796fea6618ed7fe60888b5d48d84fd/Portfolio-Layout14.png" data-mid="120337207" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7e3d67c5b3abb602c5ee751c0ce5a63847796fea6618ed7fe60888b5d48d84fd/Portfolio-Layout14.png" /> <img width="2100" height="2100" width_o="2100" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6c12e4c2d61179091e0cfb257ad90d41a55772304fb16993870a5e1aa9a3a477/Portfolio-Layout15.png" data-mid="120337209" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6c12e4c2d61179091e0cfb257ad90d41a55772304fb16993870a5e1aa9a3a477/Portfolio-Layout15.png" /> <img width="2100" height="2100" width_o="2100" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/87ee3e7ca929b31d7fe2b4d77b91fa27af6bf42a29d3a2d6093897534080ce78/Portfolio-Layout16.png" data-mid="120337210" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/87ee3e7ca929b31d7fe2b4d77b91fa27af6bf42a29d3a2d6093897534080ce78/Portfolio-Layout16.png" /> <img width="2100" height="2100" width_o="2100" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a268457a9a2d5f6ba8bdca7c3ec5203830fe0182c4a06981621d9b31d24f3010/Portfolio-Layout17.png" data-mid="120337211" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a268457a9a2d5f6ba8bdca7c3ec5203830fe0182c4a06981621d9b31d24f3010/Portfolio-Layout17.png" /> The font was defined by two main characteristics. First, Anway wanted to create a typeface that was blocky in nature with thick stems and blunt edges. This was informed by his experiences as a musician in a punk rock band, calling back to socialist propaganda. The second defining factor of the typeface was to have an elevated midline, thus increasing the x-height of the font. Having the midline raised above the midpoint is meant to inspire the sense of three point perspective, the idea that the bounding lines of a tall building would taper towards each other as you look up to the top. This was done instead of giving the letters themselves a taper due to the resulting emptiness towards the cap-height of the letter detracting from the aforementioned stocky design. <img width="4032" height="3024" width_o="4032" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6f4dede45bea610b1055665d0d1bd0dc779400abd30698964399e5ed18d3d14e/20210108_130610.jpg" data-mid="117776664" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6f4dede45bea610b1055665d0d1bd0dc779400abd30698964399e5ed18d3d14e/20210108_130610.jpg" /> <img width="4032" height="3024" width_o="4032" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7b6306def45d22646a94e014d82c84d4a833f7722522dee83127cf79dc131250/20210116_125639.jpg" data-mid="117776665" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7b6306def45d22646a94e014d82c84d4a833f7722522dee83127cf79dc131250/20210116_125639.jpg" /> <img width="4032" height="3024" width_o="4032" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/50d0bb8f4dbec491294921725886b8cec1382d04d449b927357840fb0cef4641/20210116_131753.jpg" data-mid="117776666" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/50d0bb8f4dbec491294921725886b8cec1382d04d449b927357840fb0cef4641/20210116_131753.jpg" /> The mid line of the typeface is raised at a 2:3 ratio, mirroring the ratio of the height by width, moving the weight of the letters further towards the top. The second big implementation is the asymmetrical internal serif cutout, what looks like stylized "P"'s are utilized in every letter. This was done for two reasons, for an accent that ties together the typeface continuing the theme of asymmetry as well as a substitute for the traditional serif. Due to the stocky almost brutalist nature of the typeface there wasn't room for a traditional serif, thus we adopted the internal cut out instead to take its place. <img width="4032" height="3024" width_o="4032" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/af07ee9581123e2a81b2ec6ed78c59a300992e0b056107b2352febedb1968396/20210120_160549.jpg" data-mid="117776667" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/af07ee9581123e2a81b2ec6ed78c59a300992e0b056107b2352febedb1968396/20210120_160549.jpg" /> <img width="4032" height="3024" width_o="4032" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cc7dd43620919d89d39ef4750cbb9e6d0c57637b575c30705509ec9c6fd6c92f/20210302_191802.jpg" data-mid="117776669" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cc7dd43620919d89d39ef4750cbb9e6d0c57637b575c30705509ec9c6fd6c92f/20210302_191802.jpg" /> https://lgiron.cargo.site/081 Thu, 26 Aug 2021 21:14:30 +0000 lgiron https://lgiron.cargo.site/081 <img width="1600" height="2400" width_o="1600" height_o="2400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/79cc235db550c21936af6197df3a766a9462ba796127b72958a82e375fb9013d/Digital-Photography-02---Resized.png" data-mid="117655294" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/79cc235db550c21936af6197df3a766a9462ba796127b72958a82e375fb9013d/Digital-Photography-02---Resized.png" /> south facing window . digital / 2020
