YT Page C TS #1

 

Some Idea's of colour and font style for a Youtube background that I will start working on. The First pic are from ration vouchers which has some great off white with black and red text which stands out quite a bit. On that same picture some other images, black and white, off white with a splash of orange works quite well. Also the second image with is some intro images from the TV series Chuck, which work on a similar basis.

this is collate

Was trying to find grafikcache.com, but looks like there website is down or something wrong with the domain. A quick google came up with this site thisiscollate.com, which stream of graphic art. A good source of ideas and inspiration. Artists submit there designs which then get streamed, although it's not clear who the artist is, or maybe that info is hidden somewhere I haven't clicked on yet.

I like this above image because of the colours and simple artwork/photo's.

I even found a t-shirt on this site. This one is simple and have some great line work.

Tangrams Excercise

Currently I'm studying Graphic Design, and recently we were given the Tangram excercise. I'm shore I've done something like this back in School many years ago. Basically all you have to do is rearrange the shapes and make shore they don't overlap. There are stacks of combination's to be made. I came up with two, something that looked like a Computer character, with ear's and a tie, and below, which is more of an abstract form. When the other one comes back I'm shore to post it up.

Work to Melbourne CBD

Photo’s from walking from Work to Melbourne CBD. Taken with my iphone 4 and edited on my iphone with the camera+ app. Images were then put together in photoshop.

T Shirt Hunting

You can find a couple of Mossimo T-Shirts here and one by Syke Illustrated Melbourne (Bottom Left on the bottom Pic). All images shot with my iphone 4 and put together with the Diptic app. My iphone is proving a great way to document things I come across.

Using a Mic With The Iphone 4

After reading this article How To Turn Your iPod Touch Into a Mobile Interview Kit [Macworld 2011] on Cult of Mac looks like you can easily hook up a mic that's not designed to use with the iphone or ipod touch.

I'm really enjoying my iphone 4 as a way to create on a portable basis. The camera is a fairly good quality and it has numerous apps to adjust and change images and video.

The only problem with the article and the original post is that a couple of links are not directing me to the  product and also you could also use a different type of Mic.

My setup would contain
1. iPhone 1/8 inch microphone and headphone adapter - 3.5mm 4 conductor TRRS Male to 3.5mm TRS Jacks
I would use this to connect my 3.5mm male to 3-pin XLR Microphone cable, which from there I would connect my Rode M3. I've got a couple of other mic's that have a 3.5mm male jac so this would be more suitable to myself.

2. NAJA King Form
This Naja King Form is a great suggestion as it can move into plenty of positions and the form would allow me to fit it with a case on my iphone (like a case that has a battery for extra power).

Airplane -> Bomb -> Rainbow

Above image found in the below video clip 'Hey You' by The Rock Steady Crew, plenty of 80's Hip Hop action (break dancing). The image is possibly gives me an idea for a T-Shirt or a work of art.

Back in 2002 (I think)

I found this picture while sorting a box of stuff at Mum and Dads today. Don't know what I was thinking at the time, I think was made back in 2002.

FCUK T

Sighted at the Carlton FCUK around late November 2010. This one caught my attention with the multiple linear images in a grid like formation.

Headless

T shirt sighted around end of November 2010. what caught my attention with this one is the deleted face.

Mossimo T-shirt design

The face on this T reminds me of stencils by Melbourne street artist Rone http://streetsofmelbourne.blogspot.com/search/label/Rone
