Tutorial help


A tutorial I did using After Effects because it was using the particle system to create light streaks similar to how I want mine to look and I can adjust them anyway once I get the general idea so I can do a few mock ups

mood image

kind of the style I would like bit trendy and more women orientated. The light streaks will be in fluid full motion giving a kind of organic liquid style but looking like lights.

DULUX trainers

My design for DULUX trainers to be honest they look alright but ya gotta be pretty sad to wear them. I have used colors based on some of the paint pallettes from DULUX

adidas+dulux

Seen this and thought that they didnt look like your ordinary trainer colors but more like colors you would have in your house like the blue or green in the bathroom

















Like the way different materials have been used to create the emblem at first I thought it was paint













While messing with the idea of mixing brands I thought about the range of adidas called adicolor and I thought about making a Dulux range so i decided to design some in Illustrator. In some magazines they are sold like paint in there own color range

Dulux advert


although I dont relly like the advert I like the use of the color blocks which, I think are based on the color palletes they have, and linking there clothes to paint colors. It seems to be aimed at young couples as the actors and actresses all seem quite young and they seem to be all fashionable and the advert itself seems a bit more stylish than usual dulux dog ones.

Heineken advert

I like this advert it was done in the early 90's and like the way it plays with humour using the "Dulux Dog" but not to advertise paint but the beer was thinking of different ways this could be used mixing up the adverts brands.

An advert for sonys PSP going with the idea of mixing brands together in advert I thought about the fact that on this advert and others such as the sony Bravia one use paint but you would never usually think what paint it is. So I came up with the idea of changing the brand in this advert and making it an advert for DULUX

Rumble Fish



was watching the film Rumble Fish and thought of an idea building on contrast a technique used similar to Sin City. Using black and white then using vibrant color on important or relevant information, items of clothing or animals etc
so I came up with the idea using the paint as the only color in the scene the rest balck and white "dull" without color or something like "stand out with DULUX"

Sony Bravia

Rothko


One of the preeminent artists of his generation, Mark Rothko is closely identified with the New York School, a circle of painters that emerged during the 1940s as a new collective voice in American art. During a career that spanned five decades, he created a new and impassioned
form of abstract painting. Rothko's work is characterized by rigorous attention to formal elements such as color, shape, balance, depth, composition, and scale; yet, he refused to consider his paintings solely in these terms. He explained: It is a widely accepted notion among painters that it does not matter what one paints as long as it is well painted. This is the essence of academicism. There is no such thing as good painting about nothing.

like this what he says here about painting and I am trying to link it to the dulux ad
