BEAR PHOTOSHOOT

Today I photographed my Balloon Bear. These photos will be used to create new birthday cards.






BALLOON BEAR

Following the not so good result of this project, I've decided to use the sewed bear idea. I've used new material that gives the bear a more balloon look.

BIRTHDAY CARDS

These were the cards I made after having feedback. 







I still want to work on these and find a way to print them on different types of paper, to give them even more texture.

BIRTHDAY CARDS




These were the first cards I made after creating my new balloon bear. 
Not enough texture in their backgrounds and inappropriate font was the feedback given to me.

NEW MEDIUM

SOFT PASTEL

I have finally found something that makes my bear look like a balloon!

COMPUTER COLOURING

Experimenting with photoshop.





Using the scanner for the image.


Adding 3D bear to the card.


I don't think these cards worked, there's no balloon feeling to these bears.

These are drawings of ideas for birthday cards. They will be coloured on the computer.

This is a version of my balloon bear sewed by me.

THIRD SESSION

In this session with Rachel we made stencils to create a short story about a character in the fridge.


This was my story. 


We also created stencils of our own characters.



And made playing cards with these.
