V&A

To help with our class project designing advertisement for young people ,On Friday we went to the V&A museum in London.
The trip was very helpful in giving us a greater understanding of the museum and what it has to offer for young people.
The museum had a great deal of interesting art in it and offered world art such as British art , Korean art Asian art and even Italian art.
My favorite piece of the museum was a huge pillar which was so big that the building was build around the pillar. This showed me the amount of effort the museum has to go through to create there museum

File Formats

There are a number of bitmap file formats used for savin files: TIFF for print images, JPEG for photographic Web images and GIF for flat colour Web images. Each format has its own special strengths that suit it for its particular role, but none is perfect.








PSD

PSD is Photoshop's own personal file format. PSD supports all available image modes such as Bitmap, Grayscale, Duotone, Indexed Color, RGB, CMYK, Lab, and Multichannel.

The PSD format is extremely useful as it can support duotones, clipping paths and channels. PSD also offers a unique feature, it supports layers while every other format must be flattened on export. Any program that supports PSDs directly can then use this layer information. Saving as layered images is quite handy as it allows to edit different parts of an image at a later date far easier.

JPEG

A JPEG is an image file and is a popular way to compress and store images for use on a web site page. JPEG is currently the most popular form of image compression used on the World Wide Web. The term JPEG is short for Joint Photographic Experts Group, created in 1986, it took until 1994 before they had issued and were granted an image standard.

Ai

Ai is a file format developed by Adobe to save single page vector based drawings in Adobe Illustrator .

Tiff

Tiff is a file format that is for images destined for print the fundamental requirement is good colour support. It is by providing this that the TIFF format, with its support for RGB, Lab and especially CMYK colour models, established itself.

Gif

The GIF format is one of the most popular formats on the Internet. Not only is the format excellent at compressing areas of images with large areas of the same color, but it is also the only option for putting animation online .

Typetastic

Today i created my own 3d letter M that i made from paper.
To make the letter i firstly printed off the letter M from my computer and traced it onto plain paper making two copies.
I then added tabs to the letter so i could later assemble it.
once the letters where cut out i stuck double sided tape to each of the tabs and cut off the excess tape.
I finally got a long thin piece of paper i had cut out and began to assemble my letter making sure all the tabs where inside of the 3d shape.

BlueTack Font

Today i I have created my own font using blue tack.
I made it by simply getting blue tack and rolling it into a line and creating the alphabet.
i think this has work well and i am happy with my font.
