The document summarizes the process of creating a project to represent the favorite music artist of the author's father, Fat Boy Slim. The author interviewed their father, researched Fat Boy Slim images, created draft drawings, scanned elements, experimented with layering and effects in Photoshop, and ultimately used Illustrator's live color trace feature to create a final outcome that best represented the artist.

2. THE IDEA
I interviewed my dad asking him who his favorite music artist was and what
to him reminds him of this particular artist. He said that Fat boy slim
was his favorite and it is his yellow smiley face that is on his
albums, tour posters and other merchandise of his that reminds my dad
of him.
Taking this in to account I decided to research this and collect a couple of
images together I could use for my project.
This is my draft drawing of how I wanted my outcome to look like.

3. ORIGINAL DRAWING
This is the drawing I did to scan in, because I originally thought that I want
to do it on Illustrator using the technique we had learnt a couple of
weeks before.

4. AFTER THOUGHT
I thought that I could use the images and text I had found on the internet to
create this project so I cut off the bits that I wanted and created this to
scan in.

5. SCANNED
After I had scanned both in I want to mess around on photoshop, layering
them both together and using different effects to create different
outcomes.
This is my edit before any effects have been used.
I liked how this
came out and at
this point felt
confident that
my outcome
was going to be
good.

6. PHOTOSHOP EDITS
Cut out
I liked this effect
but think that I
could do a
better outcome,
this isn't what I
will be using.

7. PHOTOSHOP EDITS
Diffused Glow
This effect hasn’t
worked as well
as I thought it
would, the glow
is good but the
black
background I
really don’t like.

8. PHOTOSHOP EDITS
Neon Glow
I think that this is a
terrible attempt.

9. PHOTOSHOP EDITS
Note Paper
I liked this effect
but if it was in
black instead it
would have
been better. I
don’t think this
is a good
enough
outcome for my
final so I am not
going to edit
this one
anymore.

10. PHOTOSHOP EDITS
Palette Knife
I like this one as I
think it
represents my
artist and the
graphics used
are a good
demonstration
of what I can
do. I will
considered this
for my final
outcome.

11. PHOTOSHOP EDITS
Poster Edges
This is another
good example,
like the one
before I will be
considering
this for my final
outcome.

12. ILLUSTRATOR
After using Photoshop and my two drawings I wasn’t completely satisfied
with my outcomes, I believe I could of done better. So using my drawing
and the technique using live color trace I made this.
I really think that
this is a good
outcome and
represents my
artist very well.

13. FINAL OUTCOME
I decided to use my illustrator outcome for my final as it shows my new
skills I have learnt and it also is a better outcome to my Photoshop
ones.
