book cover

                                                                 MY BOOK COVER
this week our assignment was to design a book cover for a book we read and since Frankenstein was the last book i read. i chose to recreate according to how i felt it should look after reading the book and watching the movie. researching past book covers they werent dark and misterious enough for me so therefore i chose to make mine darker, more misterious and eye catchy. i wanted a bark, lost and confused discolorated man. because that how i felt the monster was. in the book victor frankenstein is honted by his creation "the monster" he is forced to create a wife for him and if not the monster "will be with him on his wedding night" which means he will kill victors lover and sister elizabeth. this is the image i pictured of the monster coming to victors house the night of his wedding to kill his wife, because he failed to keep his promise.
                                                 
this book to me says nothing about victor as a creator it makes you see him more as a explorer and that is not him at all. so i believeit is sending the wrong message to the reader and that shouldnt be the case. even though the story is most about victor its is also anout robert walton and the monster. but then again since it starts off with Walton it also could be a picture of him becausr he is the explorer and how he wants to be the first to discover the north pole. but if you read the book you  would know that the man on this book cover is not robert.

animals

in computer apps we were assigned to create two animals of our choice. the animals i chose to create have mixes of lizards, birds, bats, cats, cheetah and dragons.

the one in the top left corner is a mix of a green bird and lizard head. i think it took me the longest to make this because i picture what i wanted i couldnt see what animals i could put together to make it seem real. i knew that i wanted a bird just had a rough time putting one together.

the one on the bottom is a cheetah head on a cats body wit bat wings and a dragon tail. this one i call evil puss. creating this was not that hard because i knew i wanted to do a cat and make it exotic and different. choosing animal around the came color mad it a lot easier. yes i had to adjust the color a little bend and blur them as well. out of the two i like this better i believe it may be more detailed and it looks like it could be real. but if i could change anything i thing i would tone the color of the head to make it a little more tan or grey.
