1st February 2011: Introduction to project, on this first day of this project I met the new teacher and was also given a brief outline of the project which helped me understand what was expected of me over the following weeks. One of the things that I found out was that this new project would be linked with my “Steampunk” project AD108, I will be using my flat drawings of my designs and using illustrator to develop them by doing so I will gain an understanding of the project and also have skills in CAAD witch is a skill that many companies look for in there employees.
After finding out what the project entailed we were able to go on the software illustrator CS3 and look through some of the tools that we would be using. The most important tool that I will learn how to use is the pen tool by gaining skills with this it will be easier for me to use the program as this is seen as one of the difficult parts of this project, and I have been told practice makes perfect. As well at learning about the pen tool I was also shown some of the other tools that could be found within the program such as the colour and line thickness etc., I was also shown how to open up the program what size and options to choose (basically how to set up my work space).
