Branding By Eric Torres

Draft 1 For this drawing I chose the technique that utilized direction to evoke a feeling and help to show the significance of the drawing. I messed it up by making the trash can straight instead of leaning towards the right. The idea was to have the trashcan see through to emphasize how food is being wasted and the point of it is show how food is treated and wasted in society. Additionally I made the letters for "Stop Food Waste" out of food we eat in order to show ways how food can and is wasted and could be utilized for more meaningful causes. Draft 1 For this drawing I chose the technique that utilized a mark to show the significance of the drawing. I went with an apple which is commonly used in many food related topics and issues and an apple core which is associated a lot with trash. I also refrained from using words to allow the icon of the apple represent the meaning which I feel like was a really good way to do it. The colors are also meant to be representative of th...

  Slides 1-2 Slides 3-4 Slides 5-6 Why did you pick the topic? I picked this topic because income inequality is something me and my older brother think about a lot and have conversations about.

For the next 2 slides I decided to do a graphic with a bar graph, a motif around coins and tex...

Jose Bardasano Baos (Spanish, 1910-1979). Poisoned Water Causes More Casualties than the Shrapnel, 1937 This poster was for the Spanish Civil War in the 1930's. The Spanish government was at war with the fascist uprising. The glass of water was used to show how the Spanish government could supply clean water to people while the uprising couldn't. They also utilize a diagonal path for the central items that are focused on.  It gives it a sense of drama and connection and makes the piece more exciting through the directional placement of the glass of water. She also shows other posters that utilize this diagonal position to emphasize the difference in how it tells the story. If the glass was straight it wouldn't look as powerful and the people under would look like they were overreacting. If it is diagonal more it shows more about its significance not only to the poster but also to what it is trying to represent. Albert Exergian (Austrian, b. 1973). Iconic TV, 2009-2014 It is...
