Heroes of Science

Ok so this is what I have so far for the Heroes of Science brief. Sensing that this could take up a large portion of my time purely developing a visual style/approach for the deliverables, not to a lack of context research but skills on my behalf.


Grace Hopper - World renown as the mother of computing and advanced program, here she sits immortalised in one of the clunky 1950s DAR computers.

Charles Darwin - Self explanatory really, but here he is with many of the creatures he unified with his theory of evolution.

Oswald Avery - Essentially discovered the structure of DNA but actually discovered that DNA is composed of a variety of elements, not just proteins. He also contributed to a multitude of biological related medicines and studies.

Niels Bohr - Discovered the truth behind atomic structure and laid down the foundations for the study of quantum theory.







Finally, Nikola Tesla the godfather of all things electric. The final image is the sort of direction I want to take all the images, but this one alone took long enough to get to grip with in terms of its production so I would of rather started another brief that could be started and finished in a matter of weeks. This is only because I know how I work and I know what it takes to through me off getting a brief finished. Dwelling unnecessarily on a subject tends to get me stuck in a rut, as well as looking around to see that everyone else is producing work at a much quicker rate, as opposed to just producing pretty pictures I wanted to see a project with some weight behind it finish. So I will be picking this brief up again later on.
















 Getting used to a Wacom tablet is rather baffling and is taking up a large portion of my time just figuring out how to use it! I did however sketch up some rough ideas for each of my 5 heroes as to develop when I get my own tablet (hoping Friday) so I can see the full potential of my new hardware, as I see it becoming a fundamental aspect to my work.
