The Second Line
Isaac's Photos
My Inspiration
Each design came from photos that I took on my phone. These photos were usually taken on trips, and they capture moments that I found interesting and beautiful. Some locations include Los Angeles, Chicago, and Texas Gulf Coast.
The Designs
My Process
In my first line of clothing, I heavily focused on architecture, but on this line, I wanted to direct my attention towards snapshots of life. Additionally, I chose to engage in the more creative aspect of my designs by drawing them by hand to promote a sketchy, doodle-like look.
The Figures
"Stickmen"
Many figures can be found in some of the designs. These were created to simplify the humans found within my photos. These figures also promoted the doodle-like aspect of the designs. My main source of inspiration derived from Keith Haring.
Animations
Promotion
On my Instagram page, I chose to advertise this line by making animations. While I am a novice at animation, I felt an inclination towards it as they coincided with the direction of the designs.
The First Line
Adam's Photos
My Inspiration
All the designs derive from Adam Rangel's photography. Each photo draws attention to the diverse architecture and beauty found in Chicago, Illinois.
Abstraction
I - V
These designs follow a more diverse theme that includes different aspects such as negative space and surrealism. This line of designs is not confined to a certain style, so each one illustrates a different creative perspective on a photo.
Rippled
I - III
These designs all include a ripple effect that distorts the photo in order to create a wavelike pattern. This pattern assists in overlaying the photo onto backgrounds which allows for different point of views on each design. The ripple effect can also be applied to the background in order to create surreal look.
Framed
I - III
These designs capture the photos in their more natural form bounded by a border. This approach takes after the way we primarily see images whether it is on a screen or in a frame. The designs are then enhanced using different methods such as a noise effect.
