I didn't get much more work done yesterday after finishing my Posada poster, except for a little work on the art nouveau one. I found a Mucha girl that I liked, which I then turned into a skeleton. Lovely. So the main bulk of that illustration is done (if I keep it line work, which I could), I just need to put in a very simple background (in case I want to color it). Then I need to hand-draw the title "Diseno Mexico" and add in the info text at the bottom.
I just suddenly had the revelation that it's a poster about hand-done type anddddd I wasn't planning on hand-doing the info text at the bottom. Hmm. I think it makes sense that just the headlines/larger copy would be hand-done, but larger chunks of text could be type-set. At least it makes sense to me, probably because it makes it easier for me. Will have to pick a font, though; I'm not sure my Century 725 Bold Condensed will apply here.
I hope to have a very-nearly finished art nouveau poster, and a rough draft of the Estridentista/Constructivist/TGP poster for Thursday morning. That means a lot of work needs to get done in the three hours that I'm at school today. I figure I can probably make my PDF presentation tonight at home, but I want to tile-print the posters I have in final stages (intro, Posada, art nouveau) and the cropping and taping together takes time.
Today is my last day at my internship; I am sad. Even though it took time out of my schedule, I've had fun working on design that turned into real-life items! And my boss generally seemed very happy with my work. Hopefully my first job will go as well as this internship.
