Part I

Lucian Bernhard, birth name Emil Kahn, was born in 1883 t0 a jewish family in Germany. As a teenager, he visited many exhibitions of European Art Nouveau that showed inspiring colorful pieces of  studio art and graphic design posters. As a matter of fact, Lucian was so fascinated on the exhibition, that when he appeared at home, he had the derive to paint everything in sight in bright wildly colors. The walls, the furniture was covered in modern colors, basically making the whole house into a painting; although, the father was so mad that he kicking Lucian out of the house for good. He was a graphic designer, type designer, and interior designer from Berlin to New York. Lucian began as a poster designer, that let to the big breakout for his career; leading him to advertise for many companies. The Preister Match poster became the most popular advertisement because of its simplicity. There was nothing else like that poster; usually posters would be very wordy and have a lot of objects in it, however, Lucian only chose a few vibrant colors and one object to broadcast something that meant much more. Bernhard helped influence a genre of advertising called sachplakat, or object poster.

MIND MAP 

Mind Map

I enjoyed working with my group for the mind map because it helped me gather ideas that I would not have thought of without them. I chose Humans for the theme of the map because there is such a broad spectrum that comes along it and can lead to great/weird thumbnails.

  1. Homeless + Banana*
  2. Happy + Eyeballs*
  3. Girl + Carrot
  4. Cigarette + Fingers*
  5. Tall + Teeth*
  6. Volks Wagon + boy
  7. Smile + Vegetables
  8. Hairy + People*
  9. Hands + Indians
  10. Cowboy + Hedge Hog
  11. Fruit + Glasses*
  12. Ape + Overalls
  13. Dog + Vampire
  14. Cow + Ghost
  15. Spy + Pig*
  16. Beard + Gun
  17. Straw Hat + Ruler
  18. FBI + Nose
  19. Toxic + Actor
  20. Toe + Arrow*
  21. Hammer + Mouth
  22. House + Body
  23. Hero + Leash*
  24. Sonic + Skater
  25. Turkey + Car

Homeless + Banana: I thought would be funny together so I had no choice to combine the two.
Happy + Eyeballs: Thought it would be cool to see eyeballs smiling; it shows one’s expression through eyes.
Cigarette + Fingers: I figured the two could have a lot of meaning and the words go well together since hands do hold cigarettes. But drew the two with a twist.
Tall + Teeth: Never seen tall teeth before so why not draw them.
Hairy + People: I regret making a thumbnail for this word; it sounded and looked a lot better in my head. But it reminded me of cartoon characters.
Fruit + Glasses: Thought this word montage was a silly one. Would be cool to have some fruit glasses.
Spy + Pig: Is one of my favorite pieces; I enjoyed drawing thumbnails for this one.
Toe + Arrow: Another one of my favorites, making the toe into an arrow.
Hero + Leash: With this word, I thought of different ways a “hero” can mean.
Turkey + Car: Not my favorite thumbnails as I would suspect it to be, but it helped my learn how important it is to draw something out because one thing could look great in your head but terrible on paper.

It did not start until two years ago that I started to fulfill an interest in graphic design. I was an artist all my life, starting when I was a baby, being able to draw in the lines with both hands; then later in the years chose to be a lefty. The way I draw is very unique because I believe that everything should have a story, hence why I always put hidden messages in my drawings. With this being said, it caught peoples attention in my high school; students wanted me to draw for them! So I would make a drawing that resembled the specific individual and draw their name inside the piece secretly to make the drawing more personal. It was basically like a horoscope. This is what started my career of art. As college started and I still thinking about a major to get into, my father recommended me to do graphic design. First I did not want to at all since I was forced to go to computer camp when I was young and terribly disliked it; thought to myself that I would never work with computers ever again! But changed my mind once I further researched what graphic design is all about. Hence, why I am here in this class.

Brand and Identity Design
This design concept is really cool, it gives you the freedom to create anything you want; it brings out the personality of the artist, showing what kind of work they are able to do with little rules. Brand and identity design is so important because you are making a logo become more than just a logo, it represents the whole company on which it stands on, or a restaurant, etc.



Now the first logo, everyone know about, but when you think of coffee, you think of starbucks or dunkin donuts. The second logo is my fathers new start up company, and it took them a while to figure out how they want to brand themselves since this logo is going to represent them for the rest of their careers. They finally perfected it and believe that this logo represents their company and is people friendly, thus you see the person as the dot of the last “i”.

Package Design 
Package design is similar to brand and identity design but I believe is further detailed. Such as a coca-cola bottle. the coke title is the brand logo and the surrounding art is the package design.

It is so fascinating being able to make a 3D design. I have always known that if I were to get into the field of graphic design, I would do package design because my mother use to work for Damen World Wide, which is where they make the package designing logos for foods at grocery stores such as Stop and Shop and Winn Dixie. I have met with the designers and they expressed how fun their job is, just drawing all day, making logos and designing packages for foods.
