final boards

 These are the boards presenting my idea.

different butterflies

Image
 The way i achieved the multiple butterfly look as with a drawing of a butterfly and with that i changed the hue to get different colours.

final sketches

Image
 here are the final outcomes i came up with. i prefer outcome 2 because this one may interfere with any information that needs to go onto the bottle.

package design

Image
 for my design, I aim to make a bottle that people will want to keep and will be able to reuse. my main inspiration for this was a Gordon's gin bottle and how they have a design facing inwards on the bottle. The main bottle that I had looked into was the peach one which correlates with my project quite well due to the flavour of monster I  am focusing on. the first design I came up with was just a simple butterfly, in the end it felt too plain After revising my design i decided t try a simple background but with many coloured butterflies. here is some inspiration for it. Here is the first design I came up with. I decided that it would be a good idea if I added the background to be the same colour as the monster monarch can, then proceeded to do one half a butterfly and the other multiple different coloured butterflies. The second design I came up with is just all the butterflies all over the page. I prefer option 1, As it in cooperates a background colour and makes it more liv...

cinnabar

Image
 cinnabar was the main ingredient of the pigment vermillion, which was very toxic and deadly to humans as it has high contents of mercury and sulphur. Here is what the mineral looked like before it got ground down into a powder to produce vermillion. The main components of cinnabar was mercury and sulphur and when put together they create a highly toxic substance called mercury sufide. Here is a visual representation of mercury and sulphur one is a liquid and the other is a rock. when put together they create cinnabar 

the pigment vermillion

Image
 Its a colour family and pigment that was manly used antiquity and the 19th century, in the early years of it existing it was made from the powdered mineral cinnabar which has very high contents of mercury and sulphur (mercury sulfide) which is highly toxic to humans. this is what the pigment would look like when ground down into a powder. the first ever recorded use of the colour vermillion dates all the way back to 8000-7000 BC. sooner or later many places who had been using the colour vermillion in pigments for lipstick, cheek stain, painting the walls etc, had realised it was highly toxic and dangerous so places tried to find alternatives to using cinnabar. Things started to change in the 17th century surrounding the pigment and how they made it, This was introduced as the Dutch method and this was essentially mercury and melted sulphur were mashed together, this then created black mercury sufide. after that as done it was heated in a retort, creating vapours that presented the...

First ideas for colour story

Image
 For my first page/idea I am going to draw two people yelling at each-other, as I stated in another post anger is a mask for a lot of emotions.  This is where I am at with the first design, I struggled a lot to get the pose right but I eventually managed to get the expression correct, I had a friend who helped me with the poses at that time.

Audience

Image
 For my colour story, my main aim is to educate everyone that sometimes anger isn’t what it seems, for example it can be sadness, anger can be used as a mask in a few scenarios and my goal is to create a book that everyone can look at or read. Many people describe it as an anger iceberg, which is essentially what goes on underneath anger.  Here is an example of one I found.

packaging video idea

 This is the first scene of my video, it is someone holding a can of monster, they are about to drop it which will be the next scene.
