The Monday (Friday) Report- Emotion Designs!


So these are my emotion pictures, showing loneliness, happiness, loudness and bubbly-ness(?). The way lines are drawn can definitely affect the mood of the drawing. For example, a dark, heavy, jagged line isn't going to remind someone of happy things, it would bring to mind a dark, angry feeling or mood. In the same way, a light, swirly line wouldn't bring to mind an angry, resentful feel. I used fonts in the same way, for example, in the lonely pic, I lowered the opacity of the font in the background and used a font that gave a quiet, mysterious feel. This made it feel quiet and lonely. Another example would be in my loud pic, i used brighter, more fun fonts and played around with the size to give the impression of sound waves. This could help me in the future, even in the next project to set the mood for text depending on what text is talking about.
