Here's a can of kid's pasta I designed...
Download the linear and print it out. Lay a new sheet of paper over it and sketch the dimensions. Your image area should be roughly proportional to 7.5" x 3.5"
Design a label for a kids pasta of your own. You may use any subject matter that appeals to you but do not simply redesign an existing label you found on the Internet or at the store. You may come up with your own character or characters or use an existing property - but do not choose a typical kid's cartoon property.
For instance, you could design "Breaking Bad" pasta or "Game of Thrones" pasta or "Grand Theft Auto" pasta.
Your design must include at least one figure (it does not need to be a full figure - you may crop or draw a close-up view), a close-up of a head, and a 2-point perspective environment. Notice that you must figure out a way for the environment to repeat at the two ends so that the scene appears continuous when the label is glued around the can.
Although it's not shown on my linear, you must include all typographic elements. Buy a can of kid's pasta at the store for reference of company logo, nutritional info, ingredients list, etc.
Make sure you include the title of your product and include all other type elements in your pencil linear.
Next week, upload a jpeg of one sketchbook page of rough, exploratory sketching in the Week #8 Sketchbook dropbox and place three jpegs in the ISA#2 Drop Box on eLearn: a photo of your hand holding a can of kid's pasta from the store or supermarket, one jpeg of your thumbnail sketches (as always do four or more thumbnail sketches) and one of your final pencil linear design. The drop box for late submissions of this assignment closes at the beginning of our normal class time during Week 9.
Please do not wait until the last minute to submit your files. Late submissions (after Week 8) will receive an automatic 20% penalty
