| # BLACK & WHITE ILLUSTRATION The "Black & White Illustration" was the first project that I worked on for my Graphic Design class, esentially taking a black & white photo of an object & tracing it over using Adobe Illustrator. Before this project, I had never used Adobe Illustrator or had any experience with pure vector graphics, but it really enlightened me, for a lack of better words. A vector file is such a versatile format that, while time consuming, opens up near-infinite possibilities in terms of making near-lossless quality images. You can see both the original and the illustration below. A comparison between the original, unmodified image & the final illustrator file. |
