Alphabet soup / Illustrator Workshop

Initial Design 1.


I started with something simple, the helvetica font in black. In the back ground of the alphabet i created some bubble like shapes, i done this because the word condense means 'to reduce smaller' therefore the almost see-through droplets are in a lower concentrate than the bolder letters.
Theres nothing much to the design, but it's a start.

Design 2.


I wanted to develop the designs more by taking sections of a previous design and placing them onto the stems and serif of the letters. Here i changed the opacity of the alphabet letters to 20%, i was unsure whether the colour was then still classed as black or grey, never the less i continued to make the develop the set of letters to see what the final outcome would be.
I liked both colours, mint green and pail blue, i thought both looked appropriate for the theme of the alphabet. I went with blue a i felt it looked more suiting.

Here is the final outcome:
