I started working on a letterhead logo for Anubis productions and was given a certain set of instructions for what our teacher wanted - they wanted Papyrus font with an egypitan theme and the rest was up to the designer. So I started by looking around for profeessional free to use assets that could be of use to me, eventually I found a few options but, had to make sure they were free for commerical use. In the end I found one website - Pixabay.com that had an anubis asset that wwas free for personal and commerical use. I also experimented with placing textures within text and trying various strokes to create different effects. On the left you'll see a more detailed explanation of how the logos came to be and on the right you'll see the finished project. Additionally, these letterhead logos where actually choosen to be used by my teacher!


The next work I did was an Indent, this is essentially a short introduction to a company at the start of a film - think when you go to cinema and see the 20th Century Fox start-up or something similar to that. I tried to keep it on an Egyptian theme here by setting the indent in a tomb, additionally I focused on a pixel art scene. Firstly I created a canvas in photoshop and focused on making a corridor with torches, this starts with making the wall and the basic outline before colouring it in and then folloing suit with the flames - I also tried to animaate the flames by using different layers of fire and switching between them to make them animated - finally the scroll effect comes from after effects which essentially reuses the graphic endlessly to make it seem we're moving down a corrridor.

The Next scene is simply in the chamber of anubis - here I've just done the same where I made the base, filled the colour in and then added animations to the flames. Furthermore I added an animation that dims the screen and adds a glint to anubis's eye to end the Indent. This Indent wasn't chosen to be used however, I appreciated the chance to apply learning Pixel art to some form of work.
