Project 08 consisted of creating a zine filled with food illustrations.
My zine is a passion project that investigates some of the foods I have eaten when going out with family and friends. The illustrations are depicted in a pixel art style and captures a new way of visualising food as almost an experience.
I shot various photos of the foods I have eaten to allow me to visualise the foods as a series of artworks.
The illustrating process involved sketching, lining, blocking in the colours, rendering, and adding highlights.
These three iterations involved changed typefaces, arrangements, and layouts for the design. Overall, I chose the final iteration as the outcome because the labels throughout the zine resemble "price labels" of food products and provide a sense of cohesion.
