Shade: Silhouettes led by Darren Raven

A silhouette is the image of a person, an object or scene consisting of the outline
and a featureless interior, with the silhouetted object usually being black or some
other solid colour or texture. The silhouette is a powerful tool in graphic
communication – it’ s both specific in what it conveys and yet vague in leaving out
most of the details for the viewer to fill in for themselves.
In this workshop we will work with silhouettes to produce large images that,
similarly to silhouettes themselves, cause the viewer to fill in the gaps.


I knew it, but understood one more time , that shades and contours are really usefull and works really well for visual communication. Every object in the world has it's own siluhouette. And we tried to play around the shapes and colours.

The idea was to set the figures of people in the form of CCTV camera and set the eye where the camera lense supposed to be. I think that the idea is fine, but the shape now is not easily identified, so, I need to pick up another image of the camera for the contour.

Just playing with shapes and simple colours

Each workshop is kind of inspiration portion, where I undesrtand how different and usefull are the techniques.
Now need to concentrate on the Timeline .. Have a good week-end everybody, whoever you are! X)
