1. What are pixels?

Pixels are small elements of colors that forms together into an image on a computer screen.


2. How are RGB colors used in computer monitors?

RGB colors used in computer monitors by using a light (which are originated colors) in order to  displaying many colors on the computer screen. This leads to look different on papers than on the computer monitors as different originated colors is being used on papers.


3. Is RGB an additive color space? Describe how that works, focusing on the color sliders in the program.

Yes RBG is an additive color space. It works by starting with color black and then spreading into three different colors to create multiple colors. As the colors is being multiplied, the colors turns lighter. When the colors balances equally it create a significantly white light.


4. Give an example of subtractive color?

Example of subtractive colors is cyan, magenta and yellow.


5. What are the challenges of using additive and subtractive color?

Additive colors are red, green and blue in which they are being reflected from the light. On the other hand, subtractive colors are yellow, magenta and cyan in which they are obtaining light.


6. What is color calibration?

Color calibration is to measure the colors in the screen in order to set the color in a fixed state or conditions.

The PMS (Pantone Matching System) color system ensure color fidelity by assigning each specific color with names and number as well as matching it with other colors that looks similar to that specific color in orders. This creates a consistency in the colors.


8. What is analog color?

Analog color is when you group the colors in a wheel in which the color that have similarities to another color and then putting the similar colors next to one another.

Digital color is when you represent the colors and creating a bridge/gap in  between the colors that are considered additives and subtactive in order to define it's method in the computer screen.

Hierarchy on Grid by Rafid Khan

                                                                      Hierarchy on Grid                                                                          By Rafid Khan   This is Hierarchy on Grid #1 design, as you can see this design represents the letter C. I believe this C that I've created using grids and type boxes is rather a type of C that is used for the font for Minecraft. So I have created this letter by using grids and type box in which the process of making this is very basic. In the entire first column, I've put placeholder textbox. In the second column, I've put the place holder box in the first and the ...

Portrait in type

Portrait in type by Rafid Khan              So for my portrait in type assignment, I chose Pop Smoke. As you can see, it's very incomplete assignment as I'm unable to have time to finish it as the picture contain many details on Pop Smoke. However, the things I've put on my Pop Smoke with typography looks somewhat decent as I've completed most of his face. So let me tell you the process that I've went through in order to make this so called incomplete Pop Smoke type art. One of the biggest challenges I've faced while making this type art is that I couldn't determine what letters could fit on the features/areas of Pop Smoke. Since I have lack of knowledge to put variety of letters in the art, I mostly used the letter I to outline the picture of Pop Smoke. For the eye pupil, I used the letter O, I was intending on using the letter O twice but I realize that it won't really work out well. I got some advice and thought of using the letter C which perfectly...

Self-Portrait

Self-Portrait by Rafid Khan As you can see, this is my gray-scale portrait-to-color portrait. Let me tell you the process that I went through while making these portraits in Adobe Illustrator. First of all, the biggest I faced while starting this assignment is trying to find a good picture of myself. Normally I don't really take pictures or selfies and when I do it's not really a good one. After so many attempts of trying to take a good picture of myself, I was like "forget it". So on my last selfies, I decided to use them in my assignment. So I cropped my picture so that it somewhat shows mostly my face and neck. I then opened my selfie to Adobe Photoshop and add the grayscale in my selfies by 8 levels. I then saved my selfie as grayscale and then opened it up on Adobe Illustrator. When I got into Adobe Illustrator, I locked up the original photo. The first thing I started drawing with a pen tool and curve tool is the black shades. My intention was to draw from darke...
