David Carson

David Carson is an American graphic designer, art director and surfer. He is well known for his innovative magazine typography. The message that he's trying to send through his work is the fact that young people could still read but read in a fun way, which is why his work has different letters that have different sizes and positions, as he wants young people to read again.

Before 1993, David Carson's work was illegible but in 1993 he started his own font label for the Ray Gun Magazine, called GarageFonts, and since then his work has become legible but still kind of hard to read due to it being in different positions and even sometimes one behind the other.

His inspiration is mainly his environment, he taken pictures of what he sees because he believes that what he sees is a great inspiration and causes him to design the things he has designed.


Personally, I think that David Carsons work is really good and that he has a very creative way of projecting it in his magazines.

EVALUATION

Even though I wasn't able to create my final product, I could finally come to a conclusion of what I wanted to make and how I wanted to make it. However, I was able to make the lower part of the boots which is the slipsole,outsole and toe box all put together to make the lower section of the boot. 

 For this I used wood, Acrylic paint,,PVA glue, sequins, and 0.5cm (long) nails. The materials that I used to create this made the actual piece successful and also suitable for the lower section of a boot. I wanted to create something that gave a certain sense of light which is why I added some sequins to it so that when it is worn the sequins move and create light.

Personally, I think I could have done so much better is a sense, be more creative. What I mean by that is that, could have used different colors for this to make it less common and also I should have made it rest and dry for a day so that It would have looked neat instead of having all those green towel tissues marks on it. 

The materials that I used did make it work, but at the same time I'm thinking that if it was added to a boot and worn for about at least 4 weeks the paint would have worn off and you would be able to see the wood. So, I would say if I had to do this again, I wouldn't use wood or maybe acrylic paint but something that would make the product have a long lasting life cycle.

Overall, I proud and happy of what I have achieved in this 3D area with the theme of light but personally I think I've found it very hard to apply it to what I wanted to create.

Next time, I would have to work quickly and be more decisive and also know what I am doing.
