ITAP 2010  WEEK 7. principle 2 and principle 5

Principle 2 :Delivery - By choosing from a myriad of platforms illustrators select an appropriate format .
Task: Choose one creative and show how the format and platform has been used too great effect.
platform and format has been used too great effect,magazines,newspaper,brochure, billboards,showcase,the cover of bus...all of that are the platform for design.the work show in different platform will attract different audience.different platform will show the different characteristic of the work.

these are the design of  Parskid, a illustrator for Seattle .he try to show his work in different platforms , it' s  really useful for him.Parskid has been involved in the Seatte underground art scene for over a decade. Parskid draws inspiration from his childhood, nature, fantasy, and folklore to create haunting, otherworldly landscapes traversed by his iconic characters. His work has been exhibited extensively throughout the US, including LA and NYC, and also abroad in France, Australia, Taiwan, Spain, and the UK. His work has been published in the following magazines: Hi-Fructose, King Brown, Art Prostitute, Cool’eh, Novum, Beautiful/Decay, Day in the Lyfe, Belio and Dirty Soup; as well as these published books: Dot Dot Dash, Canceled Flight, War of Monstars, Pictoplasma 2 and Monstaah!.
He work mostly about childhood,the beautiful colour and cute character attract many child,he try to use the magazine,scrawl on the wall and skateboard,glass....as the platform ,it make his work popular .we all know the magazine's audience is who like to read it .but when the platform is other product,like skateboard,glass,the user of these product will become the audience of his work.so is really important for illustrator to show his work in different platforms.
