DB6 - T-Shirt Design

Design Brief 6 - T-Shirt Design

After producing the logo for the brand, I then moved onto designing the t-shirt. During my research, I found that many streetwear brands have their logo on the front and then design something for the back of the t-shirt. I took the same approach for my t-shirt design I experimented with the scale of the logo on the shirt and various different angles as well as different positions on the shirt. However, I found that the t-shirt design looked the best when the logo was placed in the middle and at the top of the t-shirt on a small scale.



Once I was happy with the design I produced on the black t-shirt I then reversed the colour of the logo and t-shirt and produced the same design but on a white t-shirt with a black logo.



When looking back at my research I found that streetwear has links to skate culture and style. So I took this idea and decided to implement a graphic illustration of a skater on the back of the t-shirt design. I chose to do a graphic illustration rather than an image because again within my research I found that streetwear design often included illustrations or stylised images with effect layered over it rather than the raw image itself. For my design, I found an image of a skater on Unsplash and brought it into photoshop and then added a threshold layer style ontop of it to create a stylised graphic illustration of the image. To keep the back of the t-shirt cohesive with the brand and front of the t-shirt I added another piece of tape over the skater design. Then included the logo without the tape in a vertical format.



Once I was happy with the design I produced on the back of the white t-shirt I then reversed the colour of the graphic illustration to therefore making it white.
