This assignment was not too difficult at all, and, of course, I like any assignments that let me add new dimensions to my character. Additionally, since it wasn’t a terribly difficult assignment I got to play around with features on gimp that I hadn’t tried out yet, including color filling and text boxes. 

I liked messing with the typography in order to capture a noir aesthetic. It was a trial-and-error process, but I eventually found a font that I thought looked pretty cool. Additionally, changing the color of the font allowed me to add a variant design that makes each part of the bar chart stand out. For each word, I opened the color wheel and selected the base color. From there, I adjusted the levels the same way toward a silvery white shade. So each word has a different base color, yet all were adjusted similarly so that they would have a similar feel.

I wasn’t sure how much I would be able to play with my character here, but the assignment actually allowed me to add a lot of information in such little space. I think it tells a lot about my characters story, especially if you look at in the context of what we know so far.
