Sketch 1: Week 2

I first removed the sea monster and ship so that my main focus would be centered on the land forms.

I planned the movement so that it could represent physical travel as well as possible geological change over time. These changes include three locations I've traveled through and photographed, with distinct land forms and land fills. The first location, a group of islands, contains grassland from eastern South Dakota. The second location is a land mass which fills the entire frame--with no water--contains the Badlands from western South Dakota. The third image represents a coastline containing beach fill Hyannis, Massachusetts. Each fill and shape though is meant to be abstracted through my cropping and consequently more generally representational of various types of land.

I had difficulties with the bitmap fill; it would change position within the land forms whenever I exported. But it seems to work now after adjusting the fill positions multiple times within the file (making these changes within the symbol edit windows).
