Tape Dispenser

Mechanical Illustration

Brief

Create an instruction manual inspired by IKEA that shows how to put together a mechanical object.

Process

After buying a tape dispenser from a local thrift store, I took it apart and put it back together a few times to understand the process. Then I drew the tape dispenser put together and all of the individual pieces on paper in two point perspective. After a critique I attempted this process twice more until my two point perspective drawings were accurate and all in the same perspective. I then used adobe illustrator to reproduce my drawings as vector illustrations. To depict the different steps some could be pieced together from the existing illustrations and some had to be drawn from hand in two point perspective and made as vector. The manual includes a key of all the pieces, steps, a title page, and an end page.I made a variety of branding for the event to show that the fist holding the pen was a symbol that would make merchandise people would enjoy wearing during and after the event.
