Programs/ Tools: Photoshop

Objectives: Use photoshop to create the template for a webdesign.

Process:I first picked an idea of what I was going to use for the basis of my website. I chose my pregnancy.I then started sketching an idea of how I wanted to lay it out. I came up with a few ideas I wanted it to have several photos and an original lay outAfter I sketched it on paper, I then jumped into Photoshop and opened the 12-column grid. I started to create my wireframe to get me started.After my wireframe, I started to add the actual content and photos.My final design ended up being a little different from my original sketch and wireframe from teacher suggestion about the organization of my header, I decided to center my tag line to the center of the page like my navigation bar instead of the center from the edge of my logo. I also moved my social media links to create more space to add some content.

Objectives: Use all three adobe programs to design a folding brochure that is creativeand informative.

Process:I first created the giraffe logo in Illustrator and other geometric animal images. Originally, I left two of them empty from color but the teacher thought it looked incomplete so I filled them with color.Next I went into InDesign and started to design my brochure. I wrote my body copy and added the body copy so I knew how I want it to fit.I saved the images as Photoshop documents so when I was in InDesign I could edit the original and it would open in Photoshop. Then I could edit the coloring, etc and it would automatically update the link in InDesign.After I had all of my images and body copy text placed I felt that the front and back cover were too plain so I added a pattern at 10% transparency to make it more interesting.

MontageDescription:Create a spiritual poster montage using images and type. You can use a scripture, a quote, a thought, whatever you choose, but it must be spiritual in nature.

Create this montage by using a layer mask to blend images.

Objectives: Display your ability to design an attractive layout with text and images.

Process: I decided what my message and meaning would be first Then I found the photos I wanted to use online of pioneers and refugees and the photo of ChristNext I thought of the conference talk from back in April about the refugees and he used the scripture Matt 25:36 so I used this as my inspirationI shortened the scriptures to just a few words to make it more powerfulI then added the two photos around Christ to show the different people suffering at different times but that Christ is equally concerned about both just as we should be. I used the mask layer in photo shop to blend the photos.

Programs/ Tools: Adobe Illistrature & InDesign

Objectives: Create a striking logo and unity across several business documents.

Process: I first created my logos. I knew I wanted some kind of type logo.I did this because in our focus book when it talks about the power of branding I wanted the name of the business to be recognized as soon as you see just two lettersOnce I chose my logo I started with my business card.I did a vertical business card because not many people do that and its more original with my simpler text logoI also added the color green in my logo in the green for my color schemeMy goal throughout the project was to keep it looking professional and simple.

Objectives: Use HTML & CSS coding to design a webpage.

Process:First I used my logo from a previous project.I resized my logo to be no longer than 500 px on the long side.I created my HTML file and started adding my content and tags.Then I created my CSS file and made sure to link it in the HTML code.I customized my CSS page to match my logo and business colors and fonts.I left my back ground a solid color because I don’t have any images and I needed the color to tie into my webpage and create a color scheme.I then made sure to validate my HTML and CSS.

Objectives: Better understand the prezi softwear.

Process: After I researched, I chose an idea and then started sketching. I sketched out an idea that I had in my head regarding ways to be more creative. I chose to go with a child jumping as my graphic and then work around that I opened up Photoshop to create my background. I used my sketch as my basic foundation. I started by finding a large sized file of a child jumping then added colored shapes around to give it a more fun feel. I added the text and other elements so that they would be solidified in their position when I started working in Prezi.Next I went into the heart of Prezi, added my background, and started edit-ing. I added more of my content on the sides and then worked on the transitions.

Photo DesignDescription:Design a photodesign project that includes an original, new quality image, a consistent color scheme based on that image, some text, and a few design elements.

Process: I decided what color scheme I was going to use. I knew that I wanted to use a photo of my type writerI created a new 8.5 x 11 inch document in Photoshop.Then I pulled my photo on top of it and started designing.I added the color bars on top and bottom as well as the thin bars on top to use as my color swatchesNext I added my writing to incorporate the gold tone again in my design I also changed the dots on the I’s to the light circles to create more color unity throughout my workI worked really hard to make my color swatches not feel like random circles or squares in my work but rather part of the design.
