Montage

Descripon: An inspiraonal montage created by blending 7 photos together, and the use of

creave typography.

Programs used: Adobe Photoshop.

Date: February 14, 2016

Objecves:• Unify a layout with a consistent theme and typography

• Learn to blend two or more images together gradually, using masks

• Use a mask to apply a lter to one part of the image

Processes:1. I set the image to be 11in x 8.5in so that it could be printable on a sheet of paper.

2. I put the image of the stars in rst. I adjusted the colors, rst I selected the yellows areturned them a deeper peach and then I selected the black and turned it a dark blue color. I

also put a blue solid color mask over the enre picture to bring out the blues more.

3. I put Christ under the earth layer and blended him in by rst pung down a layer mask and

then by using the brush tool.

4. I then put the basket texture picture in and using a layer mask brushed out the earth and

turned the opacity down to 15%.

5. I played with the text for awhile to align it and make certain words stand out.6. In order to make the text pop I had to use the dodge and burn tools on the star picture layer.

Brochure

Descripon: A two sided (duplex) folding brochure.

Programs used: Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign

Date: March 26, 2016

Objecves:• Set up and align a two-sided, folded document.

• Create an original, new logo and use it in a brochure.

• Images clipped in Photoshop and text-wrapped in InDesign

Processes:This project required the use of a lot of programs. I used Adobe Illustrator to make my personal

logo that I put on the back. I used InDesign to layout the brochure. I used Photoshop to cut outthe family that is on the inside of the brochure. When I rst started this assignment I kind of had

a dierent theme for page, there wasn’t much connuity. However once I created the inside,

I really liked this idea of the blue bars. So I decided to make that my theme throughout the

brochure. I used the same blue that is contained in the logo so that the colors would stay consis-

tent.

PhotoDesign

Descripon: Demonstrate good photography and image eding skills, while also tying in andidenfying a color scheme.

Programs used: Photoshop


Objecves:• Take a quality original image, choose a color scheme to go with it

• Adjust image levels, saturaon, color balance, sharpen tool on separate layers

• Use layers to design text, and repeang graphic elements in Photoshop.

Processes:I formulated a plan and decided that I wanted to take a picture of a plant. On my way to the

library I saw this beauful berry bush and the red berries look striking against the snow. I cap-

tured this picture using a Cannon PowerShot camera. I edited this image using Photoshop. I

bumped up the levels, to whiten out some of the foliage in the background. I also edited the

vibrance/saturaon, used the sharpen tool, and put a teal layer mask over the image to add

some color.

I decided to keep the color scheme simple – monochromac red. I was having a hard me mak-

ing the leers stand out and that when I played with pung some circles behind it. I concluded

that one large circle was the best way to go, in order to keep the design striking and elegant.

Event Ad

Descripon: A color full-bleed event ad to promote a fundraiser using only Microso Wordand a scanner.

Programs used: Word and a scanner

Date: January 29, 2016

Objecves:• Comprehend image sizing (how pixels and inches work together)

• Create a full-bleed design.vvzz

• Learn to use only Word design features without using any Adobe programs, including Photo-

shop.

Processes:I scanned this image at 300 ppi so a good resoluon could be maintained. I lled the lower le

hand corner box with a rich red color to unify the rich, warm feeling that one gets when seeing

the image and when thinking of “warmth” since it’s a fundraiser to make and distribute blan-

kets. I decided to keep the text all white because it really pops in contrast to the dark back-

ground. This whole design was used only using Microso Word, it’s amazing how many capabili-

es this program has!

Logo

Descripon: A logo for my hypothecal design company.

Programs used: Illustrator


Objecves:• Use only the Illustrator tools to create and draw your logos.• Rene one logo with variaons for color

Processes:

I created several logo opons and aer actually designing 3 of them I took a vote.

This was the design that was rated highest, it actually was not my personal favor-

ite but aer trying out each of the logos as a watermark in the corner of a photoI had taken this was the one that looked best. So I decided to go with the popular

vote and funconality of this design. I then modied the thickness of the middle

diamond and the alignment of the text to improve the design. I then made it us-

able for black and white print, and white on a color background.
