    Objectives Size and optimize a logo for a web page.

    Acquire a working knowledge of html. Acquire a working knowledge of css style sheets. Identify hex colors as photoshop colors.

    ProcessThe html and css were done in Textwrangler, and I learned a lot about coding andthe internet. The logo was brought in from my logos. The background was created asa gradient in Photoshop, then layered over a red background to mimic the gradient.The heading was replaced with a picture of the text to get the font I wanted. I

    messed with the text, and the background for the body to let the gradient showthrough and continue across the page. I really like the way it turned out.

    Objectives Design a t shirt for an organization. Show prociency in InDesign

    ProcessTo begin this design I traced out the simple shirt design from an online photo togive me the shape of the shirt. The front was styled to look like the periodic tableelements with those labels, and I tinted the letters yellow to give it a contrast. Theback is a collection of the most popular TV shows and movies that I could think of,with the word nerd scattered throughout in small yellow text to tie it back to thefront. I tried to match the font styles on the back to the general mood of the show ormovie. I really like how these turned out.

    Objectives Apply principles of design and typography Reinforce image quality/resolution principles Unify a layout with a consistant theme and constant message

    Use the FOCUS design principles with strong focal point and ow Demonstrate more adanced Photoshop skills for layout with multiple elements

    ProcessThe most important part of this process was getting the blending between photosright. I gethered the pictures together and cut the girl out and added her over theshoe picture on a mask. The blending together of the pictures took a long time toget just right, but when I liked the blending I added a color lter over both of them.I selected a quote I thought would go along with the theme I wanted, and colored

    it to stand out and communicate that theme. I quite liked how it turned out in theend.

    Objectives Set up and align a two-sided, folded document. Incorporate an original logo in a company brochure.

    Write at least 250 words of original copy. Trim with full bleed and print in duplex

    ProcessI wanted to do something different for this brochure. I designed the logo, thesmall paper airplane on the front in Adobe Illustrator. The rest was designed inAdobe Indesign. I planned the brochure so that it would fold into a paper airplane.I thought that the blue color scheme was very iconic for an airline, and the designelements reect the simple paper airplane logo. This was a complex project to map

    out, and I struggled getting the folds to line up at the right place.
