Business Cards






    For this assignment we were to make three different business cards in Adobe Indesign. This required me to learn about the different techniques to work with in the program, how to create different designs, how to insert images like my logos, and how to use different fonts. Before working in the program, I created three different business card sketches, front and back. They are below. After making the sketches I kind of had an idea of what I was going to make in Indesign, and I am really happy with the way my business cards turned out. For the first two I focused on simple designs, but used colors that made my logo and the font pop. The font I used will make it easy for people to read the important information on the business card. For the third one, I went with the jungle theme and made my own kind of tiger stripes. I think that this came out really cool and the vertical one is definitely my favorite. Overall, I think this project helped me learn the program better. I also learned how to properly package an Indesign file which I think is a good thing to know. This project took about 8 hours to make, But I feel like I spent a lot of time messing around and learning the program.

    I really like these business cards. I think they are all very creative and the simplistic logo makes them look very sleek and professional. The last business card is my favorite. It is eye drawing and the colors and design look very nice together Great work!

 For this assignment, we were supposed to pick a picture or movie scene, take a picture of ourselves, and then make it look like we are in the specific scene using Adobe Photoshop. For this project, I chose to photoshop myself into the car scene from "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas". I chose this movie because it is one of my all time favorites and I love a lot of different parts about it. I incorporated my tag logo into the shirt the man on the left is wearing, warping the image so that it looks like part of the shirt. Some hard parts about this project was using the stamp tool to get rid of the guy in the background as well as using different masking layers with different opacities to match the color of the original image and the brightness of the sun coming from the left. Overall, this project took about 3 hours, was fun to make, and I liked that I got to pick what scene I was able to put myself into. I think that it is really cool that with photoshop, you can make it look

InDesign Tutorials

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ka2dh5wU6Es https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVW8AF2TMnw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHDy_nEvgd4     After watching these three tutorials, I learned a lot about the program and its tools. Some of my favorite tools that I understand and would like to use are the type tool, the frame tool, the shape tool, and the page tool. All of these tools make it possible to make layouts with different texts and images. I think that these tools will be some of the most common ones that I use in my work.      I think that the hardest indesign tools that I may have to use are the scissors tool and the convert direction point tool. I think that these tools will be difficult for me to use because it is hard for me to understand when I would use them. I think that the scissor tool may be useful, but I don't think that I will have to use it in my assignments because I won't need to cut anything out of my pages. I think that the convert direction point tool was a

Gunderson Black and White to Color

Image
          In this project, we were to use Adobe Photoshop to convert a picture of ourselves into black and white. After converting our photo black and white, we were asked to add different colors to the picture, following three of the different color rules and using different selection and coloring techniques. The three color rules I chose to follow were monochromatic, triad, and square. I really liked the color combinations with my base color when I was checking out all of the different color rules, so I decided to pick these three. Overall, I really had a lot of fun making this project and I feel like it helped me learn more about arranging layers as well as masking things in photoshop. This project took me about four hours to complete and I am happy with how it came out.
