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!

Gunderson Autoscopy

Image
           For this project, we were to create an autoscopy in Adobe Photoshop, which meant we had to re create a picture of ourselves in a cool and different way using other images with different layering tools and techniques. I had 5 pictures that I used in this project, and they are below. The goal that I was going for with my autoscopy was to represent myself and my creative side. In the back ground is the Willis tower, which represents my home town of Chicago. Behind that is a record store shelf to represent my love for music. I decided to mask my sweatshirt in a stone pattern to represent my inner strength. I played with the hue and saturation on my flannel, then I added the swirly pattern over parts of the building and the records. Finally, I used the brush tool to draw onto my eyes in order to make things look cooler and more vibrant. Overall, this project took me about 5 hours total to complete and I had a lot of fun making it. I think that this is...

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 direct...

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.
