  • A stationary project for a new company.

    I first thought of what I should do for this project. I decided to make a stationary for my own career as a web designer. Then I thought what could represent a web designer. I then thought of a spider web logo. I sketched up a couple webs, and I went to illustrator. Using illustrator I made one divided section of the web, then I used the rotate tool to copy the sections all around. For the web on the business card, I wanted it to be a continuous flow to the other side. So I made the web cover both sides of the card, and I used the shape builder tool to cut out the excess web. For the color of the web, I wanted it to be similar to a value of grey to be smooth to the eye. I then decided on the fonts that I should used. The oldstyle Calligraphic font that I font went well, and the Avenir font showed the informational text good.

    The message is a web and the code tag to show that the stationary belongs to a web developer.

    The audience is for anyone looking to make a website. Typically they would be adults.

    The best thing that I learned was the rotate tool. I used the rotate tool to make the web.

    I used a monochromatic color schemes with a very light grey color.

  • This project is an inspirational montage using multiple photos with image masking and layering.

    The first thing that I did was look for an inspirational quote. I did this to get inspiration of what to draw and to sketch. After the sketches, I found the photos that I wanted to put into my project. I found multiple mirrors, a candle, a dark hallway, mist, and dark clouds. I then started to combine everything into Photoshop. While combining all of them, I used image masking and layering. There were some problems with making an accurate reflection. I ended up just making a fog dominant in the photo. Then I was looking around for a good font to make the photo. The font that I used really complements the old-style of mirrors. After much refinement, I was able to print out the final project.

    The message of the montage is to inspire people to spread light as if they were a candle and not a mirror.

    The targeted audience would be teenagers and young adults. This would also be for the people that may be having trouble with identity issues.

    The top thing that I learned was how to show a proper reflection, or attempt to make a proper reflection. Another thing that I learned was how to use image masking and layering.

    The filter that I used was a dark and dusty photo, to convey more darkness over the hallway and dirt over the mirrors.

    The color scheme that I used was a split-complementary. I used the colors yellow, green, and violet. The other colors in the photo were dark values of grey and blue.

    The font that I used was Myanmar MN Regular.

    I also used Myanmar MN Regular.

  • This is a flier for a graduate leadership conference. This project was made using InDesign. While formulating what I wanted to make, I knew I wanted to make something simple with a good focus point on the picture.

    The first part of the project was the formultaion stage. In this stage, I got to think about the message and audience that I wanted to gear towards to. As a result, I was able to make the sketches of what I wanted to draw. After drawing, I went to InDesign to make the flier that I was envisioning. I was thinking of two different designs, so I printed them out for the critique. I received the critique, and I modified the designs how I wanted to make.

    The message is to gain more leadership experience in the workplace through training with officials from Vouant Communication.

    Graduate students are the targeted audience. They are meant to be attracted towards their career with leadership opportunities.

    I learned how to use InDesign more. I do have previous experience with the Adobe software, but I have not designed something from scratch in InDesign. This is important to learn, because all of the Adobe programs are different in functionality purposes.

    For the typeface, I used the font Perpetua in the Modern category.

    The other font that I used is Aktiv Grotesk in the Sans serif category.

  • Three logo variations for a website.

    I started out this process by sketching out what I wanted to make. I knew that I wanted to make something related to the website that I am making. With the logos, I wanted to have one similar to the facebook logo, and another one I wanted to be a simple typography example. After I was done sketching, I went into Adobe Illustrator to make them. There were a lot of variations that I made. At first, I tried making a hand-written font, but that did not work as well as I wanted it to. So then I went to a sans serif bold font. With the middle logo, I first made it with the pen tool. But then I learned about the shape builder tool to make the logo look smoother. The last logo I had some difficulty with, but I made it to be a typography example. With all the logos, I implemented two monochromatic and one analogous color scheme. It seemed to me that the color schemes could be very simple to show how a logo should be.

    The message is be bright and encourage people to have date activities. This will be the purpose of the website.

    The target audience are young adults.

    The top thing that I learned was how to use the shape builder tool in illustrator. This came out with really smooth and nice looks on the logos.

    The top two logos are monochromatic. The top logo is a value of red, and the middle logo is a light value of blue. For the bottom logo, I used an analogous color scheme with blue and teal.

    Top Logo First Font (Title Font): I used the Aktiv Grotesk Bold font.Top Logo: N/AMiddle Logo First Word: I used Century Gothic Regular.Middle Logo Second Word: Then I used a Georgia font.Bottom Logo First Word: I used Century Gothic again.Bottom Logo Second Word: I lost what font I used on the second one, but it is a font similar to elephant.

    The middle logo received almost unanimous count of being the strongest logo.Top Logo = 2; Middle Logo = 11; Bottom Logo = 0;

    My favorite logo is the middle logo, because it conveys more the message of the website name. Bate means when a bird is starting to take off to fly.

  • It is a flip brochure.

    It was really fun making this two week project. I started out with the basic layout of the brochure. I used paper examples with boxes as my sketch process. I made the logo by the same way. After sketching and making the folds of how I wanted, I went into InDesign to lay everything out. I made the logo in illustrator, and I modified one photo in photoshop. I retrieved other photos from the internet in order to make this project. I got the layout that I wanted and the next week started. I learned how to make paragraph and header styling. So I put in the text that I wanted to use. I ended up modifying the text just a little bit due to the text that I had. And then I continued the project modifying and fine tuning some small aspects. Then I came up with this!

    Inform my audience and convince them of the use of semantic web design.

    Web Designers or people learning to become web designers.

    The top thing that I learned was the paragraph styling and wrapping.

    I used a monochromatic color scheme with different hues of green.

    I used a sans-serif font called Corbel for the titles of my brochure design.

    I used a serif font called Cambria for the paragraph text.

  • This is a ad flier for a fundraiser of Boys and Girls in the BYU-Idaho planetarium.

    The process was done by looking at what pictures could give me good possibilities and sketching out the layout. At last, I was looking in the January Ensign, and I saw this picture that I used. To develop the ad, I used the great features of Microsoft Word. I especially wanted to use some nice simple balance in this ad, so that the photo would have a strong presence. At last, I chose a good font for the title and body text. Those fonts brought out the purpose of the event.

    I wanted to convey an awesome message of a fundraiser opportunity for Boys and Girls while utilizing the star photo.

    Parents that want their kids to get a good education are the audience of my ad, because they would want to bring their kids to the show so that they may learn about outer space.

    The color scheme that I was using had a lot to do with the color schemes on the scanned image. I wanted the preserve that color scheme. The hues that were principally used were red and white. The scanned image also provided hues of teal and orange. It is almost a split complementary color scheme that was used.

    I think that the best thing that I learned from this project was diagonal balance, color manipulation, and asymmetry. The lab tutor helped me understand this principle well when he critiqued it. The ad is so much more interesting now than it was before.

    For the title and motto, I used the font Britannic Bold.

    For the copy and body font, I used Cambria Body.

    The scanned image that I used was on the last page of the January 2015 Ensign with about a 6 inches by 8 inches dimension. The scanner that I used was my room m ates and it was in my room.

  • This is a flier with a split complementary color scheme, with the purpose to orient the faculty of BYUI to the Faculty Technology Center is if they need help with a Learning Management System called Desire2Learn.

    I had to be very diligent through this process, because I made about three revisions and it came out well. I started out the process by sketching what I wanted with the layout of the poster. The original layout had the photo on the left side and the body text on the right side. After I made the sketches and the plan, I went to the FTC to take a picture of a coworker. Everything was all taken or planned, so I started to edit the photo to how I have it in the final picture. Then I started to assemble everything together in Photoshop. I was able to get so many good reviews, so that I was able to bring out the flier to what it is now. I changed the color scheme from tetradic to complementary split. I rearranged the original format so that the flow of the design was more natural. And I also eliminated small details that were making the flier a little clustered.

    The message of the project is to offer help to the faculty members of BYUI when the I-Learn changes to Desire2Learn.

    The audience is the faculty of BYUI.

    There are so many cool things that I learned or reaffirmed in my project. Possibly the top thing learned was the use of unsaturated colors, so that they appealed easier to the eye. The final project is much easier to look at than the original draft.

    I used a split complementary color scheme with unsaturated colors of blue, orange, and blue.

    For the title font I used different strengths of Segoe UI font.

    For the body font I used Bookman Oldstyle regular.

    I took this photo in the Faculty Technology Center on the third floor of the library. I took this photo at 8:15 in the morning on February 3.

  • A webpage to show the logo I made a couple weeks ago.

    I started out this project by looking at some modern styles for webpages. I observed that some modern styles are appearing with blocks that stretch across the page with another block of text that would be contained inside. I wanted to try and resemble this appearance because it looked more attractive that some old-style webpage. I used an open-source editor called Brackets. I really like this one, because it is very light-weight and has two great features. It has an auto-fill and a live preview feature. I first made the HTML file and I then created the CSS file. The HTML file follows an inner div technique that I learned in another class. The inner div technique also accomplishing the modern-style webpage that I wanted to make. With the CSS file, I made the logo move out and in and I made the webpage responsive through a media query.

    This message is meant to explain what was the process I used to make the logo.

    The website is meant to appeal to the companies that are looking for how I made the logo. I am also making the same website, so with the website I want to appeal more towards the young single adults of BYUI.

    The top thing that I was able to learn is doing the CSS animations. This would be really useful for me because I am majoring in Web Design and Development, and it would be handy to know.

    I used a monochromatic color scheme with the hexadecimal colors; #E6E6E6, #076989, #83B4C4, and #B5D2DC. These are all different hues of gray and the color in the logo.

    The title font is slab serif called Roboto Slab from Google Fonts and it has the color #032A37.

    The body font is sans serif called Open Sans from Google Fonts and it has the color #06546E

    I actually made my own CSS file from scratch. I did not want to use the CSS file given in the assignment, and I created the look to how I wanted it to feel like. I also design the webpage to be responsive through a media query and I added in a CSS animation.
