StationeryDescription:A letterhead designed to be used for official business conducted by a company.

Date:8 Nov 2015

Course/Instructor:COMM 130-04 // Brother Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:Adobe Illustrator // Adobe InDesign

Objectives:Use the basic tools in Illustrator & InDesign.Create a new logo to fit a company or personal image. Use the new logo to design consistent layouts for a letterhead. Apply typography rules, keeping small copy.

Process:To make the headphones, I just used basic shapes in Adobe Illustrator, with a little help from the pathfinder tools. To make the curve that connects the two speakers of the headphones, I used quite a few processes. I first took a circle and expanded the stroke so that it became it’s own shape, and then used a rectangle on top of it, along with the minus front tool, and cut off some of the bottom of the shape. Then, I took one solid circle and overlapped it with another solid circle in an almost eclipse shape to get the waining crescent shape for the inside of the headphones. I used ruler guides to help make sure that the design was uniform in it’s width throughout the letterhead.

For the back of the business card, I actually isolated the headphones in its own Illustrator file and loaded it into the template.

BrochureDescription:A brochure for a simple and fun restaurant by the beach.

Date:6 Dec 2015

Course/Instructor:COMM 130-04 // Brother Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:Adobe InDesign // Adobe Illustrator // Adobe Photoshop

Objectives:Set up and align a two-sided, folded document.Create an original, new logo and use it in a brochure.Incorporate four quality images. One should be clipped in Photoshop and text-wrapped in InDesign so the text follows the cutout shape of the image.Write at least 250 words of original copy in at least three paragraphs, headers, and subheaders.Trim for a full bleed and print in duplex (two-sided) color.

Process:I used Adobe Illustrator to create the logo used, which is shaped like food. Then, I created a simple layout in Adobe InDesign. I planned to remove .25″ from each side of the page after printing, so I made sure that there were guides place at those dimensions. I then had to calculate where the two folds would go on the layout given that I would be taking a total of .5″ off of the total width of a traditional 8.5×11 tri-fold brochure layout. For the image of the Otai, I used photoshop to take the background out. Then, in InDesign, I used the Text Wrap tool to force the text to go around the image instead of over top of it.

Fresh IngredientsAll of our food and drink ingredients are purchased and used well within their prime. Your choice of meat includes farm-fresh chicken or pork, fresh-caught shrimp, or the most common, Spam.

Our special Teriyaki Sauce is made fresh daily. The fruit used to make our specialty drink, ‘Otai, is purchased daily from pesticide-free vendors. Have we mentioned that anything and everything is made fresh daily?

Our lovely customers don’t deserve yesterday’s leftovers, mainly because there never are any leftovers, but also because fresh is best.

If you are eating, you are going to be thirsty. Wash down your delicious Musubi with our specialty drink, ‘Otai. It is a traditional Polynesian fruit drink, made with watermelon, pineapple, coconut, and evaporated milk.

Of course, if you don’t fancy a cool, refreshing, made fresh multiple times daily, natural fruit drink, and then we’ve got you.

Enjoy from our wide selection of fountain drinks, as well as our many drafts and brews on tap. We also have a generous selection of local beers and sodas, in case a brand name is just too ‘main-stream’ for you.

Last year our visionary owner Brian Goodhue had an idea that would redefi ne the way that beach-goer food was seen. Not wanting to deal with having more than a few menu items, Brian decided it was time to make one thing really well.

A Musubi.

And that is just what he did. He opened up his very own restaurant in scenic Virginia Beach, Virginia and has been serving the surrounding community and tourists since.

Musubi Nation is a simple place where good people can get great food at an affordable price. Come join us and get a small glimpse of the islands without the cost of the trip!

ImagingDescription:An original picture, edited in Adobe Photoshop, with a relevant quote placed over the image.

Date:18 Oct 2015

Course/Instructor:COMM 130-04 // Brother Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:Adobe Photoshop

Objectives:Learn basic photography skills.Choose a color scheme, take a photo to match those colors, then incorporate the colors into the layout.Use a digital camera to take a quality image, then download it.Adjust image levels, saturation, color balance, sharpen tool on separate layers for NDE (non-destructive editing.)Size and crop the image, then place on an 8.5×11 page layout.Use layers to design text, and repeating graphic elements in Photoshop.

Process: I designed this using only Adobe Photoshop. First, I took this image myself, utilizing the Rule of Thirds and focusing on the foreground. Then I edited the image by itself using different layers. I even took the Spot Healing tool and used that to remove a wooden structure in the background. I then used multiple text boxes to achieve the desired result of the way the text is placed and sized. The “brick” colored embellishments are actually a font I accessed in Photoshop, “Bodoni Ornaments Regular”

FlierDescription:This is a flier created from samples meant to imitate the announcement of a leadership conference for upcoming university graduates.

Date:4 Oct 2015

Course/Instructor:COMM 130-04 // Brother Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:Adobe InDesign

Objectives:Apply the design principles and use appropriate typography.Incorporate basic InDesign skills to improve basic flier layout.Retrieve image and logo from links on this page.Create a project folder with image, logo and InDesign document to keep links in InDesign intact.

Process:First, I made a few sample sketches of various ideas and designs on a sheet of paper. Then, in Adobe InDesign, I actually created a hybrid by using certain elements from different designs. I adjusted the opacity of the solid color blocks to add depth and frame the elements of the page. I also used white rectangles to create the diagonal lines that can be seen repeated throughout the design.

LogosDescription:Three variations of a logo designed, using vectors, for a business.

Date:1 Nov 2015

Course/Instructor:COMM 130-04 // Brother Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:Adobe Illustrator

Objectives:Create three completely different, original logos to fit a company or personal image that will appeal to the audience. Do not imitate existing logos or use previous designs.Market research: gather opinions from at least ten people about which logo appeals most to them.Use only the Illustrator tools to create and draw your logos. (No Illustrator pre-fabricated flares, symbols, etc.. No photos or live-tracing. You may use an image or drawing as a guide to trace it with the pen/pencil, but delete the image before submitting.)

Process:I used a different color to set “Cat-” apart from “-harsis” and emphasize the first part. I increased the size of the first letter so that I could go through and add ears and a nose to give the illusion of it being the cat’s head. I use the pathfinder tools to put a curve on the bottoms of the ears so that they would flow with the curve of the letter “C”. I used the Direct Selection tool to manipulate the anchor points and curvature of a perfect circle to achieve the shape that ended up being the nose.

MontageDescription:Multiple images blended together to form one composite image.

Date:25 Oct 2015

Course/Instructor:COMM 130-04 // Brother Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:Adobe Photoshop

Objectives:Unify a layout with a consistent theme and dominant spiritual messageLearn to blend two or more images together gradually, using masksDemonstrate more advanced Photoshop skills for layout with multiple elementsUse a mask to apply a filter to one part of the imageApply typography principlesFormat type: Legibility; Small copy & Title with varying text size. Theme word(s)

Process:I first placed the image of the mountains, then brought in the image of the temple and used a mask and a brush to remove the hard edges and sky. I also used the brush to help blend and soften the image of the temple so that the mountain would just barely show through. I then put a “grunge” texture over the whole image, and then added the text of the verse. I emphasized “Come, Mountain, and Lord” in the text to help centralize the connection to the images. I then added the “tree trunk” texture over the rest of the image, using another mask to help remove that layer’s effects from over the temple image.

Web PageDescription:This is a web page that I designed to explain the design and thought process behind the creation of this logo from the logos project.

Date:22 Nov 2015

Course/Instructor:COMM 130-04 // Brother Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:TextWrangler // Adobe Photoshop // Adobe Illustrator

Objectives:Size and optimize an original logo as a .png for a web page.Acquire a working knowledge of HTML. Acquire a working knowledge of CSS.Identify hex colors to match logo, using Photoshop color picker.

Process:I used TextWrangler to create the html document. I made sure to indent each part properly so that going through to edit specific parts was much faster and easier. I then linked an image of my logo into my html document, as well as a link to my blog post about this particular logo from Project 5. I then added a link to a css style sheet. This style sheet was pre-made for the course, but I went through and changed certain visual aspects, like the placement of certain elements and the colors of all the elements on the page. I also used a website that validates html and css style sheets to make sure that both my html and css documents were valid and that the coding was “readable” for the computer.

Event AdDescription:This is a color ad for a benefit event

Date:11 Oct 2015

Course/Instructor:COMM 130-04 // Brother Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:Microsoft Word

Objectives:Comprehend image sizing (how pixels and inches work together)Find, scan and import a high-quality image.Create a full-bleed design.Choose a color scheme and typeface(s) that work for your message and audience.Learn to use only Word design features without using any Adobe programs, including Photoshop.

Process:I created this entirely in Microsoft Word. Color was a principle that I was determined to use in this project. I first tried pulling a color form the donuts, but soon found that using the color wheel provided from the Visual Focus textbook was incredibly helpful in picking the right color scheme. I later went back and lightened up the color scheme and rearranged the elements, adding a few more for more of a ‘picnic’ feel.

Promotional LogosDescription:A set of four logos designed to promote a band.

Date:6 Dec 2015

Course/Instructor:COMM 130-04 // Brother Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:Adobe Illustrator

Objectives:Create a set of four designs similar in style.Take one and apply ‘different’ colors to it to create a stained glass effect. One of the logos must be able to be used side-by-side/top-to-bottom in an almost continuous strand, or mirrored.

Process:I used Adobe Illustrator to create shapes, using the basic shape tools as well as the pen tool. I also used different forms of the same font to maintain uniformity, but to inspire indviduality among the four logos.
