 Designs

 
        For my designs, I already had ideas in play before I started the whole project itself and how I would like to orient them to be presented. All of my designs mentally were all made to be very simple and straight to the point without to much to be bearing on the eyes, know what you are looking at, and what they are based around of. And a lot of these designs are as such.
 
        To begin with my full-page design, I wanted to create my design around the PPA (professional Photographers of America) and the ad is just a informational ad of what the PPA is and what they do, I wanted to keep the design very simple and not add to much to the top, and bottom. With the only writing being the main logo for the association.

 

          To start off with my second design my half-page design, I wanted it to be around the boys and girls club. The choice to do this organization was purely on personal experience. I was in a boys and girls club from the age of 8-11 back when I lived in Massachusetts, and honestly it was some of the most fun that I've experience from my young years of age. And this designs represents it best, to show off what they are doing for kids, and the message that they want to give. And I think my design shows this off best.

        To finish off the design show is the last and final ones, and those being my quarter page advertisements. These adverts were made around the e sports team for Keiser University, while I wanted to create a more of an inviting advert I still wanted to keep the same designs as the rest of my adverts with keeping it simple and not adding to much so it will be over bearing to the eyes, while still keeping the main message, and showing off what it is about. And I feel these designs captivate that espically with the main one being a tryout ad, and my second one being an informational application to sign up for viewing, scrimmages, or to apply for the multiple teams.

Designing Emotion- Week 2

Image
                       Hello everyone! Today I was tasked with a assignment that I would hold as one of my most challenging so far. This weeks project was orientated around emotion. To me emotion is one of the harder features that I struggle with as a designer. Emotion has been some of my greatest hurdles when it comes to designing, the thought process, the layer scheme, the image choice, the whole aspect what the emotion has to revolve under. But this weeks task was only to pick a song to design your piece around, and contact mainly on the emotion is gives off.               When it came down to main choice that I wanted to revolve around, my playlists are a mashup or every genre under the sun. My main motto when it comes to music is "If it sounds good, I'll like it" and ive stuck with that for most of my life. But that was just one of the many little hurdles that I got ov...

My Colleague.

Image
Instructions Visual Voice Inventory.  Create a collage or slide show of 8–10 pieces of your past creative work (photos, drawings, designs, etc.). Analyze them as a set: Write down the first words or feelings that come to mind for each piece, then look for patterns. Do certain adjectives repeat? Do you see a consistent color scheme or subject matter? Next, ask a friend or classmate to view the collection and describe what they  feel  is  your  voice or style. Compare it with your own impressions. This inventory will help you identify elements that already make your voice distinctive. Based on this, list three qualities you  want  to emphasize more in your voice (for example: “playful humor,” “bold contrast,” “compassion for outsiders”). This list becomes a conscious target for your future projects.  Content   Reflection   Time Made Visible. Mesmerizing, Temporal, Distorted    Rain  Moody, Dreamy, Quiet ...

Or B - Recreate a poster or Design that you have previously done, showing your understanding and application of Empathy, Composition, and Storytelling principles. 2- Create a detailed blog post that describes your visual choices and how you applied what you learned in Chapters 1-4 to make this poster tell a story.  Poster  For this project, I had the chance to create a poster of a movement, cause, or event of my liking. Or to recreate an old project of mine. At first I wanted to try and redefine and recreate one of my old projects, but looking back I don't really have any impactful type of creations..... But that's no worry. The image you see is made after a mental awareness movement. Since Men's Mental Awareness month recently passed past I wanted to try and give it a go with an organiza...
