Desgin blog- week 3

 

 

Hey everyone! Another week, another big leap forward. Things are really starting to pick up, and it feels like there’s always something new popping up right when I think I'm getting the hang of it. It's definitely a lot, but honestly, it's been super exciting seeing the pieces come together little by little.

Starting from just learning the basics of HTML was already a trip getting used to writing out <h1> and <p> and seeing stuff show up on the page was cool on its own. But now, diving deeper into HTML and getting even more into CSS, it’s like a whole new world opened up. I’m not just throwing content onto a blank page anymore, now it’s about making it actually look good and feel right.

One of the biggest things that clicked for me this week was learning about divs and how they work with CSS to organize everything. Before, my pages felt a little random and messy, but now I’m starting to actually group things and lay them out in a way that makes sense. Also, I tried playing around with button designs this week. Adding hover effects and making the colors change when you point at them was just an amazing way to create more interactivity with your site. It’s those little details that make everything feel so much more real. 

There’s still a ton to learn, but honestly I’m pumped to keep going. Every time I finish a project, even a tiny one, it feels like a mini victory. Can't wait to see what comes next!

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.

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 ...

 Instructions   1 - Either A - Create a poster for an event, cause, or product that shows your understanding and application of Empathy, Composition, and Storytelling principles. 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...
