Design blog - week 1

 

 

 

            To begin with my design blog. I wanted to state a couple of the feelings that I had with laying my eyes on the course to begin with. At first I was quite intimated with how the course was intentionally portrayed, but with being intimated also brought a lot of curiosity for the course and how I can actually use this to better myself when I actually took a hold of the course and got to do it first hand.

        With first class presentation, I was honestly surprised. The start of how to get into HTML and the basic were very simple at first glance. While I was still intimated I started to see a lot of the creative and fun aspects that comes with HTML. Simple and complex at the same time, which is what really drove it home for me. The greatest of the first initial presentation was the actual follow along and to the creation of our first web pages. With a few simple lines of code and a few mistakes and polishing here and there it was all ready to go. But to say that this is even the FIRST and LAST thing to learn about HTML is not even a statement. HTML as a whole is very vast and is without a doubt a very intuitive experience. I ventured on my own to try and better grasp HTML with help from W3Schools.com me and my trusty little text doc were on a roll. The basic were honestly a fun experience, to create simple documents and just with a few <style> edits and a few <p> (paragraphs) and <h1,h2,h3> ( Headings 1,2,3) it was a blast to learn about, and while I'm very much still a newbie when it comes to HTML, I am sure as heck going to try my very best to learn the advanced and in's and out's of HTML.

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...
