created by blowing up my image to a larger size and changing the opacity to 5%.

logosDesCription:
Three new logos created for a new company.
Date:November 2, 2013
Course instruCtor:Julie Peterson
program/tools:Adobe Illustrator
objeCtives:Create a variety of logos to fit a company or personal image (at least 3 new
logos).
Do not imitate existing logos or use your previous designs.
Use only the tools of Illustrator. (No photos on logo page)
Setting up a professional display for the company. Arrange three logos on an 8.5
x 11 vertical page / .5 margins and add the company name in simple type at thetop of page.
Getting feedback from outside sources. Ask ten people to select their favorite
logo. List the results, along with your favorite, in your blog post.
proCess:For this project I used Publisher to create three new logos. Most of the images
were pretty simple to create. I used the shape tools to create most of the image
for the logos. Along with the logos that I created I used different fonts with eachone of the logos so that the company could be identified.

montageDesCription:
A montage created using Adobe Photoshop.
Date:October 25, 2013
Course instruCtor:Julie Peterson
program/tools:Adobe Photoshop
objeCtives:Learn to manage Photoshop layers.
Learn to blend images together smoothly, using masks. (Two or more images)
Use filters. (Apply at least one)
Apply appropriate typography.
Choosing good quality images. (Note background should be at least1650x1275 pixels)
Apply typography principles (titles, quotes, events or scriptures, your choice)
Unifying a piece with a consistent theme.
proCess:For this project I used 5 images that I found online and used the mask tool
in photoshop along with the brush to create one montage with images that
were gradually blended. To create the gradual blend you first have to place a
mask on the image that you wish to blend. After you place the mask on theimage you use the brush tool and change the opacity from 100 to 40 to 20
throughout the process of the blend. It is important when doing a gradual blend
on a persons face that you do not remove too much of the image or it looks
bad. After the gradual blending of each image, I added some text to the image
using the text box tool. Lastly on the background image I used the blurred

broCHure
DesCription:A brochure that I created using Indesign to promote Fort Worth, Texas.
Date:December 7, 2013
Course instruCtor:Julie Peterson
program/tools:Adobe InDesign
objeCtives:Set up and align a two-sided, folded document.
Create an original company logo and use it in a brochure.
Incorporate quality images. (Incorporate at least four quality images (Not
including the logo). 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 with at least three paragraphs.
Trim for a full bleed and print in duplex (two-sided) color.
proCess:For this brochure I used Indesign mainly to create an outline. Once I had set my
brochure up, I was able to take body copy that I had previously written a week
before, and place that text in the document. From that point I was able to go on
the internet and select photos that helped show visual depictions of some of
the things that I spoke about in the text. Some of those images were then taken
into Photoshop and cropped using the lasso tool, so that I could import those
images into my brochure and use text wrap.

Web page
DesCription:A website created using HTML and CSS to share a personally created logo.
Date:November 20, 2013
Course instruCtor:Julie Peterson
program/tools:Text Wrangler & InDesign
objeCtives:Optimize an original logo as a .png for a web page.
Write content to describe the process of creating your logo and how it appeals to
a target audience.
Design a web page using HTML to display the logo and content.
Identify hex colors for web design.
Compress multiple files in a zipped folder to attach as one file.
Open your HTML page in a web browser, take a screen shot, and place the .png
on a 8.5 x 11 page and print in color.
proCess:The webpage was created using the TextWrangler application, along with HTML
and CSS codes. I was able to start by writing the HTML code using knowledge
that I had gained by completing HTML activities in class. Once the HTMl waswritten, I was able to insert body copy that described the process of creating my
companies logos. When you are creating a webpage if you only use HTML, the
page will be very plain and boring. In order to make the page more aesthetically
pleasing we can utilize CSS codes that will modify the overall artistic layout of
the webpage. We were given a CSS code that was already written out, but I was
able to go in and change the existing colors, texts, and layout to create a whole
new product.

flier
DesCription:A black and white flier used to promote a graduate conference.
Date:October 4, 2013
Course instruCtor:Julie Peterson
program/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 linksintact.
proCess:I started by planning out what I wanted my flier to look like on paper. The Flier
was created in Adobe In Design. I created a draft, and my peers looked over and
critiqued the preliminary flier. I then went in and adjusted the flier to create better
flow, and moved around some of the pictures to create better alignment. The
contrast that is seen in the flier mainly comes from the black and white aspect of
the flier. The title of the flier has a white to black gradient that contrasts well withthe black heading text. Some more contrast can be seen when comparing the
body copy and the headlines.
