The final project for graphic design was to incorporate everything we have learned into one project and also by using all the adobe programs we have spent time in which includes adobe photoshop, illustrator, and indesign. On this project i tried to meet criteria by including a picture that represents each of the strands and also some that are for all of the strands and the entire ecommunication as a whole. And i think the pictures of the roar video really capture the creative freedom that you get to have by being in this 21st century program and also the fun that comes from school wide events. And i included the coveted emagine awards which is what everyone should strive toward receiving.   

Logo blog

Above is my final logo that i decided on 

The process that i took from my first logo design last year to this year is quite long rigorous and adventurous. First i decided to expand on a logo that i started last year in E-9 for the time that we had in graphic design with a lightning bolt coming out of a crown and that was really symbolic and hard to let go for me personally. But once i stepped out of my comfort zone of messing around and tweaking the old logo i decided to sort of play around with things that i could do with my name since i am in fact branding myself and so that is my own and nobody else's so i decided i would get rid of colors in my logo and stick to black and white because in my opinion it is more professional and easier to look at and associate with. Then if need be for certain occasions i could go back and edit the colors sorta like what Google does with theirs for holidays. So i could see myself making the negative colors red and the outside ring green and then the inside ring yellow if i wanted to do something for christmas on a card or a website during the holidays then go back for example. And i was also sort of drawn to the simplicity of it.

New Star Wars blog

I had done a previous blog showcasing the difference between my blog and Saul Bass's movie posters and mine was called into question and rather than be caught up in the drama and stress of having to explain my case and argue i use the exact same skills i did the first time and create another movie poster with the same theme and ideas but different characters.
