Color Wheel Project

Color Wheel

These past few days we have been making a color wheel to get to know how to use adobe illustrator better. So this was a very simple and easy project that let us know how to use certain tools and this is like our first step to do even bigger projects. Overall I did pretty well and it was a very simple and easy project to do. First we made the big circle then put 2 triangles in the middle and one of the triangles is upside down and dotted. Then we made smaller circles for the primary colors and squares for the secondary colors and small triangles for the triaph colors. Then we typed what each color was then we were done and all I had to do was save it. 

What I Learned 

I learned a lot on what to do in adobe illustrator while doing this small project. First we did some review and learned about the color wheel and all of the colors. Like primary and secondary colors. Then we learned some tools on illustrator. Like the shape tool and how to use different shapes and make different shapes. We also learn the stoke and fill tool which can fill in a space and outline a space. Another tool is the art board tool which can edit your size of the art board. We also used the text tool which is when you can just type words.

Conclusion

My experience with this project went a lot better that the last project. This is one of the projects that I would like to do by my self. During this project I didn't really have ay trouble with it at all. The only problem was me not writing down good enough notes and me forgetting what to do. So if I had to do something differently next time I would just take better notes next time. Other things I would like to learn is making my own logos and stuff like that.

Graphic Design Final

My Favorite Projects Typography Graphic My 3rd favorite project was the typography projects. We found some of our favorite quotes that were meaningful to us and then made a graphic design out of it. The project took about 2 weeks. Some challenges I faced were just trying to find the right color schemes for each of my graphics. Some new skills I learned were how to use different types of pens to create different styles of strokes and textures. I took feedback on my color schemes. I changed the style of the spider because it did not work well when I filled it in with color. I think overall it turned out pretty well I think there is some room for improvement though.  Concert Advertising  My 2nd favorite project was the concert advertisement. What we had to do was pick an artist or musical artist and create a poster, tickets, and poster. This project took about 3 weeks. The challenges I faced were just trying to figure out how to put ever single piece of information ...

House Project

The Project So for this project we used sketchup and we had to make a model of a house we found on houseplans.com. This let us learn sketchup more and how to use different techiques in sketchup. The Process First we had to find a house then we had to look at the measurements of the house. I first just made a big block then I shaped it to look like my house. Then once I just got the shape of my house I added a porch and stairs. Then I started adding windows, doors and stuff like that. Then finally I looked back at my house and just tried to compared them and I added extra details that I forgot to do. Then after that I made an animation of giving a tour of my house.  I used this texture for my porch I used this texture for my house.

Semester 1 Final

Reflection This semester I have learned a lot. Like using Photoshop and Illustrator. I like Photoshop personally because it is a lot easier to learn and I like photography and editing my photos better than making graphics on Illustrator. My two favorite Photoshop projects have been one of the first ones we did, which is the "Nature Man" one. I also really liked the Panorama one. Nature Man For this project we were given a picture of this man and a bunch of nature pictures. We had to put them together by using clipping masks to create a "Nature man". I do not remember how long this took because we did this project at the beginning of the year. I had trouble just getting started and trying to decide what I wanted my vision for him to be. I honestly just played around with it until I made something I liked. I learned how to use photoshop a lot better like using those clipping masks to put more than 1 picture together to create just one picture. The feedback ...
