Project 7: Web Page Project

Description: A webpage designed to showcase a logo that I created this semester

Process: I had never had any interest in any type of code or anything about designing webpages. I used TextWrangler for every part of the “coding” and it made it much easier. TextWrangler is a dream to work with, it seems almost too easy. I used http://www.W3.org  a lot to check if my code was correct. After I had made sure that my html document was correcct I attached a CSS document to it that was pre-made for use. I took colors from my logo and the background image I placed in the webpage, and I used those for the text. I did this by using the eye dropper tool in Photoshop and found the hex codes for the colors and put that into the CSS document. I set the fonts to Times New Roman, Verdana, or Geneva because those seemed to be the best fit.

Programs/Tools used: TextWrangler and Photoshop

Description:Letterhead and business cards using an original design
Process (Programs, Tools, Skills): I started in Illustrator and made the boxes for the business cards. Then, using simple shapes I created the condor head and beak. Then I put the logo and the boxes in indesign. I created The letterhead as the first page in Indesign, I used the rectangle tool to create the colored boxes then added the text. I then added some contact information and using the elipse and line tools I made little footballs. Which seem to have gotten a little transformed and smashed in the post design process. Then I took the logo I made and put it in as a watermark at 10% opacity.

I moved the business cards to the 2nd page. I took the color from a football field and made it the background color for the back of the card. I used the line tool to create the hashmarks and copied the idea of the 49ers logo for the middle logo on the back. For the front of the card I placed the Condor logo and wrote condor sports and pasted my contact info.

Programs used: Adobe illustrator and indesign
Message: In Inca legend the condor brought the sun. The message is that condor sports will bring success in the games you play.
Audience: Those in need of sporting goods
Top Thing Learned: Making a bird in illustrator is tough

Project 5: Logos

 

Description:
Three logos
Process:This was an interestingly frustrating project. Illustrator is confusing and infuriating. I used mainly the shape creator tool and the pen tool. The 1st logo I just drew a moon, and then a silhouette of a mountain range. I was going to try to draw a Condor but it proved too advanced for me in Illustrator. The 2nd, I just drew a series of squares and turned it into a door. A fun play on words (since Condor isn’t spelled Condoor). The 3rd, I drew 2 circles, then cut out the middles, and cut part of the larger circle into a c.
Audience: Anyone interested in outdoor sports
Top Thing Learned: How to try and make a door using just squares.
Color scheme: top logo: complementary; middle logo: monochromatic; bottom logo: Monochromatic and color names: top logo: red; black middle logo: Black Bottom logo: Green and white

Bottom Logo– OCR A Stud(Sans Serif)

Project 4: Montage

Description:
An inspirational montage made by the blending of two or more images, and the use of typography.

Process:

1. I cropped the background image to 8.5×11.
2. I cropped the football player (Patrick Willis) and moved him to the background image of the bridge.
3. I created a mask on Willis and with the brush tool I faded him a little
4. I did the same with the ball and the logo with the trophies. The only difference is I left the logo alone so it is still vibrant.
5. Then, using the paint bucket tool, I inserted a layer of Gold color to fade the edges and give it a more vintage look while still keeping some of the sky color from the bridge photo
6. I added some text in Papyrus font.
7. Program Used: Adobe Photoshop
   

Message: I wanted to convey a love of the San Francisco 49ers, and an appreciation for how long they have existed as a team. I also wanted to add a little of the beauty of the Golden Gate Bridge
Audience: Anyone who is a San Francisco 49ers fan
Color scheme : Tetradic and color names:  Green, Red, Orange and Blue
Top thing learned: The top thing that I learned was how to work the mask tool. I had a very difficult time trying to figure it out at first.
