Typography 

Pre-Production

Finding quotes for this project was fairly easy. I have the Pinterest app and look at quotes daily. I was very excited when I found out we were doing this project because I love quotes. The hardest part was only being able to pick four quotes because I like too many. I spent around two days looking on Pinterest and safari narrowing down which quotes to use. The next step was to choose fonts for all of the quotes, I went on da font.com to find them. I wanted simple fonts for most of my quotes and fancier more complex fonts for the more important words in the quote.

Production

Working on illustrator was easier now that we have done many projects on and it is later in the year. The only tricky part about putting the quotes together on illustrator was figuring out where to put the certain words in the quote. For some of the quotes I wanted the focus to be on the fonts so I didn't want to do too much with the formation of the words. Working without color was easier than working with color. For me picking colors was like picking fonts. It took a long time and it was hard to find multiple colors that went good together. While working with black and white I only had to focus on the font and the layout.

Post-Production    

I think that my final products turned out really well. I love all of the quotes that I ended up choosing to use. I also think that I did a good job of having the important words of the quote pop out more than the other words in the quote.  I also think that the colors that I used compliment each other very well.

movie trailer blog post

movie trailer blog post   the project process When we were assigned this project we were asked to pick a high school movie trailer and make one recreating it. My group and I decided to re create the breakfast club movie trailer. We thought it would be fairly easy because most of the video takes place in a school library and the rest in the school hallways. We had to plan out filming and planning days for the project which is something my group and I didn't do well on. The next step was to story board, we had to go through the whole movie trailer and describe and sketch out each frame. When it was finally time to film it was very close to spring break, we had two days of school left and we planned to film all of our footage in those days. Unfortunately we didn't get much done those days, the footage we did get had actors that dropped out so we couldn't't use any of it. When we came back from break we took around a couple of days to find more actors. The actors we ...

final blog

graphic design final reflection blog One of my favorite parts about graphic design was making the vector illustrator portrait. For this project we had to choose an image of ourselves, a family member, or a family pet. We then had to choose if we wanted to do an organic vector which is tracing the facial features on the objects face or a low poly geometric vector which is when you make lots of different and tiny triable on the subject. I chose to do the low poly geometric because I felt it would look better on my dog. It took me around two weeks to complete this project. I was gone towards the end of the first week, if I wasn't gone I most likely would have finished the project sooner. I faced a few challenges along the way. At the very beginning of the project I didn't know how big to make the triangles. I decided to do small triangles on my dogs features and bigger triangles on my dogs body. Another challenge I faced was having all of my triangles looking very similar whic...

music video blog

Music video blog  When we were assigned this project we were told to pick a song and make a video rein-acting  the original music video. The first step of this project was to pick a group. With working in a group comes teamwork and agreeing on things like the song, dates we were going to film, and assigning jobs in the group. My group originally was going to use the song "Tonge tied" by group love. We decided that we were going to change our song because the music video was in an older house and had a party going on. One of my groups biggest struggles was finding times to film so we decided that we wanted to film our video at school. We finally decided on the song "Congratulations" by post Malone because it took place in a filming studio just like the one we have here at school. The video also had the same "party" theme that the Tonge tied video had so we were somewhat sticking to our original idea.  After we began the beginning process of pic...
