my logo

                                                My logo

The process

I was really excited to start this project because I've always wanted to create something of my very own. on the first day of this project we watched videos of other people creating logos. That helped a lot because after watching you knew what you had to do and you maybe even got a few ideas for your logo. Then we sketched out ideas in our sketch book of what we we wanted our logo to look like. I had no idea what I wanted to do but when I created my first idea other ideas just came. After that we choose three of our sketches to show Mr. Olsen and he talked about each one with us and gave of his opinion about which logo to use. he even gave us ideas of things to add to make the logo even better. Then we got on illustrator and started making our logo just using black and white. It took a while to decide what you wanted to look like, because certain things you sketch out may not look the same on a computer. you also have to choose fonts and sizes of certain things. Next we made different color variations of our logo. Again, it was hard to choose which color combination to choose but I finally picked one and then my logo was done!

Choices 

It was very hard having to choose the colors, shape, and font for my logo. I chose the shape first, this was the hardest part for me. I was unsure which shape would represent my personality the best. Finally, I decided that a circle was the best fit, because the circle can mean connection, and eternity. For the colors, It was not question that I wanted the colors to contrast each other, and I definitely wanted to have a pinkish colored involved because I feel that it can represent warmth and love. For the font, I decided to go with something more cursive, but not very bold so that neither one of them would overpower the other, The rounder, thinner font also looks more professional, which can also represent how I act. After all of the different logos that I had, I am very glad that I chose this option, and I could not have imagined a better product.

My personality type

After taking the Meyers-Briggs test it said my personality type was ENTJ. I am 9% extravert, 16% intuitive,1% thinking, and 16% judging. The test also said I take control of the situation and if there is a problem I try and fix it. I try to find new solutions instead of using other solutions I've used in the past or things other people have done. I like to plan out everything I do and set goals for myself while helping others set theirs, I also tend to share my knowledge. I went to another site and it said I like to spend my time talking to others. It also said I think through all of my decisions before I make them. I excel at logical reasoning and am quick-witted. People who have my type of personality are usually refered to as the commander because of our drive to take charge. We also went to a website where it told us celebrities who have the same personality type as us. A few people who are ENTJ are Napoleon because he was a general and emporer of France, Bill gates b...

Maddy Samuelson Sidewalk chalk

On the first day we got our teams and started thinking of ideas that we could draw that would symbolize each one of us. But the symbols had to sort of have the same theme throughout the drawing. So we each came up with four ideas that we could use. Some were similar and some not at all. For my symbols I chose a red rose which means promise, a sun which I think means happy, a tree for nature, hearts for love, and an American flag for USA. To be similar we all tried to do nature related things but like I said before some were a little off topic. On day two our groups started sketching the things we wanted to draw on paper. Some things that people chose they didn't like anymore so they changes some symbols. What I did is I had a few symbols from the day before and I added some so that I could fill all of my space up. I We also had to decide how we were going to draw all of our symbols on the ground. We wanted to be able to tell that we all had different ideas so we divided our sq...

vector illustrated portrait

vector illustrated portrait pre-production When we were assigned this project we were asked to take a picture of ourselves, siblings, or a pet and turn it into a vector portrait. I chose to use a picture of my dog because in that certain picture he had just came back from getting a hair cut and they put a cute bow tie on him. The sun was also shining through the window which made his fur have a variety of colors.We had a choice between an organic vector project and a low poly geometric portraits. I chose to do the low poly geometric portrait, which is when you make tiny triangles on the picture and then fill them will color. I thought that this kind of portrait would look better on an animal than the organic portrait would.  production My time spent creating in illustrator was very enjoyable. I found making all of the triangles relaxing. While working on this project I became more comfortable with using the pen tool. It was a little hard at first because I didn't know ho...
