Graduation Program

I think a strength in my design for this cover was the letters I used. They stand out and easy to read. After looking at everyone else's covers, I believe I could have done a better background like more interesting and not to plain and simple. I thought graphic design was going to be very easy. I thought I was not going to have any problems doing these program but it was kind of hard because I couldn't put my thoughts together to make it look nice. In graphic design I think knowing what your design is going to look like is very important because if you start from scratch it will be hard to put your thoughts together, similar like what happened to me. Graphic design plays a role in society today by design different things and making them look more interesting that it grabs people's attention.

Alternate Program: Senior Portfolio Show

I think a strentgh of my design cover was the colors I used because it is only about three solid colors instead of it being so colorful. The thing that I could have done better was to use a different picture on the front cover and maybe use a different background or use it a different way. The thing I struggled with the most was the picture we had to put on it. I did not know what picture I wanted to put so at last minute I just put any picture. I think I did better on my Graduation cover because I had better ideas on how I wanted it to look like. I did better designs, I think.

PAST

Doing this project was a great experience working with Photoshop. The idea I put into this project came from me and some came from looking at others quilts. My decisions were pretty good but I know I could have had better thought into it. In some quilts I couldn't think of anything to put, my mind would go blank. I think some cam out better than others. Like my past quilt, I like that one better than the other three because I put more thought into it. On the other quilts it jut wasn't enough what I put in them. My struggle was thinking of what to add to the quilt square and finding symbols to express my ideas in such a way that would represent them clearly. To overcome these struggles I asked people what were some good symbols and pictures to add, it did help a little. All of my four squares had the color purple in comparison to unite them in a certain form. For each square I used different symbols but the one that most stood out to me the most was the rings in my future quilt because it was all big and noticeable. In all four of my quilts I was honest in expressing my thoughts. What I like about my quilts is that I used the color purple to unite them because purple is my favorite color. I also believe that would be the strongest part of the quilts I have made. I had a great experience throughout this project. I learned new things about me and new things from Photoshop. What I would do different is think harder about what to include in my quilts and out more thought into each one of the squares.
