Magazine
For this project, we had to create a magazine cover and back along with the spine through indesign. We had to take all the pictures ourselves and have an advertisement on the back. I took my pictures on the Tampa Riverwalk and made a magazine about the winter festivities in Tampa. Using Indesign was not as fun as illustrator or photoshop only because it gave me some problems as well as making it difficult to print because i used a newer version on my computer. Overall I am happy with the result of my project but will not be using indesign anytime soon.

Propaganda
For this assignment we had to create a constructivist propaganda poster. I decided to create mine on the Chicago Blackhawks hockey team. Hockey usually gets overshadowed by football, basketball, baseball, etc. This poster represents the reasons that people should watch hockey. The only thing along the way was I began to create this in letter size, but I was able to change it to tabloid without having to restart. I didn't struggle to much in creating this it was actually really enjoyable.

Logos
For this project we had to create 3 logos for 3 different brands. I created logo for a gym, a radio show, and a law firm. I got these ideas by using resources I had, my mom owns a gym so I used her name and ideas for her gym. My high school has a radio show and I used the names of one of the student shows as the name on my project and I used my previous knowledge of working on and with the radio for the images. Finally, the idea for the law firm was used just because I find that stuff interesting. This project was not as difficult as it seemed at first. Having the knowledge of the pen tool and many different things I could do with the fonts and words really helped a lot.

Calligram
For this project we had to create a calligram, which is creating a picture using only words. With the use of illustrator and the techniques we learned in class I was able to make a design that I think is pretty cool. I used a picture of Marcus Kruger from the Chicago Blackhawks as my reference, and used words that had to do with hockey, or the Blackhawks in general. I really enjoyed this project, I struggled a little with placement and how to have a good use of values but other than that I really like the way mine turned out.

HTML
For this project, we had to code. We had specific shapes and uses of gradient colors to create through the use of coding in Dreamweaver. This was a little difficult to be able to grasp the concept of coding, but once I got the hang of it and understood it more than just copy and pasting numbers, it became an easier assignment. I would not do this again but now that I have this knowledge of coding, I will use it to be able to better understand our future projects in Illustrator.

I'm a Toy
For this project we had to take a picture of ourselves or a friend and turn them into a toy. We first sketched the ideas we had on paper which was a little difficult for me because I am not an artist. Once we did that, we chose a sketch to recreate and take a photoshoot based off that sketch to later make into a toy through photoshop. Once we had our pictures taken, I had a lot of fun making Tamsen into a marionette. Being able to take a realistic photo and make it look almost fake and plastic is so cool to me and I really enjoyed this project.
