FLIER

Description: Promotional flier for a BYU-Idaho graduate leadership conference.Date: Saturday, January 15, 2015Course/Instructor: Visual Media/Brother PingelProgram(s)/Tools: Microsoft WordObjectives: Flier ProjectProcess: I started out by sketch-ing out the ideas that I had in my head. I then picked two of the four sketches that I had. I showed a cou-ple of people my four sketches and they liked the two that I had picked without me telling them. I had the idea of using an entire photo for the flier and putting it as the back-ground of the flier. The photo was opaque and the text stood out the most. I thought that doing that to the photo was something different than other fliers, because most fliers have photos, but not on the entire flier.

EVENT AD

Description: This is a flier for my event!Date: Saturday, January 31, 2015Course/Instructor: Visual Media/Brother PingelProgram(s)/Tools: Microsoft WordObjectives: Flier for my eventProcess: I scanned the beach pho-tos, and then used a Word image effect change the transparency. The two photos I used were taken at the beach and I decided to use some photos I took for the flier. I tried using a “blue-ish green” color for my flier, because that is my fa-vorite color and those colors attract me whenever I am looking around at things! I chose the “georgia” font and used white for the upper part of the flier and black for the bot-tom half. Microsoft Word is actually an easy way to make a flier when you don’t have a lot of time and it’s easy to edit!

PHOTO-IMAGING

Description: PhotographyDate: Saturday, February 7, 2015Course/Instructor: Visual Media/Brother PingelProgram(s)/Tools: Image editingProcess: I planned out this project by choosing a color scheme for my layout, monochromatic. I used my Canon 60D and went to shoot three of my roommates. I put the pho-to into Photoshop and used these specific editing techniques: levels, sharpness, and color balance. I then designed an 8.5×11 layout that included my photo, a quote, and repeating triangles. I wanted to go for a blue-ish tone for the whole project, so I used the eye dropper tool to get the exact color I wanted for the background of the picture. I created three white triangles that were filled in, and three white tri-angles that had space in the center. Hooray for photoshop!

MONTAGE

Description: A spiritual montage made by blending two images, and the use of typography.Date: Saturday, February 14, 2015Program(s)/Tools: PhotoshopObjectives: I really liked the quote and I wanted to show Gordon B. Hinckley and he is the one who said it!Process: I made the background im-age to 8.5×11. I selected President Gordon B. Hinckley and moved him to the background image, and added a mask. I added some type with two contrasting fonts and I added a layer style to make the text more legible.

LOGOS

Description: For this project I had to make three different logos for the same company!Date: Saturday, February 21, 2015Course/Instructor: Visual Media/Brother PingelProgram(s)/Tools: Adobe IllustratorProcess: For this project i learned how to use Illustrator! I used the rectangle, polygon, and ellipse tool the most. I also used the same font for the the last two because I feel like it matched it a lot better. The first logo has a different font from the rest because it matches better!

STATIONERY

Description: Logo for a hair salon using a simple logo.Date: Saturday, February 28, 2015Course/Instructor: Visual Media/Brother PingelProgram(s)/Tools: Adobe IllustratorProcess: I created the entire busi-ness card using Adobe Illustrator. I mainly used the ellipse and line segment tool.

WEB PAGE

Description: A web page designed to present my video production logo!Date: Saturday, March 14, 2015Course/Instructor: Visual Media/Brother PingelProgram(s)/Tools: Illustrator, Text Wrangler, and Photoshop.Process: I made this web page us-ing text wrangler. It was somewhat difficult to learn at first, but after learning what I could actually do with html and css, it was fun making a web page for the first time. One of the easiest parts of this project was probably the css part. For that, I had to insert what types of fonts I wanted and what colors I wanted. The programs that I used were Illus-trator, Text Wrangler, and Photo-shop.

In Illustrator I used the ellipse tool to make my lobster logo. After making my logo, I chose a couple of pictures and put them in InDesign. I made some of the photos transparent to show the text.
