This assignment had multiple steps. First, we had to create a logo. After that, we had to use the logos in different social media advertisements. I learned about the different social media formats and how to grab people's attention on apps.

Our job for this assignments was to create a logo for a podcast and have the influencers decide which was the best. I did research on certain podcast logos in order to make this to the best of my abilities. Mine was down to the top two choices!

This is another example of a project from DIY Week. I was proud of this one because it took a long time, and I think it turned out really well!

Personally, this was one of my favorite projects from this semester. Our job was to somewhat pixilate a portrait of a celebrity. I learned about a new tool and art style.

KME Advertisement

This project was completed as a group, but each flier was done by an individual. We had to make advertisements for a local siding company. I like how my flier turned out.

Maker Space Project 1

This project involved a lot of hands-on activity. We created designs and baked them onto cups, shirts, and earrings. This was the best one of mine.

This was another one of the designs I created. I used the Foo Fighters logo and morphed it. I learned how to use the liquify tool.

This is another example of the logos for the podcast. Out of all the logos, this is my second favorite.

Reflection

closserk — 2024-05-21 18:21:54 UTC

Graphic Design II was one of my favorite classes this semester. I loved having friends and working on certain projects. I preferred personal projects over client projects. However, some client projects were still fun. I learned more about Photoshop and editing skills. It wasn't just advertising that we learned. We learned about certain tools and tricks as well. As someone hoping to pursue graphic design as a career, I appreciate everything this class taught me.
