Thus was born The Rabbit Hole, and my mood board to properly express what this fantasy, Wonderland inspired book store would be like. ]]> 2022-05-12 19:13:58 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2181816681 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2181818413 To begin the process of designing The Rabbit Hole, a logo first had to be made. There were a series of drafts over what the logo of this fictional store would be, but this one was the best and the one I finally settled on. ]]> 2022-05-12 19:15:29 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2181818413 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2181821616 The next step of making The Rabbit Hole was advertising it. As such, two different flyers had to be made; of the two, my first one, introducing it's grand opening, came out so much better with it's clean organization. ]]> 2022-05-12 19:18:14 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2181821616 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182004595 In the very first week of Graphic Design, a series of projects were made in tribute of a graphic design era. Using one my photos of the Cinderella musical earlier in the year, I made this graphic in a similar vein to how 2010-present graphic design is. ]]> 2022-05-12 22:52:11 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182004595 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182007860 The very first client project was to create the graduation tickets for the class of 2022. I used similar design elements from my flyer for The Rabbit Hole to create this ticket, which I think also came out looking really nice. ]]> 2022-05-12 22:56:17 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182007860 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182010150 The first DIY week had resulted in two very pink projects from me. The best one, however, was this fox, which I had as my phone wallpaper for a time. This picture in particular I love how it came out and how the colors blended together as such.]]> 2022-05-12 22:59:38 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182010150 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182011622 Week 2 of DIY projects resulted in my first GIF, depicting a fox glitching in and out. I adore how this whole project came out, easily being my favorite project I had made all year. ]]> 2022-05-12 23:02:14 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182011622 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182013811 Having taken a break from DIY's, we started another client project to create the tiered diplomas that the school intends to make, and would use these designs in years to come. While the project was difficult, given the lack of clear direction, it did come out really nicely. ]]> 2022-05-12 23:05:50 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182013811 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182016305 The project to create music album covers was certainly a fun one, especially with the one I ended up making. The main photo of me hanging upside down was taken at Mack Porter Park, which I had cropped out and spliced together with some ghosts. The title itself came from one of my poems, as did all of the music album covers I made. ]]> 2022-05-12 23:09:55 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182016305 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182020066 The third and final client project was for the Kearney Quarterback Club, to where they enlisted us to create 10 T-shirt designs for them. While there was a large variety of T-shirts made on my end, this one in particular stuck out for its simplicity and its nice gradient effect. ]]> 2022-05-12 23:15:20 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182020066 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182022483 Creating phone wallpapers was certainly tricky, especially as Photoshop did not always like to comply with what I wanted. But once I did, I created this very swell pattern using a Z angled diagonally. ]]> 2022-05-12 23:18:38 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182022483 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182025021 At the very end, portait illustrations took away any doubt of what was my favorite project. Making this project, and all the different versions I did, I found that making this one, with Sombra from Overwatch, was easily my favorite with how everything in it had to be done. The background, coloring, shading, all of it I loved being able to do. ]]> 2022-05-12 23:22:09 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182025021 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182027707 In a personal project I made in my free time, I created a graphic akin my very first project I had made in the class. Once again, I used a photo I had taken, this time of the Steel Magnolias play, and created a design to go along with it. ]]> 2022-05-12 23:25:57 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182027707 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182031235 Going into this class, I honestly had no idea I'd find such a love for graphic design work, and yet I did. Everything about this class spoke to me; the creativity, Photoshop, learning design elements, all of it. Almost every single project that I had any kind of free reign on (so basically anything except the client work) was all related to me and who I am and what I enjoy as a person. Now, at the end of the class, I know I want to continue doing graphic design work and am debating if it's something I should follow through on in college. Whatever I decide though, I know I'm going to continue working on this in my free time in one way or another. ]]> 2022-05-12 23:30:46 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2182031235 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2183084602 During the portrait illustrations, I started drawing Ruby Rose's Batwoman and removed the lineart, making another one of my favorite projects. This one in particular was a bit difficult because of the shading, but overall I really enjoyed the final product (the lighting really brought it all together once I added that). ]]> 2022-05-13 15:44:19 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2183084602 perryj76 https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2183095947 During DIY week 2, I tried my hand at landscape illustration, which led to this project. There are two versions of this project, but this one I've loved so much more for it's deep blue coloring and how it all blends together. ]]> 2022-05-13 15:52:01 UTC https://padlet.com/perryj76/graphicdeisgnIfinal/wish/2183095947
