BW to Color

 Original Selfie:


Monochromatic:


Triad:


Analogous:


This project assignment was exciting and different. This is not what I expected to do in Photoshop, but it was really cool. It took me a while to understand how to complete this assignment because there were many videos and different steps. It took me a lot of patience and concentration, but after I was done with the first colored one, the other two were not that bad at all. I think I did a good job, and I am happy with my results. I chose my colors from the analogous, triad, and monochromatic. I did not even know these things existed, but I am happy that now I know! I am excited to see my classmate's projects and see what everyone chose to do. My favorite is the monochromatic one because the colors really compliment each other, and it looks the most natural. The other ones are a little bit too intense for me, but still, look really nice.

    Alexia -- I like what you did in this project because you played around with the backgrounds of each project and used very unique and bright colors that popped.

    I am not sure if you meant to follow this route, but the combination of color selections and the shapes they create gives a cartoon-ish style to the photos, and I really like it. The second and third images with the blue and purple give me a space fantasy vibe like something out of a movie or comic book. I think you did a good job with this exercise.

Propaganda

Image
 This is my final project: Here is the picture of myself for it: My inspiration:  I decided to do something regarding COVID-19 because it is a genuine issue in the world right now. Many people do not follow the rules, and this results in the pandemic lasting longer. If we all followed the rules, kept six feet apart, wore our masks indoors and even outdoors, and stayed home whenever necessary, our situation would be doing much better than what it actually is. People seem to have forgotten the reality of the world and are acting as if nothing matters anymore. I hope that my poster inspires people to "just wear it" because that is the least they can do. I think I did an excellent job because my propaganda looks like the picture my roommate took of me. I did the word "wear" in a different color, so it stands out. I also got inspired by Nike because they say, "just do it." It should not be that complicated to follow the rules and do what is right. I know we can

Logo

Here are my five mood boards:  Here are my five sketches for the possible logo:  I decided to go with the adventurous logo and here is how it turned out: I chose to create this logo for myself because I am a very adventurous person; I love traveling, exploring new places, trying new things, challenging myself, and taking risks. I always say to people that we only have one life, so why not try to do as many things as possible, at least even once. This summer, I learned how to surf for the first time, and I also caught my first fish. I was very proud of myself for accomplishing these new things, especially for learning how to surf. This is something I have wanted to do for years, so it was a dream come true. The logo I made for myself is of a surfboard in the middle of the ocean with some waves because I also really love the ocean and feel very connected to it. I decided to add half a sun at the top to complete it because the sun is also special to me. I think it is cool how wherever you

Business Card Sketches

Image
  These up here are my three sketches for possible business cards. It took me a little bit because I wanted to think of cool designs and not be boring. I like them because they are all different types of styles. The top one is more formal because it has less design, and it gets straight to the point. The second one has some lines and circles to add some design. Finally, the last one has some flowers which I think makes it look charming. Even though flowers can be a little overwhelming for professional things, I believe a couple of them or tiny ones would look fine. I am excited to see how they turn out in the application!  Updated card:
