Six-word pic

This assignment was probably the most fun, mostly because it allowed us to just goof off, or actually take it seriously. We had to create a six-word story about our interpretation on the word "relationship". Considering I'm in a relationship that has lasted a year so far, I felt like my interpretation could be taken in the most literal sense. Here's what I came up with.

Facebook Causes Promo

Extra Credit assignments, aren't they god-like?

For this particular one, my group and I had to create a Facebook Cause promoting some kind of environmental group. We made up our own group called "GreenSpot", a group dedicated to cleaning up the local streets that have been littered with trash by the students.

We designed our own logo, as shown below and justified it with it's simplicity and potential to be printed on tshirts, bin tags, etc.

Since the group isn't real (yet, my boyfriend and I have thought about starting it) we deleted the cause, but below is a screen shot of it.

Sweet Polly's Web Design

My mother has assigned me the project of creating her new bakery's web site. I'm quite thrilled as I really love web and graphic design more than anything else. These are some of the ideas I was dreaming up (while in class today). Hopefully Adler doesn't mind. The class is about being creative anyway, right? It's better I'm daydreaming ideas then listening about his former students.

Anyway, here's the photos of my journal, the sketches and the scrapbooked version. I wanted some ideas as to colors. Since Sweet Polly's colors are something of the pea green and dark purple area. I've also had the font types I messed around with. My plan was to screen-capture the site as I was making it, but the software I have is a demo and therefore adds a gross watermark to it. Bleck! I'll screencap the finished project when I'm done though!

Keep Calm and...

I feel like I want to make some of my own parody posters of these. Maybe I'll do that soon. For now, I really just need to focus on designing my mother's bakery site. That would be good...

Extra Credit Assignment

Today I worked with Ryan on an extra credit assignment for class. Our prompt was to create a 8.5x11 page advertisement that promoted the idea of "smart growth" and pointed the reader to organizations providing more information.

This is what we came up with:
