Final product

Power Energy Ping (Pong) Cord Popcorn (made on the computer) Tea Salt Fun dip man For my individual project i made words with objects that correspond with the word. I made a most of the with objects i had and the last one i made on the computer for a difference in the way i made them. I picked this project because i was inspired by online designs and what i've seen on the web. 

Product For our final project we were instructed to get into groups of two and make a product/ box (that could be used for another use other then housing the product. So Wes and i decided to become partners. The first step was to pull of a sketch book and think of product ideas. Multiple ideas came up but we finally decided that a toy pizza was our favorite. So we search on the internet to find a picture of what our product was.  The product is targeted towards kids who like to play house or restaurant. So now that we had a product we had to think of a package design that would be able to double for another use. So we took to the internet and searched for some package designs and i saw a picture and it clicked for me. We decided to do a pizza box that doubles as a stove. Inspiration from google Our inspiration came from this picture. We decided that ours wouldn't be as complex as this picture but we would at least make the design a play stove that the kids could color in....

Emagine 2016 was a great experience. It exposed me to all new types of great art. Even the categories i wasn't interested in pulled me in. I saw all new types of graphic design, video, animation and all other types. My favorite category was probably the short film section of the award ceremony. I loved the one that won, "Ghost Guys". It made me laugh and pulled me in. There was a few categories that i wish someone else would have won but overall everyone who won, placed or even entered did a wonderful job. The thing about the type of art we do is that its different to everyone, One piece would be beautiful to one person and the next person could hate it. I also think that it was wonderful to see people from all over bonded together by this one art form. 10/10 would recommend.

For this project we studied the work of Saul Bass(creates movie posters). We took to google and searched some of this work.  We studied how his work is and what the main factor of his work is. He had different aspects. For example he used a limit of 3 colors and black/white. He also included a few main aspects that either included what the movie was about or the main character of the movie itself. From there we thought of ideas of what movies we'd like to make into a poster. We took those ideas and made some sketches for three movies. The three movies i've decided between were "Hector and the search for happiness", "Perks of being a wallflower", and "Forest gump". I decided i liked the idea of doing one for "Hector and the search for happiness". I liked two of the sketches and asked my classmates what they thought would be a better idea for my poster and came to a conclusion of a final sketch. I found a picture on google of his outline ...

For our graphic design final we were instructed to make 3 things. One business card with a pattern, one with a picture and text and one postcard with a quote. I started by taking idea from the website  https://www.moo.com/us/ I looked through different business cards with patterns on them and came across this one. --->  This pattern really caught my eye but i knew that if i created a simlilar pattern i would need to change the color. I took to illustrator. I messed around with this idea in mind for a while but ended up simplifying the pattern. I changed the colors to blue because it showed my love for Olathe Northwest and how my decision to go here instead of Olathe East changed my life for the better. It still followed the basic idea of that pattern but in a way that spoke to me. This was my final pattern design for my layout 2 postcard. --------------------------> On the back i added simply information about myself and who i am as a person. For my seco...
