Magazine Ad
In our first project we made a magazine ad. Before you begin making the Ad you have to know what principles and elements that you are going to try and use in your ad. To complete this project you have to go through your magazine and pick out pictures of the items that you are trying to sell. You then would put the pictures on the paper in a way that uses the principles and elements that you wanted to use. My ad is trying to get you to get make up. It has different types of make up spread out throughout the page with what it is in the middle, it also has a green backround. I was told that I should have put places that you could get the product and I could've placed the items on the page differently so you would look at everything instead of them placed all over the place. From this project I learned how to make a ad better so next time I do make something I could get the persons attention more so they look at everything and not just one quick look. If I were to do this project again I would use line so it would take the persons eye around the page and they would look at everything. Also I would try and use brighter colors so it would catch your eye and you would want to look at it.
Halloween Windshield Flyer
In my second project I made a Halloween Windshield Flyer. Before doing this you would have to know how you can catch someones attention so they look at the flyer. Also you would need to know what information you are going to put on your flyer. To do this project I thought of what I was going to make the flyer about and made the heading. Then I put something behind the heading so it would pop out and catch the persons attention. Next I put the information and pictures that related to the flyer. This flyer has pictures of costumes a game you could play around and pumpkins because they all relate to halloween and this is a halloween party. Also I included the information of where and when the party would be. I didn't recieve any feedback while doing this project. During this assignment I learned how to make something pop out to catch someone's attention. If I were to do this project again I would put more pictures and make it brighter so it had more stuff and less plain white space.
Black and White Flyer
In my third project I made a black and white halloween flyer. Before I did this project I had to know how to make colored objects to black and white. The first thing I did to do this projet was pick a subject. Next I got a few pictures and made them black and white. After that I added the information for the Halloween Party. This is a picture of my black and white halloween flyer. During this assignment I learned how to change pictures to black and white. Also I learned how to make the objects more white on a black backround so you could actually see them. If I were to do this project again I would add more things to it.
Thayer St. Tri-Fold
This is my fourth project. It is a brochoure on Cafe's that are found on Thayer St. Before doing this project I had to get information on the cafe's that are on Thayer St. The first thing I did was go to Thayer St. and go to all the cafe's and get information on hours, contact information and some specials or unique things about the cafe. Next I had to put all of the information into the brochure. After I had to photoshop my title to make it mine. During this assignment I was told to make sure that none of my pictures had pixels. If I were to do this assignment again I would have better pictures and find different ways to make the title's of each cafe stand out.
