Raster and Vector Graphics – Strange Scale

Project Description – The Rabbit Hole Goes Deep

Take two vector images and combine them to create one image, however one of the images must be scaled up.

Reflection

I always consider Photoshop to be the beast of the Adobe suite. This project was one of many that introduced me to some of the basic functions of Photoshop. In the project, I was impressed with how far architecture has come. The ability to create giant building structures that can almost form into any shape is truly amazing.

Create a brand for a company and design a logo and images to describe their services with simple shapes. My teammate and I decided to create branding guidelines for a luxury travel agency.

This project allowed for free creative choices. It was the first experience working on a team with someone else. It also introduced how much time and effort goes into researching for a brand. This was also a good start on time management.

Project Description

The objective for this project was create PSA in the form of an interactive poster for an organization of your choice. I chose VNSNY and their hospice program.

Reflection

Hospice is a delicate time for someone and their family. It’s knowing that you have only so much time left with a relative or friend and making them the most comfortable as possible. I think any organization, facility, or company that takes on such a task, has great care and dedication to their community.
