I am very proud of my final project for Type & Media Fall 2016. My final project was fun, interactive and simple and I will use what I have learned later on in my lifetime. I feel good about what I have completed.

I was really excited to see this model of a staircase at the museum. It is very symmetrical and everything about it, including the structure itself, is designed perfectly! I’m impressed!

One of the three companies that I would like to work for is About.com. This company has helped their visitors with a lot of information and topics that are needed to know and useful towards our everyday lives. I would like to help others who aren’t sure of what to do since all it takes is a single click.

Another company that I would like to work for is Godiva. This company specializes in making chocolates that are handcrafted. Since 1926 they have been the top company for producing their delicious treats. I love chocolate so this company will suit me well.

Lastly, the next company that I would like to work for is BuzzFeed. BuzzFeed is a great company since they have so many topics to talk about like video games, sexuality, relationships, school, friendship, culture, countries and they also have fun quizzes that you can take. Their youtube channels are also a big hit with many videos and subscribers. I highly recommend everyone to subscribe to them. You will not regret it.

While I was working on project 2, I learned that movement and sound are very important principles in the world of design. What the artists want you to see and realize is that words, shapes, and even a background can take your eyes into seeing a lot more than what meets the eye. The direction that they want you take will not disappoint you since later on it can make you think more about what is actually going on in a composition and I am happy that I learned what my professor taught me. Thank you.

In composition #1 rhythm is present within the flowers since they follow a unique pattern and movement is present within the vines of the flowers which makes it feel as though the vines are continuously growing.  Next, In composition #2 the triangles are presenting rhythm and inside of the them their are designs that are presenting rhythm, also. Finally, in composition #3 we can see that the air, snowflakes and stars are presenting movement and rhythm is not present in this composition.
