Project 9: Portfolio

[scribd id=260787056 key=key-lz1NcPqnNdub3i8jnfHC mode=book]

Project Corrections / Time Spent: I spent an hour and a half designing a new layout for a Resume. I found that it was important to choose a color scheme that was bright and contrasted with the white font. Using Adobe Photoshop to delete the background off of simple images of an envelope, map pin, and telephone helped me be able to get images that would work into my design; turning it into a vector graphic in Illustrator was the final touch.  Deciding to make corrections on my Event Ad, I spent well up to one hour improving the proximity and alignment of my text and gradient lines. The corrections gave me an opportunity to perfect my Ad and possibly use it as a template for future design needs as I am a volunteer for this organization.

Message: There will be a time in the future that I will need and want to showcase my work in a professional way.  Using a bold, structured, and clean design I was able to highlight my designs while displaying my personality.

Audience: Potential client and employers.

Top Thing Learned: Using the FOCUS principles and having a basic understanding of the Adobe Suite Software, even a novice can produce impressive designs.

Future application of Visual Media: I plan on using these skills to communicate positive messages whenever and wherever required of me.
