Instructor name:
Ben Pingel
Objective:
Design an ed that could be used in different settings.
Fulfil the clients needs as to information.
Use programs the client wanted for ease of editing.
Process:
I first started with a very different alignment, using slanted angles and
contrasting colors. But I decided to simplify the design and focus on the brand
and company. The colors changed to a monochrome blue to create unity. I used a
filter on the scanned image to mute the strong pattern and bring the focus back to
the message and company.
M o nt a g e
Description:
This design is meant to pull the viewer in by the use of a strong photo and bold typography with a simple yet powerful message. The use of subdued
colors brings to attention the soberness of the message, as well. The asymmetry
of the layout brings a good, almost diagonal flow.
Programs used:
Adobe Photoshop

Objective:
Use masking to blend multiple images.
Use images and text to convey a message.
Create unity through design principles.
Process: I first found a message that I wanted to better illustrate with a photo
design montage. I then found powerful photographs that could be used to facilitate
that message. I used Adobe Photoshop to create the montage by first sizing the
image and adding masks and filters. The filter I used was a textured filter which
brought the reality of the design into the world without it having to be 3 dimensional. I used level edits to make the colors and brightness as I desired. I them
used masking and the brush tool to blend the two photos together. I customized
the text by adding an overlay.

Process:
To form a logo, I first started to play around with shapes and colors. Using
a company idea for inspiration, I formed a simplistic panda form. I edited the fonts

to be symetrical.
webpa g e / c s s
Description:
I used the things I have learned about the design process to create this
logo for a company looking to attract a specific customer. I created many ideas
that I narrowed down, then used my skills in the Adobe programs to bring text
and logo together in an asymmetrical design. I wanted a design that lead the
eye inward so I had the logos fade face into the company name. I used modern
looking typography that was simple and elegant. My colors were cooler and not too
flashy as this company wanted to attract a more serious type of clientele.
Programs used:
Notepad ++, Chrome.

Process:
I used a basic HTML document and alters and added my own tags and
text. I then linked in a basic CSS document and started playing around with the
different things I could manipulate. I used Photoshop to gather hex colors to use

alike to gather opinions and corrections.
