Tag Brush

Original Logo



 Tag Brush Logo
Final Product 
        This assignment was really fun and simple enough to do. My logo was something I made that really brought out multiple angles on who I am and adding these styles on top enhanced it more. It took me about a couple hours to do. The hardest part was reading the directions as carefully as I can and making sure I don't miss a step. I had issues finding different presets, but after some patience I was able to locate everything I needed to and finish the project. 
       During this interesting and confusing time in quarantine, I found myself listening to music I either haven't listened to in a long time or finding new music to me. I always admired classic rock and have been really getting into its groove and artistry. I wanted to pick colors that gave the feel of this classic rock or vintage nostalgia. I experimented with the placement as well as the size to my liking in order to emulate my inspiration. Playing with angles got too messy for my liking and the feel as well as the original logo became way too lost with everything. I'm really satisfied with what I was able to do with my logo.

Propoganda Poster



The Final Piece 


Self portrait inspiration

Propaganda inspiration piece 






          When given this assignment, I wanted to make a fun bandwagon propaganda poster that still held a message of something that people should think about more. I was able to find it when browsing images of myself and realized how many pictures I have wearing glasses. This became my inspiration for my poster. When doing the Self-Portrait portion of the assignment, I had a lot of difficulty when it came to my hair. The most difficult part was finding the texture that I thought was close to my image and still blended with the minimalistic idea I wanted. The self portrait portion took me about six hours to finish. 
          When it came down to the text and the actual poster, I wanted to do something fun and bright to highlight my message of wearing sunglasses to prevent damage to someone's eyes from the sun. I wanted bright orange and yellow colors for this. After the "text assignment" I knew I wanted to include some sort of image, in this case, of a sun. I found an image that I thought suited the picture, traced it and incorporated the words I wanted into the sun's image. This portion took me an hour, including brainstorming and research.
