LOGO

Halloween text(;

In this project I used the gradients tool, and followed the tutorial for this poster.I decided to make the words mostly one font but i changed the colors and sizes of the different sentences. I apologize for the year delay because this project was due October 22, 2013. Although, i tried my best, aligning the words in a block type text. Hope you enjoy(:

Halloween

The new things i learned  are the ways to make the spider webs and the letters have a glow in them.

Water pollution

In this project I feel like I used Proximity, and alignment Because i made the water droplet big and the words a descent size compared to it. The alignment I put the words in a box and changed the sizes and colors of the words to make them fit how they would feel or what you would picture with them. I think I used a good contrast with the photo because i used the same color as the water droplet and I used a light yet dark green for the word garbage, because normally when I think of garbage i think of a dirty green color.The word ocean I used kind of a curvy font because they ocean is wavy and i changed the color to blue because normally when you think of the ocean you think of a blue color. The proximity fits in because of the way i layered things out in this project. With the water droplet on the side and the words beside it, Different sizes of words and different fonts because the important words need emphasizes.

WOOF

The hardest part on this project was the fur, hints how messy it looks. My dog came out looking like a panda so i decided to make it a panda. The easiest part to make was probably the nose at least for me it was. The tablet was hard to use i guess i made to big of strokes. I added white to the grey letters to make them like a panda-ish type of fur. All in all it came out well, for my first time trying to make it.

Lyric Typograophy

My choices on this typography project was the song Open letter by the Amity Affliction because i figured it would be easy to add details too and meaning with the art. Plus, these lyrics have a nice tune, they kind of just work together. The song just gives an emotional feel, its one of my favorite songs. Here is a link to the lyrics i used: http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/amityaffliction/openletter.html . I bolded the important words, i made them easier to see. Made the stand out, i figured this way you would know the words that mean something in the lyrics. Passion and beauty were more of a curvy cursive font because i figure these would show the meanings of the word. The words are in a softer font, because they have more of a sweet meaning. Passion is in purple because the color purple symbolizes love and passion so i figured this would be a smart idea. The word searching is in more of a typewriter type font because i thought of like a detective report when ever i was thinking of ways to interpret the word. Sky is in a cloud shape, because when you hear the word sky dont you think of clouds?
  The cloud shape kind of draws attention to the word sky. The word heart is over lapping a giant red heart, because i figured the red heart would give the photo more color. The less important words are smaller than the important words and they are in the same font. The lines emphasize the way everything sit. It kind of gives it standard. The whole text is in a square type lineament because it makes the text easier to read. Keeps it from being to all over the place. The few photos and shapes i added in this typography gives it a more pretty look. It emphasizes certain things, gives more of a meaning into the photo. Keeps it from being a word document type thing, that way it isnt dull. The Shapes draw your eyes to the words and the quote makes you want to read it.  The few colors added into it  keeps it from being plain, keeps the page from having a dullness to it. The space is perfect between words, they are not to close together or to spaced out. They have enough space where it is easy to read. All in all everything works together in this typography.
