Cartoon scene

Create a  caricature of yourself 

logo competition

The last logo of the semester!!woooohoooo!!!

Final I have finished that last thing that I had to do for this class for the semester. I made a logo for a sports company. The company is focused on getting the attention to all sports. They wanted their logo to be able to catch the audiences attention just as the Polo logo does. It was hard to create a logo that could catch someones attention like that because it is not a clothing company. I did the best I could trying to figure out how they could use my logo.

new logo

After the first logo contest, I decided that I wanted to enter a more creative contest. Judioo is a music company that needed a fresh new logo. I liked this logo that I designed because it looks cartoonish, and that is my style. I enjoy doing fun logo's. I cannot stand doing logo's that are just plain text. I know in the future that I will have to do just text logo's and I will do whatever it takes to make them happy.

Logo Contest

The second project we have to do to end the year is enter 3 logo contest. I have entered a few, and so far they are not looking too bad. I entered one that was focused on a company that helps people make resumes. The company put pictures on the brief about how they would like the logo to look. I tried to make them look as they wanted them to look. I also used different colors to see which ones they would like the best. Right now the contest is still running, so we will have to see what happens in the end.

The Paper

Right now we are working on a paper that is due on exam day. The paper is about how a desktop computer works, it is a very basic topic, but the point of the project is to make the paper graphics amazing. Professor Speyers wants it to look good basically, and use what we have learned in word and illustrator. I am half way through right now, writing the paper is easy, but making it all look good is taking a while. I would have to say that it is a good project to have for the last one.

It's Coming to an End

This semester of graphic deign is coming to an end. Right now we have been assigned to enter logo competitions and write a paper, which should be a good end to the semester. It is amazing to be apart of the first group of graphic design students at CSU. I really feel lucky to be in such a great major and have such a great group of supporters along with me. Our class is always enjoying art in some way and there is never a dull moment. Professor Speyers always keeps us motivated and working, even on the days when our hands are cramping and our eyes are burning. I cannot wait until next semester of classes and the rest of my time here at CSU as a graphic design major.

Monster

The monster project was my favorite project so far. It was a lot of fun and really made the entire class happy. My monsters name is Martin. He is not very complicated and when I say that I mean he does not have much to him. He is plain, but that is how I wanted him to be. I tried putting more hair and fur on him, but he just did not look right with so much detail. I was also going to change the gradient in the eye lashes, but it just did not look right. i might create another one with a lot of fur some time in the future.
