Logo 2015




In my Logo Adventure, I experienced many ups and downs. To begin, I started with an interview process, where a friend of mine asked me questions about myself and what I was looking for in a logo. My answers helped to show me what I truly wanted to do. I then collected an array of different personal logos that are already out there in the world. This helped me gather ideas for what I could do. Also,  I used tutorial to create the twitter logo out of just circles! Isn't that cool?
 After that, I began to sketch. I took basic ideas, such as my initials, and explored with them.

Later, I went in to Illustrator to actually make the logo digitally. After a lot of hard work, I came up with three different logos.

Logo #1 

I like this one, but I feel like it doesn't really work.  It doesn't have any meaning to it. I just threw some lines and circles together.  

Logo #2

This one was my second favorite. I connect with it, because the suggested M represents the heartbeat in all of us. We are all the same on the inside, and that's what really matters, right? 

Logo #3

This one is my all time favorite. Not only do I connect with it, but I love it. It really describes me. (Plus, LOOK!! Another suggested M!!) The square shape represents strength, professionalism, and efficiency. But most importantly, they represent balance, something we all need in our lives, right? The pink symbolizes the tranquility that I need and respect, while still being fun and flirty at the same time. The dark gray text represents the modern sophistication that I bring to the table. Sometimes. As for the combination of shape and color, I hope this logo conveys the idea of a relaxed method of fun. As I always say, go with the flow. But don't forget to have fun with it at the same time. 



After I created the designs and picked the ones I liked best, my Graphic Design class got together and we did a critique of each other's logos. I really liked a ton of the different things I saw, and I got some great feed back for my own project, such as:
a) They don't really like Logo #1 either 
b) GRAY!!! YAY FOR GRAY!!!
c) ooooooooooooooooo a square logo? Me likey. 
d) Suggested letters? I think yes.

 Next, I will present this logo to my class from this blog. Hopefully, they'll like it. *crosses fingers* If so, imma do a little happy dance :)

End Of Year Senior Reflection

e-Communication has greatly impacted my life, even though I don’t plan on entering the AV Communication field. I am going to school to study music education, and I plan to take the leadership skill I gained in this program and applying it to my own classroom. I feel that I am more technically advanced than a lot of other kids my age. For example, I made my grad party invites myself, after coaching my mom through the photography process and photoshopping my own pictures. I have learned to collaborate with people I don’t particularly like, and I feel this skill will help me in my future workplace. As a teacher, I will need to be able to communicate with my students and my coworkers, and my job as AD greatly prepared me for that. Managing a set taught me management skills by allowing me to know when to adjust deadlines and when to stick to them. Leadership went from being a quality I never had to one of my greatest values, and I’m so grateful to e-Comm for teaching me all of this. Le...

PSA

The idea of the video was to hook the audience with something more dramatic and enticing, or in other words, a girl who is mad at her boyfriend because he got caught cheating. The viewers get to watch her argue with and accuse her boyfriend as they fight about what he did. What the audience doesn't know is that he is actually cheating off her school work. We tried to create an "Ohhhhh" moment, a kind of realization that dawns upon the audience when they finally figure out that he's cheating off her, not on her.  First, we sat down and looked at a list of PSA topic ideas, stuff like suicide awareness and drug abuse. When we had each settled on a few ideas, we brainstormed basic plot and synopsis ideas of each topic, and based off of those, ideas, we settled on Cheating. We figured it would provide the most interesting story for the PSA.  After deciding on a location, we visited it to finalize the decision. As the production designer, it was my job to ...
