DMA212 – Tim’s Blog ../../../../timn11 Just another DMA Sites site Tue, 04 May 2021 18:41:18 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0.4 Project 3: Package Design ../../../2021/04/26/project-3-package-design/ ../../../2021/04/26/project-3-package-design/#respond Mon, 26 Apr 2021 14:45:25 +0000 https://comdma.com/timn11/?p=111 This project taught me to think outside the box while staying within the parameters given to us. Because we had a starter layout, choosing a layout that looked clean was the easiest part. I learned how to correctly space things out within a specific file, as well as create patterns. We also learned how to correctly vector a logo to use in our package design. The most challenging part was the mock up. Making sure everything was correctly folded was much more difficult than I had expected. My submission could be improved by changing my coffee cup design. I would like to get better at drawing and that is something I would definitely like to improve. Overall, I enjoyed the way this assignment was given to us, and I don’t think it needs to be changed. Learning how to vector a logo was important and it’s something I am going to take as I continue to work in the future. The class videos helped me really understand how to do certain things in order to make my design as perfect as possible.

Project 2 ../../../2021/03/24/project-2-3/ ../../../2021/03/24/project-2-3/#respond Wed, 24 Mar 2021 13:21:14 +0000 https://comdma.com/timn11/?p=107 This project was fun to create because even though we had to follow the instructions, we were able to also go off on our own and have fun with the effects in Photoshop. Overall, I would say the concept of this project was easy, but it came with many challenges. Trying to choose the correct layouts, overlays, filters, etc. were all difficult. It took a lot of trial and error to figure out what looked best. To improve my submission, I would try and go slower and really pay attention to the fine details in this piece. I think this project was clearly laid out in a way for the students to succeed. The powerpoint instructions along with the small videos helped reassure I was doing certain things correctly. With this project I was able to understand fun Photoshop effects that I am definitely going to take with me as I continue to do more projects. What helped me the most with this project was the early critiques. They helped me get a sense for what I was doing on my own.
