PhotoDesign
Instructor: Ben Pingel
Course: Communications 130 Section 1
Date: March 31, 2016
Programs Used: Photoshop
Description: This project was designed to help
us learn how to use Photoshop and create a
design through it as well.
Objectives: This project helped us become
more familiar with Photoshop and everything
you can do within it. Creating a flyer helped
display that learning.
Process: I began this process with the idea
that I wanted to make something that was
different and interesting. My design is different
because I wanted it to be centered and the
color scheme is not bold. I added a layer
in Photoshop of white and played with the
transparency to create a faded look. I also
bumped up the blacks and contrast a bit and
decreased the highlights to give a more worn
look and have the text stand out more.
