Using Adobe Illustrator I made 6 different logo designs for the client to choose from.
Out of the different designs he choose one he felt best fit his desired look. To create
the logo he chose I traced an image of a palm tree and peace sign. I then found

To make this webpage I used the Text Wrangler program to write my CSS document
and attach it to my html. To begin the process I wrote a body copy and title explaining The Vibe logo and inserted them into my html. I then chose two websafe
contrasting fonts for both my title and body text. After that I used CSS to give my

the website layout and backround image.

part of the stationary are put together like puzzle pieces it makes the triangle symbol complete.

Objectives:
Create an event ad to help make people more aware of a local fundraiser for
cancer patients on May 25th from 8-4p.m. at the Madison High School.
Process: To create this Bake Sale Event Ad I started by formulating a plan. This

scanned my image from a Matthew Meads magazine. To create a good flow to my

Objectives:
Create an appealing flier for a Graduate Leadership Conference using the specfic
information, image, and body copy requested.
Process:
To create this black and white flier I was given an image and specific requests to
what the flier must include. Once I reviewed the information and images I organized
a layout for my flier. The next step was inserting contrasting fonts to help the flow of
my design and attract my target audience. I then had several peers critique and
give me feedback about my flier. This helped me get an idea of what I could improve on in my last step. My laast step was to unify each of the elements and make
a final product.
