Process:
The process was actually kind of complicated but our teacher simplified it for us by helping us create a time management timeline. After we had an idea of how long everything would take we started sketching a layout design. Mine actually turned out nothing like my original layout. After learning how to use InDesign, I started setting up a layout and I started thinking how much cooler it would look if it was slanted, so I tried it and it worked out! I came into some major issues, inevitable of course with my first time using Id. I didn't know how to make everything the same space away from each other, how to set paragraph styles and lots of other things that threw my schedule way off. After getting all my pictures in, I had to find good fonts that matched well with each other while also contrasting each other. I added some fun daisy borders around to fill some white space and tie the whole thing in.
Commentary:
I really liked this project, it was one of my favorites by far. I thought I worked well with the time I had even with the set backs. My teacher often helped set me on the right track when I needed help and I am thankful to have someone steering me in the right direction. Graphic design is something I could see in my future and I'm grateful I'm in such a great program. I feel I develop so much with every project we do, especially this one and I can't wait to keep learning and growing and developing into a better designer.
