Vitamilk

This is my product, Vitamilk. Vitamilk is a special milk that repairs your broken body, and it's filled with great nutrients. Making the label had it's troubles, but the real challenge was getting the 3d revolve to work correctly. After countless events of trial and error, I finally got my label, and die-line to fit correctly on my bottle, and box respectively.

As you can see, this is my creative process, first thing's first I had to find my color scheme, Mine is made of basically the color scheme of a cow. I also created my logo, hand drawn. For what font I used, I first wrote out what my logo should look like, then i went in to find a font that resembles it the most.









In the end, I am greatly satisfied with how Vitamilk turned out.

emagine experience

eMAGINE

emagine was so much fun! I got to hang out with my friends, get to look at these amazing entries that were all made by just students! And not to mention, we got free food after the awards. All in all, this was a great celebration of students who have these fascinating talents, and I'm happy I was there to see it!!

Desktop and mobile statistics

      Over the years, the percentage of desktop sessions on our very own onwravens website has gone down 24% since the year 2013, all the while he percentage of mobile sessions has gone up about 20%, so as you can see, mobile browsers are being used more heavily, and is beginning to overthrow desktop. 

Bounce rate    

Bounce rate is the rate at which people enter a site, and leave without visiting other pages on the site, this is most used to determine a websites effectiveness, and appeal of a website. on the onwravens site the bounce rate has gone up only about 1% over the past 2 years, it can be estimated that the bounce rate is rising along with the percentage of mobile sessions.

  Above this text is a chart made in 2010 to try to predict what mobile and desktop user statistics in 2015, and while it's not exactly correct, it is vaguely right in its predictions.

Movie Poster

SUPER SMASH BROS. MELEE

 MOVIE POSTER

Process

 This poster took editing shapes, using transform to edit text, and some more. I started with an idea to incorporate the most recognized stage, and a symbol of the game itself, Battlefield. I started this by recreating the very simple and basic form of the stage by combining rectangles, and triangles, I only used 2 colors; black, and a deep scarlet, I then  wanted to re-create the main logo of the game, but with a more simplistic typeface. 

Goals

  I mostly stuck to what my original idea was in mind, but i was going to put a smaller smash symbol with just an M, and i was going to put it in the center of battlefield, and the text would have been on the top. I am glad with how it turned out, in fact, I like this design much more than the on I had planned.

Time Management

I could have gone a bit faster on this project, but I'm happy that i took my time on it, because my thought sat and fermented for a bit, so my judgement was better in terms of design, I asked for my peers' advice and what they thought, that helped a lot in the thought process, I also had to think in the mind of a consumer, or a third party so my own intentions don't get in the way of the appeal. 

Postcard

 These are my 3 postcards, as you can see, these have to do with my interests, some are stronger than others, I created 2 with my name, 1 scenery, and 1 of the things I love. Now the other, this post card is about my favorite character ever created, Phoenix Wright, as you can see Phoenix is VERY important to me, and I love him. I made it because its winter, and that reminds me 

of valentines day, and he will forever be my valentine :). With rest of the bunch, I just used my name, and used a number of clipping masks to input some of my favorite things. And with the scenery card, I really like how the image looks, and I can relate to it, because i think it represents me.

creative spheres

These are my 2 creative spheres, the top was in illustrator, the bottom was in photoshop. for the beach ball, i used the 3d tool and for the orb on the bottom I primarily highlighted the gradient tool, the draw attention to the colors, and styles. For the 3d ball, I had to map a string of colors onto a 3d shape, getting around it is hard at first, but when you do it a lot, you get used to it and are able to avoid most of the mistakes you made in the first run, but I made sure to do it a few times, and I got the hang of it. As for the gradient ball, I was focused on practicing my gradient skill and finding out new color combinations, I also got the hang of the radial gradient, and placing it, as for the plain in the background. I feel these 2 balls represent the differenced and similarities between the programs Photoshop, and Illustrator. As you can see they both have radial gradients to add a lighting affect, and they both involve trying to get the surface onto the object itself. However, In Photoshop, I made the ball 2d, but with a 3d-ish feel by adding the light, and with the Illustrator ball, it was more focused on giving the ball a surface and texture. These balls are the bridge between 2 useful programs.

Real or Hoax?

What was the project 

For this project, we had to dispel those nasty rumors floating on the internet through HTML. Before we started this project, we had to make the bare bones for the page layout, it looks like a more dull version of what you're seeing. And before we put in our content we had to create a color scheme through a website called colorschemedesigner, make sure it fits, then implement the colors to our website accordingly. Creating this took time, putting the content in its right place was difficult, and making sure I found everything was even harder because I missed a few things on my first try!

What exactly did I learn

 Throughout this project, I learned about embedding youtube links, I got to sharpen my skills on making a sidebar, and I got better at creating color schemes and figured out how to enter a date that will stay updated and got better at creating a menu and keeping track of 6 different pages. I also made an unordered list through code(which I have already learned before, but this was a good refresher!).

Final thoughts and feelings

  If I were to to this all over again, I would probably just change the color scheme, or I might change the font in some areas, but really that's it, I'm very proud and happy of how this turned out overall! Now the things I would do the same is I would probably stay in some similar area in regards of the color scheme, I would definitely keep my layout, the way I did things, and that doesn't leave anything else. I would say my biggest takeaway from this project would be creating and appropriately inputting my color scheme, I really liked doing that and I think It'll definitely come in handy in my other projects to come! Overall Im very happy with how this turned out, and I think that what I learned from this will most definitely be a skill I can utilize in any project I work on!
