I was signed to design an invitation for Quality Seafood Market. So, I decided to design a digital one, so people can find it on social media.

This book is about three little girls who live in the same neighborhood and have different background and religions. It shows how difficult for them to get their needs such as, buying their special foods, like halal food.

In this project we were asked to explore the neighborhood and come up with three GIFS that shows what our topics are about.

when I stared working on the project I was thinking to do a book about luxury restaurants and local ones. But, later on, I changed.

This app  helps you to find events that match your interested and show you more events that related to your events sections and invite your friends, plus add the event to your calendar.

This project was not an easy one for me. Last semester I had a bad experience using InDesign. I had to design a book for my visual studies class and the result was not like what I wanted to be. From the two experiences, the last one and this mastery project one, I have noticed that I don’t have enough experience using InDesign and I always have a difficult time choosing the colors, fonts, size of book. In the two projects I end up with bad choices.
So I thought that using illustrator might help me to come over these worries. But, I was wrong because it was so difficult to create a book with illustrator.

This is my first version of the book “ I used illustrator for this one”

For my second version, I have decided to give myself another chance and try to use InDesign this time. I chose a very simple design just to get using the app. But, unfortunately I ended up with a bad result. I didn’t like the colors of the book neither the design and the size. Also, I did not like the layout of the texts. In addition, I felt like I don’t want to meet with Tuan and have a desiccation in a thing that I’m already not satisfied with it at all. My second book looked so bad!

This is my second version of the book

We had the final critique on Thursday before the final week. So, I had four days to work and study for this class and my other classes before the finals. I had to make all the changes that I want before I meet Tuan. I opened the book’s file and I looked at the tings that I wanted to change but I felt like “ this is not going to work” my book looks so bad. So, I decided to give myself another chance and restart working on the project from the beginning. I kept the idea of connection, in my second version I chose circles and a line to present connection. But, for the third one I chose a tree.
Also, one of the things that I didn’t like in my second book that used many colors and it looked very colorful, I thought it’s would look good if I used bright colors instead of using dark blue as example. But it looked too much. So, for the third version I tried to use only three colors and I think It looks much better now. In addition, the second version had about 30 pages because the way that I layout pages and also because it was small. So I changed the size of the book and they way those pages are layout.

In conclusion, I still feel the final draft needs some more work. But, in general it looks much better than the first and the second versions.

 

I spent a great deal of time working and learning for this project. My first experience with after affect wasn’t that easy. So, this time I made sure that I spend enough time learning and practicing how to use each features in the app. For this project I focused  more about how to move icons and the colors that I should use and learn new things such as how to use “mask”.

I want me design mark to reflect my experience in my Boardwalk. I chose the shoes shape because I saw many people go their to take a walk. And I used neon colors because a lot of sport clothes use these kind of colors. The small dotes present the lights’ building and stars in the sky.

It was interesting how can you have a different experience in one place. I went to Boardwalk many times in different times and each time I went there I discovered new things. Collecting information about one place by using 4 different methods was a interesting  experience because each time you use a new method you put yourself in new point of view.

this is the last project for Image methodology class. After we finished all of the projects we were asked to design a portfolio app by using after effect that shows two of our projects that we did for this class. It was a new and stressful experience for me, because I had no chance before this interface lesson project to work with after effect. The time that we had to learn how to use the app and to come up with a design was too short and it was during finals. Developing final results took me very long time. I had no idea about how each feature work or how should I correct my mistakes. Furthermore, the app crashed twice while I was working on! The night before the due date was so stressful. In the end I turned in the assignment but it was not look the way that I wanted to be. The elements movements did not work as I wanted, and the design looked different than what I had in my mind.
