The goal of this project was to design an image that shows the experience of eating a meal. The 5 senses were used to describe my experience of eating breakfast. For each sense I used three different sensations. The difficulty in this project was visually recreating sensations of senses that do not involve sight. In some instances, I used abstract illustrations to represent sensation. Color, shape, and line were important in making the abstract images. Using Adobe Illustrator, I pieced together my project using new techniques.

The goal of this project was to create a map that showed my personal journey from home to University. I used Adobe Illustrator to create the map. I made design decisions during the creative process to highlight certain parts of the path to University such as the magnifying bubbles, bright colors, and illustrations. I experimented with using Illustrator patterns to add aesthetic interest and to help distinguish between zones of the map.

The goal of this project was to design and make a booklet that included content provided by the instructor. The booklet needed to have 2 typefaces, a pull quote, and saddle stitching. Indesign was used to make the booklet. I leaned about line spacing, appropriate text sizing, layouts, grids, and a lot more. I learned new terminology such as leading, rag, rivers and windows. I made sure to keep the booklet within a reasonable page count. I experimented with different layouts to help me compare different approaches. I felt my end design succeeded in my intent.
