My Type Assignment

Once more we are working with Adobe InDesign. For the most part we where told to take words and replace letters with objects related to the word or phrase. This first one however was to take a letter fill in its 'hole' and make a new one with another object turned white.

The next three images where made by replacing letters and words with images. The first one was just an image that related to the word, the second was an image of the word its self, the third an entire word with an image that fit in the sentence.

























































This next image designed to replicate the word with the word its self.




















 This next one was designed to make an object that interacts with its word.




















This last one was designed to make a word out of at least two images. I went with movie star.

Recently we have been learning how to use Adobe InDesign. And for the most part it has been an interesting experience.  This first image however wasn't made in InDesign, it was made in Adobe Photoshop. I took the select tool and slightly shifted sections to make it look like the work was shaking.

The rest of the images where made with InDesign. This one was made taking letters and arranging them in the shape of a cow.

This next image was made forcing the text to follow a line drawn with the pen tool in InDesign.

Going up

This image was made by drawing an image then forcing the text to wrap around the image. I was in a Fallout mood.

This image was made by taking an emoji turning it and placing it in the sentence after I made a space for it.

Selecting Text in Adobe InDesign

Ok so I let my dislike for adobe get to me a little. But this assignment is about how different clicks can can effect the selection of text. The number of clicks will change how much it selects and when you drag it selects more text based on how many clicks you used.

One click will place the select curser and then the one click drag will select more text on a single letter base. Two clicks will select on a whole word bases, three will select on a line bases, four will select on a paragraph bases and 5 selects everything.

Logo Design and Layout Stages

So I was asked to make a personal Logo for myself. It had some stipulations and because it was for me and for grading the Logo had two audiences, My teacher and myself.

so the Logo is supposed to incorporate the principals of Gestalt, at least two initials, and be shapes rather then lines. Now I'm not going to lie I am very bad at thinking in Gestalt but I did finally wrap my head around it and make something good. I started with making several thumbnails, narrowed it down to two turning them into rough drafts, then I selected one and made it a final version.

So in two sentences: Use the elements of design and Gestalt to make a personal Logo that incorporates a part of yourself and three of your initials. Show all the steps.

Bottom line: Make Logo that follows all the steps of design and incorporate Gestalt.
