Course/Instructor: Comm 130, Bro. Stucki
Program(s) Tools: Adobe InDesign,
Illustrator, Photoshop
Objectives: Create a brochure advertisting the perks of
living in the state of Florida
Process: I used Photoshop’s magenetic lasso tool to
copy the shape of Florida, the outline of the picture I
took of the house, and to make the Ron Jon logo into a
.png image. I also used Photoshop to create the montage
images. I used Illustrator to make the surfboard shape, the
Mickey head, the surfboard, and the wineglass. I used In-
Design to compile everything and add background iamges

Project Title: Montage Design
Date: May 25, 2016
Program(s) Tools: Adobe Photoshop, Google
Translate
Objectives: Use blending to create a montage
that conveys a spiritual message
Process: I found the image of the Bible on image and
uploaded it to Photoshop where I applied a layer mask
and used the brush tool to make the image lighter and
with a slight blur. I uploaded the image of Christ, drew
a rough outline with the lasso tool and added feathering
to the image before ineserting it into the Bible picture. I
then added all of the text, adjusting the bevel/embossing

Project Title: HTML/CSS Site Design
Date: June 16, 2016
Program(s) Tools: Notepad ++
Objectives: Use HTML and CSS to code a web page for
a company
Process: I took the existing code provided by
Brother Stucki and created a link to the Valhalla Wear
logo I’d created earlier as well as the viking image I ob-
tained from Google. Using CSS styling, I adjusted the
fonts families, colors, size, positioning, and applied the
coloring to the divs on the page. I also used CSS to add
the background with fixed positioning

Project Title: Infographic
Date: June 9, 2016
Program(s) Tools: Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop
Objectives: Create an infographic that exlains a little bit
about the movie industry
Process: I used Photoshop’s magnetic lasso tool to trace
the outline of each letter in Hollywood and inserted the
.png files into an Illustrator project. Using illustrator, I
created the searchlights, the light beams, the Christmsa
tree, the roller coaster, the football, the gender symbols,
the pie graph, and the mountain backdrop by using the
pen tool. I then adjusted to text by adding drop shadows
and contrasting features

Project Title: Prezi Presentation
Date: May 12, 2016
Program(s) Tools: Prezi
Objectives: Create an aesthetically pleasing presentation
to explain some of the main
cultural differences between China, Korea,
and Japan
Process: I found the background image and all the
other images from various sources on Google. I arranged
them in a logically successive way to follow the outline
of the tutorial, causing the screen to zoom, tilt, and shift
with each slide

Project Title: Webpage Mockup
Date: June 22, 2016
Program(s) Tools: Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop
Objectives: Use Illustrator to create a
conceptual image of a web page for a business
Process: I first used Photoshop and used the magnetic
lasso tool to create the outlines of America a
nd China and to add the Chinese text to the logo I’d cre-
ated for another class. I used the pen tool in Illustrator
to create the four quadrants of the yin yang, merged the
shapes into a single image, and placed te ying yang as a
linked image for the background

Project Title: Business Card and Letterhead

Program(s) Tools: Adobe Illustrator
Objectives: Use Illustrator to design a logo for a
company’s letterhead and business cards
Process: I used the pen tool in Adobe Illustrator to
draw half the shape of the sword blade, which I copy and
pasted as a mirorr image and combined the two shapes
into a single object. I repeated the process for the hand-
guard, hilt, and pommel. I used the color dropper tool to
get match the colors from the HTML/CSS project. I
added three rectangles, colored them, and sent them to
the back to serve as a backdrop

Project Title: Magazine Cover
Date: May 5, 2016
Program(s) Tools: Adobe Photoshop
Objectives: Use Photoshop to create the
cover of a magazine
Process: I took a photo and uploaded to
Adobe Photoshop. I adjusted the brightness slightly to
make it easier to see. I used the pen tool to draw a ran-
dom shape, which I filled with an image of static that I
obtained from Google. I then added text and adjusted it
by adding drop shadows and increasing the stroke width
to the word “Rebel”

Project Title: Photodesign
Date: May 18, 2016
Program(s) Tools: Adobe Photoshop
Objectives: Use Photoshop to create an
inspirational message

text
