Magazine Cover
Description:
The assignment was to create a magazine cover with me as the subject, using
sound design principles.
Date:
September 28, 2016
Course/Instructor:
Comm 130
Sara Tranberg
Program(s)/Tools:
Adobe Illustrator
Adobe Photoshop
Adobe InDesign
Objectives:
Learn layouts, alignment, color, repetition, contrast
Process:
The process was first to read all about the FOCUS principles. Then I sketched
out what I wanted to have my magazine look like. Then I set up a shape map
on the computer to roughy lay out where my elements would go. Then I took
a thousand pictures of myself (most of them making the B reel) and laid out my
elements in a draft. I then got some critiques from class mates and my instruc-
tor, along with my family in person. I asked them to really be honest, it doesn’t
help me to play it safe; and they brought down the hammer! Then I made my
final adjustments to the margin alignment, changed some of the text size I felt
didn’t make a good impact. Removed some elements and generally cleaned
it all up. Below are my sketches and shape map that I used in my process
working towards my final layout.

Objectives:
Learn typography, contrast, design principles
Process:
I used Prezi in the past so I was vaguely familiar with it, and I remember it
being a bit of a pain to use. I was correct and it took me some time to watch
tutorials and get up to speed with the program. I thought about dirt bikes
because my son likes them and I was tinkering in AI on my background and
found the shape I liked. When I put them together I thought it looked like a
tire tread from a dirt bike. I tried to keep all the pictures in the same green tint
as the background, repeated the text colors, highlighting the key words in
the similar green as the background. I aligned the text to the image and kept
the font size the same throughout.

Program(s)/Tools:

Objectives:
Learn layouts, hierarchy, contrast, type
Process:
I liked the primary color scheme, red, yellow and blue. I took pictures of a
couple of lego pieces I saw the kids had laying around. I put the image of
Emmet into photoshop and pulled him from the background. I placed him
on a black background and he popped in contrast. I put some lines, I like
straight lines in my designs, and used the primary color scheme. Posting it to
facebook, I saw it was terrible. Everyone was nice to say the good parts, but
I knew the design was crap. I thought long and hard about what should be in
this image, then it hit me, legos! I needed to create a lego backdrop for him. I
went into AI and created the lego background from simple shapes and placed
the elements. I tweaked the text and added the swatches, which I though was
clever to do as little 2X1 lego blocks.

Sara Tranberg
Program(s)/Tools:
Adobe Photoshop
Objectives:
Learn filters, masking, clipping and layering
Process:
I started the process by looking at images and thinking of what I want to do. I
knew that I wanted to use the Christus picture and I have always loved the San
Diego temple, so that was easy too. I remember seeing an image of a temple in
the clouds and I thought it was neat so I wanted to replicate that idea. I grabbed
three images and I was lucky to find a great grass and sky picture as my base. I
blended in the temple to the clouds, then overlayed the Savior, blending Him
and also reducing his ‘fill’ so that He was see through. I also placed a dove in the
top left corner as well to signify His baptism. I wanted ‘dreamy’ looking text, soft
and flowing to imply soft and classy.

Process:
I jotted down some ideas. I created a back hoe picture, it was pretty sweet. I
found a font that I really liked on TK. I wanted to have graph paper as my back
ground on the letter head and I brought it along to the business cards. Every-
one liked the back hoe vs. the other ideas.

Process:
I started with the hardest part, coming up with a research subject. I chose my
iTunes. I went through my iTunes and gathered the data I thought was inter-
esting. I created my sketches and ended up using parts of both sketch ideas.
4. I created my icons and rough layout in AI. I took my feedback from class
and instructor and created my final version. I got rid of the column graph and
came up with more icons.

Objectives:
Learn to code in HTML and apply formatting using CSS.
Process:
I used the logo from my business logo project as my starting point. I wanted
to keep the same colors as in my logo but also expand on them so I found
complimentary colors using the Adobe color wheel website. I knew that I
wanted to find out a way to make my bullet points better than just numbers
or dots, so I Googled a way to get stars in the code. I knew that I wanted nav
links but since I don’t really have 4 other pages they are just for show. I should
have just relinked them to the home page. I wanted to add more to the page
itself, as my critique was “too much whitespace”, but if I added something I
didn’t like the layout so I went with “too much whitespace”.

Objectives:
Learn to make a wireframe.
Learn how to create a webpage on a grid
Learn how to apply FOCUS principles
Process:
I started with my logo and I wish I had varied the colors a little more, would
give me something more to work with. I wish that I could change that, but it
is what it is. I took that logo and wanted to have awesome pictures of homes
and design centers to sell the business and what they can do. I needed to vary
the heading rectangle colors, the red was just too much when put all over
the screen so I found a complimentary color on the Adobe color wheel and
went with it. I like the pop of color it brings. I used photoshop exclusively and
it’s annoying. I like AI better but I do like some of what photoshop can do for
images.
