Description: An event advertisement for a dance that benefits CharityVision.

Date:May 16, 2015

Course/Instructor:Comm 130 with Ben Pingel

Program(s)/tools:Microsoft Word and an HP Printer

Objectives:Scan a high resoulution image and use it to create a full bleed event ad in Microsoft Word.

Process:First I found the image that I wanted to use in GQ magazine and scanned it. Then I did some mockup drawings on different layouts for the title and body text. I figured the yellow that was on the original ad was the color that I wanted to use. I made sure that all of the body text and the title was lined up and that the body text contoured around the image with around a inch buffer. In order to contour the body text around the image I had to play with fonts, kerning and even different wording.

nDescription: A project showing a sample of my photography and photoshop skills.

Date:May 23, 2015


Program(s)/tools:Photoshop and Canon T3i

Objectives:Learn basic photography and photoshop skills. To use layers and groups in photoshop to add text on top of the photo.

Process:First I chose a color scheme and then I found items that had those colors. I then did a photoshoot in my home using the rule of thirds, good composition, and make sure there was enough lead room for the text. I then took my image and changed the colors slightly and worked with the levels and sharpness. After the image looked the way I wanted it I placed the texts and images on the page. I created the logo on the left side of the page by putting shapes together. After I doing so I made sure that the flier all tied in together and then resized and cut a few things to let it flow better.

Description: Three personal brand logos in color, greyscale and white on a color background.

Date:June 6, 2015


Program(s)/tools:Illustrator

Objectives:Create a unique logo in color, greyscale and black and white.

Process:First I sat down and drew out a ton of potential logos for a personal brand. After I chose a design I started in Illustrator with a few circles to make to create the tire and the hub. I then took the line segment tool and made the spokes that attaches to the outer rim to the hub. I then took a logo from my drafts and affixed it to the center of the rim. I used the line segment tool to put a dark accent line through the spokes. Then put the text on the tire just like real tires and used a font that is close to Bridgestones font. After finishing my design I changed the colors around to have a color, greyscale and white on color background.

Date: May 9, 2015


Program(s)/tools: InDesign

Objectives: Incorporate basic InDesign skills to create a flier.

Process: First I thought of my audience and message. After doing that I drew out four sketches on paper to figure out possible layouts of the flier. I took my favorite one and I created it in Adobe InDesign. I wanted to make sure that I had enough white space on the page while also using grey boxes to bring the readers eye from the top of the page to the bottom as they read the flier. The image, logo and text was provided.

Description: This montage is a combination of a picture of my family and the Manti Temple which is where my parents were married and an inspirational quote added onto there.

Date:May 30, 2015


Program(s)/tools:Photoshop

Objectives:Use masks to blend two images together with a spiritual theme.

Process:I first had to mask the majority of the background of the image of my family out and to add the back ground image onto the page. I brought my top image in and situated it on the bottom right of the image. Then I took my brush tool at 30% opacity with a black background to blend the background and the top image together. I progressively brought the opacity down to create a cleaner look with no hard lines. Then I found a quote from an LDS talk and found an appropriate font and added it to the top left side of the images with plenty of space on the edges.
