This was the type of project where you would be very lost and behind if you did not do your sketches. I was expected to produce 3 8.5in by 11in type face projects, monochromatic, free color, and cool or warm colors using Adobe Photoshop. My final projects contains my first name was in cool colors. My middle name was in free color. And last but not least my last name was in monochromatic.
Some Elements of Art and Principles of Design I used were contrast, color, balance, proportion, and line. I used contrast and color when I chose my color scheme for all three projects and when I had to decide which color would go where in each project. I used balance when I had to arrange the letter so that it wouldn’t just look like a bunch of letters but actually looked like a design. I used proportion by changing the sizes of my letters to fit the page without allowing one letter to be bigger than the other. I also used line when I overlapped my letters to produce a different direction for my viewers to look at
. My final projects somewhat resembled my sketch. For my last name resembles my sketch completely but my first and middle name were free hand because I didn’t like my sketches and felt like I could have done better on them.
