My Personal Brochure
This is my personal brochure that I had to create in Mr.Adams Graphics 1 class. The input factors that you needed to know in order to create this project is knowing how to use Photoshop, Publisher, and many tools within those two Programs. All of the pictures that are in my personal brochure I somehow modified using Adobe Photoshop. The brochure itself was created on Microsoft Publisher. Those are the input factors for this project. My first step was that Mr. Adams took a picture of me in class. I then would go on that picture and modify it on photoshop. I made myself to look like I am at the Boston Bruins game. My next step was to create a personal brochure about what I am or want to be and why people should pick me to do there job. I created myself to be a hockey player that is a phenomenal player who is being drafted as the top pick at only 16. I used word art which I also modified with photoshop and then I created it on my own. My final output was that it was a personal brochure that uses several different colors, word art, photoshop, etc. It has a lot of graphical detail in it. I didn't get much feedback on this project. I learned A LOT about photoshop. I now know how to use it, I never knew before. I even learned some things that are like shortcuts on photoshop. Overall, I believe this project was a success.
My Personal CD Cover
My next project in Mr. Adam's Graphics 1 class was to create a CD cover for a song of my choice. I chose Lose Yourself by Eminem because it is my hockey team’s warm-up song. This is the song my team skates out to. The cover says Somerset Hockey because that is what I based this song off of. The input factors for this project were to know how to use photoshop, we had to find pictures that represented our song. We could not put the artist of the song or the artist’s name in the CD cover. What I did was I used word-art to write Somerset Hockey and I found the picture of the crossed hockey sticks and I made all of those one picture and I photoshopped it and added color. I then designed the back of the cover with a google image and photoshopped it. I learned how to create a CD cover during this project.
Whiter Shade of Pale
This project was basically the same except that Mr. Adam’s gave us a song to use instead of us chosing. I got the song Whiter Shade of Pale by Procul Harum. You need to know how to use Microsoft Publisher and Adobe Photoshop. You need pictures that go along/represent your song. I used white animals in my cover. I also put the lyrics on the back. You also have to create a logo and a production company. I learned the same thing as I did in the last cover project and that was to create a CD cover. If I was to do this again I would probably do the same thing. For this project I like what I did with the cover and back.
