Adobe Illustrator - Infographic

ADOBE Illustrator – Info-graphic



The theme of this piece is highlighting the services public safety offers to our campus community. I wanted to produce a quick and easy illustration of the services we provide. In order to produce such an illustration, I knew I needed to create a decent amount of graphics to visually convey our services. Thinking about what graphics would be most fitting was the initial challenge. As I knew I would need to demonstrate our services in a clear and concise manner. The next challenge was figuring out how I would create the illustrations, knowing that I lack creativity and I’m not that familiar with the tools in illustrator. As a result, I searched for relevant images to help with the conceptualization aspect. Once I was able to visualize the service, I began playing around with the tools to formulate the creation of each graphic.  Some pieces were extremely difficult to create. The lower body of the golf cart and the actual cables for the jumper box were my greatest challenges. The pen tool is tricky to us. I had to go back several times and maneuver the anchor points to make it look like the body of a golf cart. And it took me stumbling upon the curvature tool to add the cables to the box. I was trying all sorts of tools and I’m still not satisfied although the curvature tool helped me produce the closest look I was going for.

Adobe Photoshop - Uniform Infographic

Uniform Info-graphic  This artifact is selected because it shows some of my Photoshop competencies. The image was created as an info-graphic to highlight uniform codes for aides.

Adobe Photoshop - Business Card

Business Card This Photoshop selection is a business card I created for my cousin. As a DIY type of lady, I wanted to help her get her name out there. So I decided to take a stab at learning how to make a business card in Photoshop.  I sought out a written tutorial on line on how to select the correct width and height. The tutorial also instructed me on how to work within guides while developing the card. Once again my creativity or lack thereof was warranted, as my cousin didn’t have a vision for her business card. Producing this card challenged my creativity. Enhancing simplicity was my approach in creating this card. I learned how to enhance simplicity by using various effects and color tools. My aim was to produce a card that would personify her talents and capture the eye. This project shows I can develop my skills by utilizing tutorials and experimenting with different tools to create a custom business card.    PORTFOLIUM URL:   https://portfolium...
