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 - Invite Poster

Poster Invite I selected this piece primarily because it reflects me working under pressure with no creative direction from the one requesting my assistance. This project was a direct request from my manager. Therefore, the challenge lied in producing his request on short notice. I agreed, in the midst of an extremely demanding time of the semester. Other challenges were fulfilling a request with no creative direction from him. The only direction provided was the commander’s favorite color and sport.  In spite of the lack, I answered the call of applying my newfound skills under pressure. I used Google Images “labeled for reuse with modification” tool to select the images for this flyer. From there I employed the skills acquired in class to select the images into the Photoshop document. Then for color scheme I thought of using the college’s color and mascot themes. And behold here was my finally result. Completing this invite showed I have what it takes to make poster unde...
