This was my first project for Graphic Design, i had a picture in mind that didn't exactly look like this but it was first time in Adobe Illustrator messing around with all the different types of tools getting the hang of it.
In this project I had to explain the 5 Principles of Graphic Design and added small examples to each one. I used mostly every usable tool in Adobe Illustrator to complete this project.
For this project we had to in somewhat copy a logo with different colors. I decided to do the army logo as is caught my eye while while scrolling through hundreds of logos. This logo was mainly created with the pen tool in Adobe Illustrator.
In this project we had to explain all the different components of Typography. Fifteen in total and all pointing to their components. Created with Ai.
For this project we had to create a landscape, I didn't have much of an idea because I had been absent the class before but I managed to make something that i have no idea what it meant. I tried making it look bright and eye catching with different and bright colors.
We see typefaces everywhere, literally, and we had to find a typeface and do a bit of research on its history. I chose Charter because I like how it looks. I kept it simple due to that the font itself is simple.
In this project we had to make a quick flyer for the Casa grande holiday fair. I used the main christmas colors along with mixing in the Casa grande colors which are green and gold. It was a simple idea that i had in mind when i think of holiday season.
In this quick and simple project we simply needed to find some type of logo or painting and switch its normal colors to grayscale, for mine I decided to grayscale Diablo 3 which has been one of my favorite games recently.

For this project I took in the fact of being able to substitute someones face with another face, and hen we got the assignment of cutting/cropping from other photos into one. I call this Lucas Grande. I decided to copy lucas' face and replace it with everyone else's face in a group photo taken during color by class. I even decided to change each and every star from the american flag into lucas'.
For this project we were required to use 5 different animals and attempt to convert them into one. I chose an alligator, turtle, proboscis monkey, mountain goat, and a blue bird. I used the blur tool and merged the layers together to be able to make them kind look like 1 animal.
For this project I had to combine a selfie of me and a cool animal. I chose a jaguar because I just personally think they're one of the coolest animals. In the end I saw that the picture itself with the jaguar eye poking out of my own eye is spooky.
Ending the 1st semester , we had to make a cut out of a face into a pumpkin. We also had to make it looks like there was a candle inside the pumpkin.

This week we had a project to change the landscape of this image and add some extra details to make it look better. I changed the background sky so a better looking one. I added a sunset looking globe in the middle with a bit of a fade. I also titled it.
For this project we had to recreate or re-design the Casa grande high School HUB Page. I used the rectangle tool for all the outer edges even to make it look like it wrapping around. Text Tool for the buttons evenly spaced out and rectangle tool again for all the colors covering the Page. Click on the pic for a larger image.
In this project we were required to create a landscape and include our interests and hobbies. I added a band that I like, along with video games and objects that I like. Ex. money and Blizzard. I added my favorite type of car and social network sites. I added my favorite show and movie. I used the Eraser tool to remove all the edges and background of the original images.
For this project I had to make it seem like my name and a random logo of a monkey burnt into the wood. I used blend tools and managed to make the monkey look like it had already been burnt in and cooled down.
STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math. We had to add vector art to each letter according to its acronym.
We had to get a iphone case and add 3D test t it so that it could be 3D printed. I used photoshop with the 3rd workspace in order to get the 3dness' of the letters, and the template itself was 3d.
As one of our final project we had to create a 10 page book of history notes from throughout the year. I mainly used InDesign CS5 for most of the book. For the first 5 pages as illustrated above I used the simple column arrangement But for the rest I used much larger and wrapped words around the picture. I wasn't as much difficult as just time consuming keeping the principles of design in head.
