The prompt I was first drawn to this prompt because I thought it would be easy. Make a poster, but have the text be grossly misrepresented by the image? Should be easy enough. But then I realized that I was having a hard time coming up with t...

I redid this assignment because the motto of my life is still “I Hate People” but I recreated the picture using a background of a sunset that I took some years ago, back in 2916 to be exact, when I was in the car driving around with my mom. It’s a really beautiful sunset picture …

I did the Contradiction Creation design assignment where you create some graphics where the motivational message contradicts that of the background mood/theme. Pretty much like an anti-motivational poster. I used Canva to make this. I used one of the photos they allow people to use for free, and added text to make it look like...

For this visual assignment, I literally sat, staring out my window while I worked and wished I was outside. The last few times I was off and planned to go anywhere, it was raining. We were instructed to create a contradicting graphic that was somewhat “anti-motivational”. I honestly hate being in the rain, but I […]

The “Contradiction Creation” assignment stood out to me because I thought it was funny. On Instagram and Twitter I am constantly seeing “inspiring’ images with quotes. And this week has been so cloudy and rainy I have been wishing for warmer weather. I can’t wait until it is spring time! I thought of the song “What A Wonderful […]

I usually try using contradictions as humor, and this assignment is perfect for that; create a glorious contradiction. I created this glorious image by finding a freely usable image of a rotting Coelacanth on Wikipedia, and used MS Paint to add text describing injecting the cold, rotting flesh and juicy preservatives as a great, crunchy […]

This assignment was actually very creative. I enjoyed the idea to have a beautiful picture but a depressing or negative quote. I wanted this to be related to the 1980s so I had a picture from 1980s California. Just look at the scenery. The palm trees, the blue sky, the still ocean, the cars parked […]

When You Need to Be Motivated to Be Un-Motivated

Because of my dry humor, I did not hesitate to do the Contradiction Creation design assignment. I love motivational quotes just as much as the next person, but sometimes they can be a little (no–very) cheesy, and what better to destroy all this positivity than with a dash of pessimistic realism? At first, I wanted […]

For my next assignment bank for this week, I chose to do one from the design assignments. I chose one where I had to find an inspirational background and then put an anti-motivational quote on top of it. I chose this one because honestly, I thought it was super funny. I picked a 80s themed background (to keep with the 80s theme of the class) and then chose a quote that I laughed at the most. I hope you are un-motived after reading this post 🙂

So for this anti-motivational poster design assignment I created an 80’s themed poster. For the background I used a vague scifi pink and purple plane. These are such common backgrounds for posters from the 80’s I feel like they’re used entirely as jokes now. What I liked about this assignment though is that it was … Continue reading Super motivational

This is the original link to the assignment. This assignment is worth 2 1/2 stars. I decided to add the 80s theme within this assignment. This assignment asked for me to create the graphic to convey a theme and the text convey the complete opposite. Obviously the graphics convey the 80s theme with the image of Micheal Jackson, the girl with the big hair, and the radio box and the text that reads “THE 2000’s” conveys modern day. If you look closely at the radio box, I added a small image of Micheal Jackson dancing in the speaker. I thought

You see them everywhere. Photos of beautiful landscapes or happy people cover with sayings like “Dream Big” and “Keep Calm and Carry On” or this: Motivational posters are supposed to give you a feeling of hope and inspire you to do great things. Well, maybe I don’t want to KEEP CALM! Sometimes these posters are … Continue reading "UNmotivated"

If you need a ridiculous quote that also makes a concerning amount of sense, InspiroBot is your…bot. I used a picture of water to contradict a quote about air (to breathe), but also that contains Earth, which is in itself a contradiction because Earth is mostly water. I just like the font.

Not really… Looks can be deceiving. When our program went to Oxford to spend the week, we had somewhat of a rough week. It was still a good experience, but Oxford has a sense and feeling about it that is unlike any place I have ever been. It is very cold and studious. It is …
