by Thomas Pulsifer Following Dradoye’s 4-star prompt, I’ve created a logo for my website. Inspired by the logos for various late-night talk shows, such as The Tonight Show, I decided to go with a similar style, resulting in the logo you see here. The font used is simple and unornate, making it very minimalist. IContinue reading "My Very Own Logo"

For my second design assignment, I created a business card for myself. This embodied our course theme in a way as well, perhaps inherently by the nature of the medium. Regardless, I wanted this card to be an engaging representation of me and my vocations. Here is the result: To create this, I worked in […]

Honestly, when I first hear the word graphic design, my mind automatically thinks of like interior designing or create some type of logos for companies. However, after reading this article, I understand that it is used as a strategy for problem solving. I have not really taken the time to really delve into graphic designing. …

For my first design assignment, I made a fake cereal box. I wanted to tie it into the course theme, so I decided, rather narcissistically, to base the cereal around myself and my identity. Here was the result: Inspired by Froot Loops and Cheerios, I had the core of my cereal be tiny toruses, going […]

This is my submission for the “Vogue Challenge” assignment where you create your own Vogue cover. I looked up examples of Vogue covers and used them to create mine to be similar. The assignment suggests using Times New Roman for the font, however, because I used Canva, there was no option for that. The most...

DESIGN BLITZ!

For my first Design Blitz photo, I focused on minimalism/use of space. This was exemplified by the front cover of Douglas Coupland’s 1995 novel Microserfs. This cover has a lot of white space, or I suppose I should say ‘grey space’. It presents the necessary information (the book title and author) and then allows for […]

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...

Based on Jameson Whipple’s 4.5 star prompt to redesign a company’s logo to resemble that of their main competitor, I decided to reinterpret Nintendo‘s logo in the style of SEGA. Arguably the most famous corporate rivalry in history, it’s interesting to see how the relationship between these two video game giants has evolved over theContinue reading "This Logo is a No-Go"
