    DesignBlitz

    by
    I think that this is a valid type of typography. As you can see in the picture, the restaurant has in big, bold font that they are excited for us to be there. Then, in a much smaller font, they tell us that we can only be there for about 90 minutes then we will …

    Who was the true hero?

    by

    I chose to do the assignment True Lies from the assignment bank. This assignment is meant to glorify the heroism of a character. I chose to do this as a ranking of characters in Lord of the Rings. The graphic below glorifies the character I feel was most heroic, and well… slanders on my least […]

    Kawaii or Die

    by
    Assignment For my first Design Assignment of #ds106 week 6, I chose Contradiction Creation. Summary: Create some sort of graphic. Design the overall graphic to convey some sort of feeling or theme, but then have text saying something completely contradictory to the theme or feeling. Sort of like one of those old anti-motivational posters, but […]

    Skies of Blue on a cloudy day… Contradiction Creation

    by
    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 […]

    Woodpecker

    by
    March 1, 2021. I spotted this very large and healthy woodpecker along the Nation River on my daily walk. Today was a good day: I started by giving back-to-back presentations to different groups, both of which went well, then I successfully ran a gRSSho...

    Favorite Movie Quote

    by
    This is one of my favorite movies ever. This quote just makes it 10 times better. I remember seeing this movie for the first time and being blown away by after the character said this especially in the context that he was speaking in. It was the only quote that came to mind when I …

    Event Poster

    by
    I knew what I wanted to design the second I read the assignment’s description. This is an actual event that my club is having next week to celebrate Women’s History Month. We are watching this documentary that discusses how WOC are viewed in the media. If you or anyone you know is interested you have …

    Magazine Cover

    by
    I think that this is so cute!!! I know you all are probably tired of seeing SZA’s beautiful face, but I’m not. This is not a wedding dress. She wore it to the Oscar’s one year. If I had a magazine she would be on the cover anyway so I decided to also use this …

    Sports Poster

    by
    I do not watch sports AT ALL so I do not have a favorite team. But I remember growing up and hearing about this team for the first time. I thought that Nuggets stood for chicken nuggets and would go around telling people that they were my favorite basketball team solely for that reason. I …

    DesignBlitz!

    by
    Much like our photoblitzer a few weeks ago, we were tasked with creating a designblitz this week! The goal was to find pieces of design that demonstrates different design principals. I found all of these in my home since we’re still in a pandemic. I realized that vinyl records actually demonstrate a lot of these […]

    Quote Gallery

    by

    This assignment required me to pick a movie quote and edit it over and image. I went through this one really quick, so I made multiple! I used the collage maker app on my phone (was having computer problems) and came up with these! The video of how I worked in the collage maker is […]

    Thoughts on Design

    by
    Like sound last week, design is something I have very little experience in. Design is so important and it was interesting to learn more about it from the videos and readings. I really enjoyed watching the video on the design of movie posters. I actually recently took a trip to Books-a-Million with some friends and […]

    The Subdivision

    by
    February 28, 2021. This was taken from my walk today, looking across the tracks at the new subdivision. When we moved here this was all forest. Obviously I preferred the forest, but we still live in a rural area just a short walk from other forests and...

    RM’s Design Thoughts

    by
    When I started reading the original Brain Pickings post for this week, I quickly realized how easy it would be to fall down many different rabbit holes. Actually, the first time I was trying to read through it, I ended up on some article about Freud and his work. This was interesting to me (being…

    Ferris Bueller Poster Design Thoughts

    by
    I had never thought much about design in terms of movie posters and book covers before. The video “Movie Poster Expert Explains Color Schemes” was really interesting and made me look at movie posters differently now.  I learned that red and white movie poster designs are used for comedies.  One of my favorites, “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” follows […]
