Senior Announcement


I chose to do a senior announcement because I felt like I could be more creative with it. When I looked them up on Google, a lot of girls used designs and patterns like the one I used on the bottom half. I used black, white, and pink, because they are my favorite colors and thought they would make the announcement stand out. I added all the details like when, where, what time, and the number to RSVP to, so it made it look real.

T-Shirt Contest

Since we can only use two main colors, I decided not to use one of them for the color of my t-shirt. I didn't want the colors to blend too much so I made it black. I thought that since the shirt was supposed to be about school spirit, I would put "Bulldog PRIDE." This is because I believe that part of having spirit is also having pride in your school. I realized that there are many schools that have the colors blue and yellow, or the bulldog is their mascot, so I put North Platte High School on the sleeves to distinguish what school it is from.

Information Graphic


My information was about the smartphone satisfaction ratings. The top seven phones were iPhone, Samsung, HTC, Motorola, LG, Nokia, and RIM. I needed a way to show the percentages so I thought it would be creative to make them loading apps on an iPhone.

Icons

First I made four apps for an iPhone. The first was called Confidence Booster, which will send you pop ups that boost your confidence throughout the day. Jokes Daily is an app where you get a new joke each day. Movie Download is for downloading movies fast so you can watch them wherever you go. Lastly, Puzzle Maker lets you use your own choice of picture and turn it into a puzzle, then you can solve it. Then I put them into an iPhone to make them look real.

Information Graphic Timeline



When we started this assignment we had to take notes of a slide show we saw about the time logos were made and what they were made for. I couldn't fit all mine on this but I got the most important ones on. My logos started in 1897 and ended in 1992. The arrows lead you to the next logo on the timeline. I had the arrows go by length so you would know which logo was next.

Ice Cream Parlor

First I had to make a menu for an ice cream parlor so that people would see it as soon as they walked in. I used the pictures of the ice cream to make the menu pop out more. Since the wall is turned, I had to make the text turned as well. Finally I put the picture into a real ice cream parlor so it looked real.

Before and After


After I chose the picture I wanted to use, we used Adobe Photo shop to edit it. I made the NPHS shadowed and in 3D. The shadow was black with a pink outline. Then one of the black lines from another layer wouldn't go away so I put underlines under the NPHS so it wouldn't show.

Environmental Graphic Design

For this project we had to have a partner and walk around the school finding pictures that represent environmental graphic design.  We took pictures of the lights because they are different than the other lights by hanging down. Everything else was either an odd shape or was a plane surface.
