Halloween Poster

In my Halloween poster, I used the contrast of the different colors of orange and the repetition of the font chiller. I used alignment to place my bats and tombstones and I spaced them out to add depth.

Halloween Text

As I created this project, one of the new techniques I learned was adding an inner glow to the letters. I also learned how to freely distort objects in order to add a 3D effect.

Pollution Advertisement

For this advertisement project, I used bold letters and regular letter to not only add contrast to the overall design, but also to create emphasis and show order of importance. I used the element of line to add alignment and break up space to make the words easier to read. I used the repetition of a few fonts because it catches the eye and adds a consistent look. Lastly, I used the font, chiller, on the word "dirty" to help add a visual representation.

Rocky Text


The hardest step for me on this project was creating the fur. The easiest stop was typing the letters that I needed for this project.

Lyric Typography

The song lyrics I choose are from a song by The Neighbourhood called Sweater Weather. The song is about love and that is the reason behind my color choice. I used the color purple for my letters because purple can symbolize romance. I choose light blue as the background because it represents peace, truth and softness. Lastly, I choose the color white to outline my letters to add simplicity and brighten up the image. I also used many other elements when creating this image. I used the element of line to keep order and add a more simplistic appearance. In order to emphasize certain words, I used different fonts and different font sizes. The use of different fonts also catches the readers attention and makes the overall image more appealing. I drew a cloud with the pen tool to catch the readers attention and to help the reader visualize the action. I choose to keep all my words horizontal because I thought it would be easier to read and understand. The horizontal alignment also contrasts to the vertical set up of the page. I kept the words in a rectangular shape because it makes them easier to read when compared to having the words scattered across the page. Overall, I am happy with the way my image turned out and I don't think there is anything I would want to change.
