ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR

I think I'll have trouble learning how to use the pin tool after seeing the video above. I want to learn how to make logos in Illustrator instead than Picsart or Canva because I am a graphic designer. I've heard that using Illustrator to create logos will result in designs that are clear, fluid, and more powerful. To provide my clients with beautiful designs, this tool is really demanding and necessitates a high level of consistency. What I do believe, though, is that after I practice more and continue to pay attention to all the information I need to know, understanding all the curves, angles, and techniques will be beneficial.

Using types and fonts to deal with text is something that will definitely become simple, in my opinion, after seeing this video. For my business, being able to utilize fonts and texts effectively is crucial when creating flyers. It's important to know which font works best for the flyer and how to utilize it correctly. Because of the flyer he was working out, even as I was observing him step by step, I became curious in learning more. It was neat and professional. Since I specialize in creating flyers rather than logos for my business, it is very important to me to learn how to produce flyers in Adobe. I am creative when it comes to flyers of any kind. I've come to the realization that while I still adore logos, it's not my strongest suit.

I became aware during this video that I will have a struggle because I am not a good artist. He drew out what he wanted to design in the first segment of the video, and I am unable to execute that. As a result, I think that only the drawing portion will be a little difficult for me, but since I enjoy designing, the real screen transfer will be simpler. To get more specific, in the video, he applied layers to the image. I'm already familiar with layers in other design programs, so I should be able to pick up on that step quickly. If I only pay close attention, it seems really simple to add and block shadows.

BW to Color

The strong emotional connection this image embodies led to the choice to colorize it from black and white. It was taken at a special photo session with my mother and captures the love, enduring bond, and trust that exist between us. When the artwork was first created in black and white, it had depth and inspiration that never went out of style. However, adding color again gave it fresh vibrancy and made the scene happier and more cheery. The vivid colors not only made the scene more visually appealing but also reflected the warmth and excitement that filled our relationship, turning a lovely moment into a spectacular celebration of connection and love.

Business Card

Using InDesign, I was able to incorporate deep symbolism into each design to create personal business cards that truly reflected who I am. The first card represents the light I bring into people's lives; it has a captivating eye. My presence brings joy and support, much like the eye is a window to the soul. The vivid green color represents my name, Jaide, like the priceless Jade stone. The second card, with the initials "JG," pays tribute to my ancestry and my great-great-grandmother's name Georgiane. Finally, the third card's bright blue color represents my zodiac sign, Pisces, which is a sensitive and adaptable water sign. These cards were mostly created by hand using InDesign's rectangle tool to create the color backgrounds. In order to achieve the ideal colors and make sure every shade had the intended meaning, the Adobe Color Wheel was essential. Using the fill Gradient tool to provide depth and dimension, the second card's design was a particularly ...
