Reflection

Graphic Design

This graphic design class was a real eye opener for me.  Putting more time towards my work could have been useful but now that’s it’s the end of the year its to later for that.  I found out that I love computer graphics just not when its for a grade.  That is where I struggled a little bit in this class.  Also the fact that I am more used to 3D design and different programs, learning a whole bunch of new ones didn’t help either.  For this final project I felt that I worked very efficiently I didn’t wait till last minute I had my idea in my head and went with it.  Yes I had some bumps along the way and something’s didn’t work out the way I planned but sometimes that’s the way the cookie crumbles.  My book is short sweet and to the point.  I felt it was extremely hard to pick scenes out of like a five-paragraph excerpt of and amazing book and movie.  I worked extremely hard on the details between some of my main figures because I know I would be using them more then once.  So now back to my work that I have done thorough out this semester.  You know and I have a great interest and love the works of Sheppard Fairy. But doing my own work was really hard.  I think my favorite piece f work that I did in this class was when we had to create our own font. That was when I used my best friend to spell the letters with his hand and made t interesting by using a different outfit, from shirt, glasses and had to make the font more interesting. I also liked the magazine cover.  But all in all I think I’ve learned a lot of new things by taking this class and have perfected my old abilities.
