    uniE621 Poster Event - Mockup
    In Design & Layout, we were tasked to create a poster for an event. I chose a rock concert poster and the band I picked was SIM (Silence iz Mine) with their hit single "The Rumbling" as the focal point of the concert poster. The song made its way to #1 in the US hard rock music hits in 2022. With its music video reaching 28. M views on YouTube and has it as an opening song for the hit anime series "Attack on Titan" in the show's final season. Most of this is done in Photoshop, but the proudest thing I like about this poster is the picture behind the band members. It was a mistaken picture I took at my family's cabin, it's the stone walkway patio to the lake. My second achievement is the red and black gradient triangles in the corners, The red is on the top left and the black is on the bottom right. This is a small tribute to the band's music video.…
    uniE608 Kinetic Type Lyrics to "Build Our Machine"
    When working on the kinetic type was a blast in motion design. I picked lyrics because I had seen music lyrics videos on YouTube, and I wanted to challenge myself. The song I've chosen is called "Build Our Machine" by DAGames. It's a fast, upbeat pace song that would leave the singer breathless if they don't steady their vocal cords. The song is a tribute to a video game titled "Bendy and the Ink Machine" It's a jump scare survival game, played in first-person point of view in an abandoned animation studio of 1930s cartoons where the owner Joey Drew tries to bring the cartoons to life through dark magic. The fonts are downloaded from DAFont.com, after searching for fonts that are very much like the ones in the game. Even the font that is on this page is the same as in the game.

    uniE621 Move Out Loud Postcard
    I did a booklet for Move Out Loud Dance Studio, along with creating two postcards, an email design, and buttons. As someone who has taken ten years of ballet, this was a fantastic project to work on. I used ink splatters (and added colors to them in Photoshop) to show movement because I fantasized about a dream I had where I dipped my feet into pain and danced on a huge canvas to show my movement as I painted with my dancing. I used silhouettes of dancers because dancing tells a story.…
    uniE621 National Pancake Day Logo
    I was given an assignment to create a logo for National Pancake Day. Instead of making traditional American pancakes, I wanted to share different types of pancakes for everyone to celebrate National Pancake Day. I created three different types of pancakes. A jiggle/fluffy pancake, the Swedish roll-up pancake (my personal family favorite), and the traditional American pancake.…
