I started by sketching my ideas. I then went into Illustrator and created

three logos. I asked multiple people which one they liked best, and

Apply design principles to create a flier and learn skills in InDesign

The first step in creating this flier was to sketch ideas. Once I decided on
a sketch I went to InDesign. I created the layout and then added in the
text. Then I took the photo and edited it photo shop, and removed the
background so the people were cut out. I then added the photo to the
design and adjusted the color scheme.

A web page to showcase a logo I created

Programs Used:
TextWrangler

Objectives:
To learn HTML and CSS

Process:
I created this web page using TextWrangler. All of the information on the
page was coded through HTML. I then went in with CSS and made the
design of the web page match the logo. I embedded the script font seen
in the title and the subtitle. I also changed the opacity of the information so
you could see the image in the back. I also made the background of the
web page an image that I took.
