Project 6 – iPad Article Final
_ In this project, the reader understands the transition of text as image to the conventional text layout. By doing this, the reader begins understanding the general idea of the story where the important words are throw at them but then must actually read the text to understand the story. As the article becomes less graphic, the legibility becomes appropriate and these together create a composition where chaos and order meet. It is up to the reader to determine which stage has the best balance. _

OFFENSIVE PLAY
For this project, I decided to write about the article which explores the nature of injuries in football. I am an avid football fan and so this article caught my attention immediately. I would like to explore the idea of injury and how I can apply that to color. I will include bright colors that evoke the motif of pain and human toil in football
Project 5 | Information Visualization
Creating a graphic that demonstrates the relationship between happiness, a.d.d., sleepiness, and hunger throughout the night in studio. Happiness and A.D.D correspond together and sleepiness and hunger do the same. The use of icons help the reader understand the activity throughout the night. The sketchy look with the sketchbook binding help create an artsy graphic that is appealing.

4a. Color & everything before: Make 4 final variations. Print out all 4. Mount on to black board.
Start with a complete solution to one of the previous nine exercises; explore how color can emphasize or complement the typography. Consider color in shapes behind the type; color in the type; color in limited amounts; color all over the piece; try analogous color palette with one contrasting hue, complimentary colors, try a strong palette, an ugly palette, a cool palette, a loud palette etc. After a few explorations with one idea, move to another idea and explore some more. The goal is wide and brave exploration, keeping in mind, of course, that communication is still your goal!
Project 4 | Part 3
3a. Size change & typographic weight: Make 5 variations
Select any two weights (Helvetica Neue light, roman, medium, bold).
Use a change of point size to emphasize hierarchical differences.
You may change the order of the information, if you wish.
Horizontal (also called margin) shifts and linespacing are optional.
This is your call.
Think carefully.
3b. Graphic elements: rules, bullets, geometric shape: Make 5 variations
Start with a complete solution to one of the previous eight steps.
Add any of these graphic elements: rules (your choice of weight), bullets (dots, your choice of size and weight), and geometric shapes.
Stay with black, white and values of grey (% of black) in your graphic elements, bullets, rules and type.
Again, this is your call. Try a range of starting points, not just one. Be adventurous

Project 3 | Final
__ For this assignment we were to create a composition that portrays a given word and one that does not. Given the word modern, I used a very modern geometric sans serif (Century Gothic) and matched it with a serif font (Century) that would complement it appropriately to the eye. The underscore adds a orthogonal element to it this gives it an extra modern feel. On the right, I used an old fashion type face (Gothic E) and used colors that were used a lot in the medieval times, a darker red on a tan color. __
Project 2 | Final
__ I organized the terms in the order of comfort, order, tension, playful, and congestion to create a composition that deteriorates from the unity of squares in an orthogonal way into a more chaotic variation of squares.The use of color also changes from a uniform palette into a variety of color. Together, the transformation of composition and color makes your eye go from focusing on the whole square to focusing on the individual squares in the image. __
