Card 1 Card 2 Card 3 Business Cards         These are personal business card designs used to represent myself. This was the created using InDesign based off of my personal logo. I created the personal logo in an earlier project and, as it represents myself, it is fit for a card which is supposed to represent myself professionally. The colors were chosen to compliment the logo. I attempted to create a minimalistic design which were still visually interesting. This was my first real project with InDesign and it is less intimidating than it appears. Even though I am new to InDesign and to graphic design in general, but I am satisfied with how this came out.

  Somewhere         In this project, I took a frame from Baby Driver and editing myself into it. I used photoshop to do so using its masking tools. Because the lighting and color grading was not a perfect replica, I edited how I looked to better match the shot. Baby Driver was chosen because I think it is a film with just generally fascinating visual and audio design, so I keep coming back to it. I also included the tag containing my logo as a 'tattoo' on my neck. Overall, I think I did a good job, even though there are some imperfections. Original Film Shot Original Image of Myself

Color Versions               For this assignment, I took a color image, turned it to grayscale, and then recolored it. I did this all in photoshop by masking out each of the individual elements and putting each on its own layer. By coloring each of those layers, I could give each aspect its own color. I used color.adobe.com to create the color pallets to find color choices which I enjoyed. While my masking job could be better in some areas, I am overall pleased with the results, given my relative unfamiliarity with Photoshop. Original Image  

  Logo Tag               For this assignment I created a tag, as if it were spray painted, using my logo. I used photoshop to layer the assets together using masks and blending tools. I then used this to create a preset for the brush tool so that I could use it again later. In a separate file, I used this brush to create the simple art piece shown below.
