CD Cover, Prayer of the Heart prt2


Here is the back of the CD. I mostly made up the songs, and made up some of the artist. 

CD Cover, Prayer of the Heart prt1

At TCD, I had to create a CD cover, front and back. I decided to go the creative route and designed a soundtrack for a movie that I made up. I based the whole project of a picture a girl that I drew. All the Images where created in Illustrator, and then brought to gather in InDesign. I called the movie, Prayer of the Heart.  
     I entered this project in the Visual Communications Contest, and it received 2nd place for it. I also entered it into a bigger competition, and received 5th place. Which is a big deal.

Here is the front of the CD.

Yellow Brick Road


My last project in Photoshop at TCD, I had to take a picture of myself and insert it into a photograph. My teacher supplied the photographs for us and took the pictures of us to insert.  I choose one of the photographs of Wizard of Oz. I tried my best to make myself look like I was actually standing with Dorthy and the gang, but I feel that I wasn’t quite successful.  I know I need to learn more about Photoshop.

Butterfly Project 2


            Here are the butterflies colored. I originally colored it orange, than my teacher told me that the insect was actually blue, so I went back and colored it blue for another project. I worked hard on it, trying to make it look realistic. I think they both turned out real well. Good for my first try, I still have a lot to learn in Photoshop.    

Butterfly Project 1


Another picture that I had to scan and correct into photoshop was this butterfly picture, with the addition of coloring in. Here is the original picture before I corrected it. I am not going to upload the corrected version, just the colored versions, witch is next.

Corrected Images

            Here is one of my first assignments in Photoshop at TCD. I had to scan two negatives and one slid, and then corrected them in Photoshop. I corrected the color with color balance, and corrected the lighting with various methods.

My Logo


At TCD I had to make a logo for myself. I chose a pencil drawing on a piece of paper. I plain on redoing it and making it better. 

Where I Came From


WHERE I CAME FROM
My first start in Graphic Design is at Technology Center of DuPage, TCD. It’s a Technology school for high school students. I would go to school and take a bus to TCD for half the day, and then go back to school my regular classes. At TCD I studied Graphic Design and fell in love with it. And now I am studying it in college. I am telling you this because I’m going to be adding my best projects from TCD in here as well.
