myIPOD

For this project, we had to create our own iPod using Adobe Illustrator, showing 3 different angles and including the effect Extrude and Bevel. My final product shows the first angle, which was the front showing the screen of the ipod, the second angle was the side, and the last one was the back. We also had to create our own skin for the ipod, and mine showed a girl holding an umbrella under the rain on the back of the ipod. I used the elements of design by using the color black, which shows the the form of the ipod, and including a smooth texture on it. I used the principles of design by including gradation on the screen to make it more realistic, by making the ipod proportionate, and by having harmony. My final product also accurately represents my sketch.

mySPACE

In this project, we had to make a space around the lamp that we created in our previous project using Adobe Illustrator. We were able to put 3D effects again to create the room that the lamp is in. For my project, I placed my lamp in a typical room, on top of a bookshelf. In that room, I also created a picture frame, a plant, chair, rug, and a window. I used the elements of art by using lines to create the shape of the objects in my room, having value and color, and by showing texture on the flower pot and rug. I used the principles of design by including gradation to show where the light is coming from, as well as by having harmony and variety. This accurately represents my sketch, except that in here, I added the picture frame and the window curtains.

myLamp

For this project,we had to create our own unique lamps using adobe illustrator. We had to apply 3D effects to make our lamps look real. My final product shows a lamp that's designed as a person standing under a cloud. The lamp shade has symbols of clouds and rain, and i also included a symbol of a lightning that's about to strike the person. I used the elements of art by including color, which shows the form of the lamp,value, and a smooth texture. I used the elements of design by making my lamp balanced and proportional. This accurately represents my sketch, except for the lamp shade, which didn't turn out the way I planned it to, and the facial expression in the person, which I changed while working on this assignment.
