This is my quote design. The quote is  from Albert Einstein and it says "Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new." The elements and principles of design that influenced my work are shape, direction, size, color, value, balance, and harmony. The assignment was to make a typography poster with a historical quote. I made it my own by changing the font, colors, and size of certain words, and by making a clipping mask of a picture of Albert Einstein with the text e=mc². It took a lot of planning while designing this. I didn't even end up using the first idea I had. I wasn't sure if I wanted the entire poster to be a clipping mask, so I decided only a little part of it should be. Deciding how to put the text in the quote took a lot of experimenting and changing. I chose the picture of Albert Einstein because it looked like he was thinking. 

Emotion Words

These are my four emotion words. The emotions I chose are scared, bored, silly, and stressed. The way a  line is drawn affects the mood of a design because the type of line and color gives it a certain feeling. In my scared design, I wrote the word in thin, shaky, zig zag lines and used scary colors. I wrote the word a bunch of times then overlapped them. In my bored design, I used black and white, thick, boring straight lines and arranged them above each other. This new knowledge can influence my future designs because now whenever I include words in my designs, I can make them look more interesting. 

Logo Designs

These are my two logo designs. The one on the left is a cupcake with my initials in the negative space of the pink part, and the one on the right is how I re-created the Sanrio logo. The cupcake design is a good example of line, shape, color, negative space, and repetition. The assignment for the design was to create a logo using your name or initials. I made it my own by drawing a cupcake, then making my initials fit into it. To make it, I first sketched it out on paper, then created it on Adobe Illustrator. I mainly used the line and pencil tool. The copy and paste tool was also helpful for making the sprinkles.
