Style A & B Course Graphics

Earlier this month, I got to create course graphics for any course of my choosing so I chose AAS 310! This was my first time working with Adobe Photoshop, so it was definitely a struggle understanding the nooks and cranny at first, but once I got the hang of it, it was such a breeze! I’d love in the future to actually get to create some course graphics Professor Jin could use as I feel like I could’ve incorporated more of the course’s elements and themes!

Basic Training: History of Design

I did some more of my training checklist and one of my favorites was recreating this punk rock poster with a character from one of my favorite shows! A new feature of Photoshop I learned was its custom fonts and filters! It’s amazing how each time I use this software I learn something new!

STA Self-Portrait

Lastly, is my self portrait for the STA blog! To be honest, I always have a hard time doing any sort of self related pieces but it was actually really fun getting to create like my own avatar/persona! My first month as a Design STA has truly been so wonderful and I can’t wait to continue this journey ◝(ᵔᗜᵔ)◜!

STA Handbook Powerpoint

It had been awhile since I last worked on PowerPoint so it did take me awhile to adjust to the differences. But, it was super interesting figuring out how to build a PowerPoint from scratch since I normally work in Google Slides!

Using DropBox

Familiarizing myself with dropbox was definitely tricky too but I’m glad I got around to getting used to the application! One of my favorite dropbox activities was sharing this silly little dog ૮ ˶ˆ ﻌ ˆ˶ ა
