Texas Politics Progress

January 22, 2021 By Megan Fletcher

Texas Politics Progress

I’m making a lot of — you guessed it — progress with the graphics for the TXP’s speaker series graphic suite! The Texas Politics Project’s goal is to engage and educate regular Texans in state politics, beyond the occasional scandal in the press. They hold an annual Speaker Series to facilitate this. For TXP, I used colors scraped from their site and logo and fonts that were academic and professional, yet crisp. If you’re wondering, the cowboy in the background isn’t anyone in particular, just a Texas Ranger statue.

Updates

January 5, 2021 By Megan Fletcher

What I’ve been up to recently

I’ve been busy this week! Yesterday, I updated the Diversity & Inclusion CLIO course’s flip cards to have “headlines” on the answers.

I also got my anti-racism resources banner approved for the history department! You can see it in a post below. Other than that, I’ve been working with Ingrid and Cristina to copy over content from old PowerPoints for HIS 315K. I learned some new things about the Puritans in the process! I also made an intro slide for CH 302C Principles of Chemistry II for an old professor of mine, Dr. Biberdorf (she was great in ChemBridge!) so that the audio department can work with it.

What a week!

D&I training

Diversity & Inclusion CLIO training

Thuy, De’sha, and I have been working on a CLIO course for the university’s diversity and inclusion training. I’ve been putting in the content for page 3, Legal Requirements, this week. I’ve put the CSS flip cards with each question, answer, and audio embed into a CSS flex box layout, so it’ll be responsive to smaller screens — like cell phones — and larger screens, like iMacs.

Anti-Racism Resources Banner

Anti-Racism Resources Banner

I got started on a banner for the history department’s website last week! I took photos from the client, set them next to each other in Photoshop, then added a blue overlay. I used orange text with a drop shadow and rectangles to evenly “space” the photos out.

Pixel Art

Pixel Art

I finished up my pixel art training today! It was nice to take a short break from course graphics and code to make something ~artsy~. Here’s my reference image and the pixel art that I came up with!

Weekly Recap

Weekly Recap

At the beginning of the week, Maddy helped me hash out what was going wrong with the Canvas callout buttons’ color. Turns out, the color profiles of PNGs and JPGs are slightly different, and exporting all other Canvas assets as PNGs seemed to do the trick.

Poonum and I are reworking the InDesign Part II training to be more explicit with expectations and design best practices.

I also got started on the pixel art training! It’s super fun so far.
