Texas Global PPT

I was tasked to redesign a slideshow for a Texas Global lecture in which we were provided a new design template to follow on PowerPoint, here are some of the slides for comparison:

 

Lesson 1: Design History

I also worked with Poonum and Abriella on making standardized assets for imagery in this lesson. I came up with a PSD template that adds a dark overlay in the background while repeating the same image being used for each instance in order to add depth to the negative space. Here’s how they look:

Lesson 3: Typography

Finally, I think I am basically done with my section on Bezier Curves. Here are some snapshots of the progression of a letter transformed from text into a path and then edited through Bezier Curves:

Course Graphics – Style B

For this training, I was instructed to create a course graphic for the style B. Since this design allows you to add in an image, I decided to use one that is based on the black power movement. When I thought of this course I thought it would look good with the accent of orange. Overall, I believe this is a successful course graphic.

Slideshows in WordPress

This is an attempt to embed a slideshow into a WordPress post. Poonum, Abriella, and I have been working on Lesson 1: Introduction + Design History and we have compiled some assets for some of the most important movements and eras in graphic design history. The following are images from the Art Deco Movement.

This week I started by wrapping up the AI pixel art training and then started the project time estimates and Figma training. The project time estimates training was a very nontraditional training, and I enjoyed how it compelled me to think more deeply about project time estimates in a more objective kind of way. Beginning the Figma training Wednesday, I spent a lot of time going through tutorials to help me understand the program after my initial stab at a wireframe. Here’s a screenshot of part of what I have so far, but it’s still very much a work in progress.
