Semester Reflection
Throughout this semester of graphic design I was able to learn a lot of new techniques and ways to make different collages and fonts to make works of art. I love this class with a passion and would love to go to college to become a graphic designer. I enjoyed working with photoshop as well as illustrator. If there was anything i would like to learn it would be how to photoshop a person within a picture and make them look different. They do this mostly in magazines to change the way the person looks. My favorite assignment was the assignment #8 i worked extra hard on that one! I cant wait until the second semester of this class.
Review Week 17
From reading the article on "Who shot the serif" I was able to learn a lot of different things. I received a better understanding of both san serifs and serifs. I was able to understand the difference between the two which before reading this article i did not have an understanding of this. This Article was very informative.
