Blog Evaluation (whole unit) - Unit 19 Task 4B

During the second semester we had to start a blog on blogger. The first task was to create an infographic talking about raster and vector images, pixels, bit depths, colour space, image capture and image optimizing.

This was the final product for the task. I was very happy with the result. I tried to aim for a simplistic design while still giving out a lot of information. All in all I was very happy with the result.

I decided to change my banner three times including layouts. The banners where a result of experimenting using Photoshop and a small inside joke for the last one.












For task three we had to create three banners for a mediacast blog. This was rather challenging for me as I tried my best to keep the banners with a media theme. I didn't quite like the final result as I felt I didn't quite accomplish what I set out to do.

As part of task three we also had to create three posters. I again aimed for a simplistic design with as little wording as possible while still conveying all the information needed.

The poster on the left is the best one in my opinion and the one I'm most happy with.

This unit was quite interesting. I learned the basics of Photoshop and Illustrator and with further experimenting got pretty good in both of them. I acquired knowledge in web design which is an important tool to have especially if you want to create a website to advertise yourself and put upload work on it.

One thing I wish to remark on is that I wish the unit delved deeper into Photoshop and Illustrator as you are limited to the things you can create without learning advanced techniques.
