Graphic Design Projects

Photoshop Basics

Kaylee Roeben - Photoshop Basics

For me, This was the most effective project assigned in the first semester of Graphic Design. By accomplishing this project I was able to lean how to use Photoshop and then build on it through each project.

My Name Is

Kaylee Roeben - My Name Is

This was by far the most difficult project for me. However, I learned so much while doing this project. It was very tough but was super fun. I wish I was able to make my name not so blurry but overall, I still think it looks good.

Fish Out Of Water

Kaylee Roeben - Fish out of Water

I loved making this project because it was very unusual, and this is the project where I realized my love for graphic design. During this project i learned how to png documents and place them into any photo I want.

Retouching Photos

Kaylee Roeben - Photo retouching

This was an interesting project for me. I was able to see immediate changes in my photo. During this project I learned how to use many tools in Photoshop like brushes and healing tools, etc. I even learned how to change my eye color. Overall, I loved the outcome of this project.

Inked Myself

Kaylee Roeben - I Inked Myself

Inked myself was a very interesting project for me. I wasn't too excited about starting it but when I was done I was pleased with the outcome. I enjoyed being able to see what I would look like with tattoos. One thing I wish I would have done differently would be adding more pictures of myself.

Me Then and Now

Kaylee Roeben - Then and Now

This was by far my favorite project to work on. There were so many key factors that were important but in the end they made to outcome that much better. Many people I showed the finished project to would ask me who the person in front of me was. That would make me so happy knowing that I was able to trick them.

Animal Discovery

Kaylee Roeben - Animal Discovery

Making an animal hybrid was an interesting concept. After looking at everybody's projects from the past couple years I felt as if I might not be able to rise to their standards. I took a different approach to this project by having a plain background instead of a nature background like everybody else did in my class. Overall, I was very happy with my project when it was done because it looked realistic.

Comic Booked

This was a great project to end the semester with. In this project I was able to use all the previous skills I learned throughout this class. If I were to do it again I would not change a single thing. I absolutely loved this project.

Illustrator Essentials

I thought that this project was a very awesome project to figure out how to work Adobe Illustrator. It was a very fun project to work on and great to learn the essentials to illustrator.

Design Fundamentals

This was one of the more difficult projects to design because we were told to redesign logos for companies. We knew what the original logos of the companies were. So, we knew what we needed our newly designed logos to look like but there was a lot of room for creativity. Sometimes, its hard for me to be creative. That's why I found this to be one of the more difficult projects.

Powder Magazine Cover

This was one of my favorite projects to work on. I though it was very cool that I was able to design a magazine cover for one of my classmates. Not only that, but for this project we were given what items we needed to include in the magazine cover so it made the project easier.

Branding Basics

This was one of my favorite project to work on this semester because I was able to create business cards for a company I might actually want to have one day.

Explain It Better

This was one of my favorite project to work on this semester because I was able to help out one of the teachers at CVC. By helping out the teacher I was also going to be able to help out students understand how to earn FFA degrees.
