Portfolio Exhibit 3

Portfolio Exhibit 3

Like I disclosed in my portfolio exhibit 1, I recently got engaged! So I decided to create a "save the date" card to send in the mail. For this exhibit, I practiced what I had learned from the exercises in previous weeks.

Photoshop skills I used:

  • Warp tool

  • Eyedropper tool

  • Paintbrush tool

  • Rectangle tool

  • Grid tool

  • Text tool

Design Considerations:

  • For the color scheme, I wanted to have the colors respond well and match our engagement photo, so I used the eyedropper tool and took colors from my beanie and roses.

  • To create better alignment, I centered the photo both vertically and horizontally, then I centered the top and bottom text from thereon.

  • I wanted to add more unique details so I used the twig illustrations and used repetition and proximity. With the twig illustrations, I also lowered the opacity to make them blend well together.

  • I chose a simple font called Loves so it wouldn't distract or take anything away from the photo itself.
