Hello coni and class,

So I have put together my online portfolio using carbonmade.com. It was a easy tool to use to create a neat and organized portfolio. There isn't a lot to really design it the way you could creating a website for your portfolio on WordPress or so. I pay $6 a month so I can have a little more than the free version for example being able to have my logo and a favorcon. So if you guys could check it out and let me know what you guys think so far, it's not 100% done yet but it's getting there.

Thank you everyone!

Resume

This is my resume I had designed what do you guys think?

Type Specimen

Here is my Type Specimen Sheet that is suppose to sample two different fonts that fit together. This piece was done in my Typography class and I put it together with using the idea Traveling.

Tatjana James Logo

Here is my logo that I designed it's supposed to show graphic design and photography. The middle design represents photography so I decided to go with the aperture symbol and then went with the twirls and used the CYMK colors to represent Graphic Design. I need a little help with this I feel like there is something missing but I dont know what.

Holocaust "The White Rose" Illustration

 

Hello Class, Here is my second project which is my Holocaust "The White Rose" Illustration. For this illustration we had research a topic we picked and had to create an illustration for to depict what happened. I picked the white rose which was a german resistance back then who were against the Nazis and Hitler and tried to get the germans to open their eyes on what was going on and what Hitler was doing and where they were really going. For the review I was told to change the T in the first word on the gate to make it look like a T because before it looked like an I. Then I changed the white background for the information and turned up the opacity so the top part of the box wasn't getting lost because the background was so light behind the box. 

Retro Magazine Spread

Hello class, here is my spread from my Retro Magazine for this project I was told to create texture and pattern into the spread that was seen in my cover and my contents page. So to add the texture and pattern I added it to the flower that was also a repetitive content for this magazine. Is this enough or should there be more?

I really like his work because he shows advertising using shape, negative space, color, and type. It's very inspiring because you can say a lot by using the right shape, color and type,

Loving hiking and traveling his work reminds me of outdoors like using shape, typography and shaping it all together. His work is very unique and something that you don't always see. Its very traditional especially his logo work.
