E9 F I N A L  P R O J E C T

TEAM-Slayer
PRODUCT- Boomerang Ball


I think our team worked well together because we communicated well and knew what we needed to get done each day, did even amounts of work, and got all of our work done on time.

The things we struggled with was that everyone had different ideas for parts of our project like the logo and video and had to come to one decision.

If i was to do another group project through ecomm i would get all of our ideas straight before we started it. for some things during this project we came up with the idea right before we started it and just went along with the flow.

I was pleased with were we ended with our project the only thing that i would change would be to add more to the website and make it look more professional.

I have improved from the beginning of the year immensely because at the beginning of the year i didn't know the software and how to work it or any understanding of what we were going to be doing and how to do it. but reaching the end of the year shows how much i have grown in every strand. i have knowledge of how to complete things on my own and knowledge of the software and terms.

In this project i created the coupon, Boomerang Ball in the animation, and the idea for the logo and created the first logo and idea for the video.

 Photoshop Projects

I liked these projects because they were really creative and i enjoy using photoshop in ecomm. Throughout these projects we used new tools including the magic wand tool, clone stamp tool, and the lasso tool. The difficulties that i ran into was using the new tools that i haven't used but in the end of these projects i got a new understanding of photoshop and more skills that i 
can use this year.

my personal logo

this is the final result of my favorite personal logo i created. i wanted to keep it simple and bold by using black and not keeping it too busy, and by using my first initial. my feedback on my logo was that it was very memorable, unique, simple but original, and bold.

famous logos

in em this week we created famous logos through illustrator! we found tutorials on youtube and the internet to help us. i decided to create the Chanel logo and also the old Pepsi logo. i learned a lot of new things having to create these logos and having to learn how to do it on my own. learned a lot about the pen tool, which was difficult but i kept doing it over and over and eventually got the hang of it, and so much more.

these are the logos i created with the tutorials listed on them to guide me through how to make them.

graphic design

what is graphic design?

Graphic design is art that is a part of everyones lives, it contains words, color, emotion, size, shapes and creativity to create something like a label or logo. every day you can see a label on something like a soda can or even your school textbooks. its all graphic design, and it plays a big role in our lives.

3 personal connections-

  • when picking a book i normally go toward the books with the interesting covers that look aesthetically pleasing to me.
  • i don't like any of my school textbooks and one of my friends asked me why. and i responded they were ugly. most people don't like that they are textbooks for SCHOOL but the one thing that went to my head for why i didn't like it was the cover.
  • when I'm  looking Pinterest and a logo pops up it makes me want to draw it or make a new logo

E9 PROMO VIDEO

e9 is a program here at olathe northwest high school which allows students to learn things in areas of video, graphic design, and animation, but you can learn all about that by watching this video i created in the video portion of e9 showing what e9 is and what we are all about!

  • in my video i think i edited the film well including the voice over and music and had steady well planned shots.
  •  i think if i did this project again i would have gotten more shots.
  • i think what i could improve on would be getting a greater variety of shots instead of mostly focusing on medium and wide shots.
