For this project, I created a logo from the word outgoing using Adobe Illustrator.  Outgoing is an adjective that directly describes me.  I am not only extroverted and talkative, but I also am a night owl who likes to have fun.  That is why I chose to go this route when determining how I was going to create my logo.  I'm really happy with how it turned out in the end, especially how it looks on 3D primitives.  In my opinion, I see it as easy to read, simple, pleasing to the eye, and original; which are all attributes I was going for.  

For my calligram, I took a selfie and turned it into a bunch of words describing myself using Adobe Illustrator.  I enjoy how from far, away you can tell it's me but when you zoom in you notice every little detail is out of words and I think that was a really cool project to do.  I am not the most proud of this one, and it definitely wasn't my favorite to make; however, I still am pleasantly surprised with how it turned out and my work ethic throughout making it.  

Growing up my Aunt Lisa was one of my greatest influences because of her creativity that has always inspired me.  She loved Betty Boop and always had paintings, stuffed animals, and knick knacks of her character all around the house.  For this project, I created it through Adobe Dreamweaver using HTTL code.  I used meticulous coordinates, lines, gradients, and curves; I never really got into cartoons as a kid, so I chose to use Betty Boop because of my Aunt Lisa.  This project required extreme patience, and time commitment, but I am very proud of the outcome.  It took me about 9-10 hours.  This was one of my most challenging assignments, but also one of the most rewarding ones.  I added two screenshots of the file to show that I added a moving linear gradient for the background.  It was fun learning how to code for the first time, and now I have a high respect for people that do it often.
