Semester 1 Final Review


Web Design Final Review
            The project that I’m reviewing is our final project which was the Christmas website. My process on making this website was I had to first come up with a topic idea. The topic idea that I decided to do was Christmas Symbols like candy canes, bells, wreaths, mistletoes, stockings, and garland. After finding out my topic idea I had to do research on each of these symbols. While researching I found out some interesting things about each symbol. For example, I found out that candy canes were originated in Germany.
         Something that I had learned during the process of this website was I learned that if you are sick for 3 days that you get way behind and it’s hard to catch up but if you come in before or after school then you can get some work done. The hardest part for me for this whole project was not staying on task during class and instead messing around.

         Something that I would do the same is I would come in after school to work on it more. I would do this because I can also get help on parts that I’m stuck on. One thing that I would change about my project is I would use my time wisely. Using my time wisely can make my websites look better and not have them look so rushed. Something that I will take from this website is the depth part. I really like the relevance- enhanced images instead of just cropping images when you can just resize them down to make them a better thumbnail picture.

Kelvin's Kitchen Logo

Image
For these 4 logos I did a plate with the words Kelvin's Kitchen on them, but I chose 2 different fonts. The font that I used in the top row is Dawning of a New Day. The second font I used for the bottom row is The Heart Maze Demo. I did this logo because it is supposed to represent something like ketchup or a sauce written on the plate. Then I made it with a black plate and a white plate. I also made one bigger version and 2 smaller versions. On these 4 logos I had the object be a cutting board. With the same 2 fonts and in the same positions as the ones on the plate. I also made the cutting boards black and white. I also made one version of the logo bigger and then 2 logos smaller versions. If you have any feedback on either logo please let me know in the comments.

Shadow

Image
For the shadow project I created this in Adobe Photoshop. We had to take an object an create a shadow with it. I chose to create a shadow for a pumpkin. I first had to find an image of a project and since the image I found had more things then I needed I took it into Photoshop and removed the background with the mask tool. Once that was finished, I started to make the shadow of the object. I used the gradient tool and had the image go from black to white for the shadow. In this project I learned how to make a shadow and I leaned how to use the gradient tool better.
