We have continued working on our Active Planet Kids project, and we have been splitting up the work between each other. This week, I was in charge of creating the elements for Dalai Lama. I created a vector of different things associated with Dalai Lama and Buddhism.
I have been working on creating revisions for the line lackeys club. We are still waiting to receive a sketch of his idea, so we can create a vector of it. In the meantime I have taken my sketches, that he approved, and created vectors of them. I will be emailing these options to the president for his approval.
Since my last post I have fixed the logos for the Channel Eye-Lands Pre-Optometry club. The president requested that I add “CSU” to it. I created two different variations of the logo with the “CSU” in it. I created one with the same font as the rest of the logo, and I created another one with lettering that looks like part of the eyeball veins.
We finally hear back from professor Perchuck with all the new information to complete the rest of the posters for her speaker lectures series. I have finished the second poster for her completely, she already saw the preview it just need it the room number at the library. We suggested her to include the CI disability statement on the bottom of the design to create awareness about this services the school provide and also to fill the negative space on the bottom, a win win if we could say that. I currently working on the 3rd poster, it should be ready before next class.
Below is a image of the finalize poster number 2:
Talking to my teammates the past class we decided to assigned new designs to multitask on the week. I was assigned to create a new set of backgrounds for Dalai Lama. Today I finished the set of three backgrounds for one of the already made bubble head for Gorge’s active planet kids book. The first background I’ve created is a landscape of a Tibet region in china, super large mountains and planes with grass. The second background is a landscape with a temple and a small river / lake. The last of the backgrounds I did this week is a scene inside a temple where the Dalai Lama prays with his followers. To get a rich texture for my backgrounds I converted texture images into bitmap then put it on top of the shapes and lower the opacity to obtain a seamless texture.
Below are the three images of the backgrounds I did this week:
We are now done with our logos designs for the GraftGroup online stores (Biking, Working Out, and Hobbies). Same, one of the owners of these stores, have approved our logo designs. We are now waiting for their final decisions between the options we gave them for each website. Since our last post the designs of these logos have gone through some changes. The first image is from my last post, which was the second revision. I then did two more revisions, with the fourth one being the final one.
After creating sketches for Driffills graduation and spirit shirts, we had a critique and chose the designs that were the best fit for the school. We took those sketches and created vector graphics based on the sketches. We have also created a brochure and banner for the school as well.
After sending out logo sketches for the Channel Eye-Lands Pre-Optometry club, we got approval for the sketches. They decided to go with sketch #3, which I created Three slightly different variations. One with an empty center, and two with veins(one of which has a hidden dolphin).

The banner for Driffill School was finished today, I was assigned to develop a banner for the elementary school from K-8. I made a banner with 3ft x 8ft dimensions, I believe that is the standard banner side for events. I use the logo they want to keep and I added the slogan they wan us to use as well ” we are loud, we are proud, we are rams”. I decided to add a patron as a background / texture because I felt the background being red was too empty, too much negative space to be fill.
Also, today I finished working of the revised logos for Biking.com, I made the bike design thicker and also a mock up of a website so the client in this occasion Sam can see the logo in a real web page. That will give him a better idea on how the logo works and if he wants it for his biking.com domain.
Below is a sample of the designs I did so far this week:
I have a not-so-hidden agenda that every class should be a reading class, focusing students on how to access material in a particular discipline. While I have to admit that it is more stimulating to develop a good lecture or plan an engaging activity, these tasks often depend on a (generally faulty) assumption that students […]
A total of three backgrounds were finished today. The backgrounds were related it to Abraham Lincoln, for the bubble head provided by Gorge’s children book. The fist one is a design similar to Abraham Lincoln Memorial, it is not exact as the real one but it gives a sense to it. The second one is a illustration of the place Abraham Lincoln was born, a wooden small house, I try to show some texture on the design to show the wood in the house. The third one, is a landscape showing Fort Abraham Lincoln, I chose this image to develop because the shape of the fort is original and not common anymore, at the same time it will show some history behind him and the kids would be carious to learn more of this unusual building. I posted my design for review from my teammates and I got really good comments, no adjustments to be made for now in these backgrounds for Abraham Lincoln.
