Day 119: A little something

Day 118: What kind of people in your life inspire you the most?

The people that inspire me the most are people who enjoy inspiring other people, others who are there for you, got your back even when you haven't built a strong relationship with them and people who come back to you for an exciting conversation!

Day 117: Mojito Event

This was the first major project that was introduced to us at the beginning of the year. As a class, we were all supposed to make 3 different logos that could be used for this event. After making these logos for the whole week, the whole class was that one of the clients are going to coming in and see what we have come up with for this annual event.

Here was what I was told when they brought up this news, to bring everyone into the loop. You are going to create a logo for Sherry Mckibben's Mojito Golf Club Tournament & Pride Dinner. Most of my classmates in the class didn't read the guidelines where we were supposed to indicate Sherry in some time of form or fashion. After I took my time to read guidelines, this event was mainly made in the image for Sherry, as she made a big name for herself representing this city.

After practicing and perfecting the art of logo designing, I feel like I could've done better and could have taken more time into working on this logo. This is okay, for beginners who don't really have a good idea of what to make. Before the client came in, we had to pick our best logo and present it to the client. In the end, I choose to pick logo #2 for the reason that it is a simple logo with a bold message and a bold understanding of what the event was going to be. The only comment I took out of the client's mouth is that it pops and grabs your attention. The client also liked how I added the golf bag to replace the I and it was also different from other logos but of course, my logo wasn't the winner in the end. The logo you see below was the one that the client herself have hand picked with her other employees. The logo you see will be used for their event! There were tons of hardworking logos but only one could be chosen as the winner after 2 weeks of waiting for the final result! Congrats to the classmate who got their logo picked!

Day 116: What do you display on the walls of your home — photos, posters, artwork, nothing? How do you choose what to display? What mood are you trying to create?

In this household, we have tons of pictures of nature around us. Can be as simple as a flower to a famous landmark. These pictures were chosen for the reason of giving your house a warm feeling and to also fill up all the empty space in the house. Some people prefer to have bare walls which are also fine. You will never know what is better for you until you experiment with things you've never have tried before!

Day 115: Have you ever had a random encounter or fleeting moment with a stranger that stuck with you?

It always depends on the situation. If you don't mind the conversation you are having with this stranger you should continue. If you are out of things to talk to, of course, you are going make up an excuse and try to leave them until you see them eye to eye again

Day 114: Do you like when people are protective over you?

Yes, I do prefer when people are protective because you know who's there for you when you are in tough situations.

Day 113: Hero Film Festival

The assignment was to first choose a city and then come up with 3 different logo's that will go with your film festival. I picked Vancouver, BC, Canada and for my film festival to have a superhero type of theme. I created variations of my 3 logos and it came down to these 3 you see above. If I just showed anyone this on its own, no one will know the explanation or know what type of message you are bringing across but I'm here to explain all that to you!

In logo 1, it seems like the letter A and H just attached to one another. Well, you are kind of right but there is much more than just that! It is the letter H with a cape attached to give it a superhero type of vibe. I went from debating the colors of the logo to finally picking out the one logo shown above.

In logo 2, I found a strong and bold font that look good and thought to myself what the hell do I do with this? My teacher came in and gave me a great idea and told me to try and disguise the font. I tried different ways to disguising my logo.

Last but not least, in logo 3 was honestly a struggle for me. I had some help the first two logos while I was left alone to figure out what I was going to do for my third logo. After hours and hours of research, I've given up and decide to maybe search up symbolism for heroism and that's where the shield comes in.

Well now to the good news. After a long discussion, I was told that majority of the class voted for .... Stay tuned after the break! Ha!Ha! just kidding! Well, the class has chosen logo #1. After everyone was told the news about their logos, the next assignment was to make a business card. After variation, hard work, and dedication I've final came down with my favorite so here it is right below. So here is another explanation to what I did with those!

The business card you see on top is the front side and the one on the bottom is the back side and/or via versa. In the top business card I added the logo in the center to give the logo itself a strong and bold look. For the background I was given the idea to put some time of a comic book feel into the background. I filled the card with full of circles to show that comic book feel as I haven't thought about that when my teacher asked me what I could have done for my business card. I kept overthinking about all the superhero related movies and thinking if I can take an element out of the movie and apply it into the business card. Enough of that

In the bottom card, the logo itself is giving the effect that it is projecting from the projector. And that is all I had to say about that. There is alot more of this project to come! So stay tune for more cool content!

Day 112: Describe your last attempt to learn something that did not come easily to you.

Learning how to use Photoshop and Illustrator  was a bit of a struggle for me to learn because I had to learn something I've never used before to needing these tools for all the projects I do in school and any type of project outside of school

Day 111: If you could read a book containing all that has happened and will ever happen in your life, would you? If you choose to read it, you must read it cover to cover.

Day 108: Why do you blog?

I decided to blog because it is a way to release all the thoughts you have on your mind and hope it releases a bit of a stress out of your system. Blogging is therapy. Well, one way I relieve my stress. Blogging is just one way for me to let loose! Once you find a way to release all that attention on your shoulder, turn it into a daily routine!

Day 107: Is it easier to forgive or forget?

It is easier to forgive someone then forget about it. I say this because some people over think on life and the memory will come back and hit you one day. While you can forgive someone and move on.

Yes, it is possible to be single and happy. Anything can happen when you are living and trying to enjoy your life!

Day 104: do you believe in love at first sight

No, I don't believe in love at first sight but I will once I see it myself!

Day 103: would you like to travel abroad to learn about new things throughout the world

Yes, I would travel to a foreign and a new country to learn new things throughout the world. I hear myself and other people coming out of high school and say where will these subjects we learned in school will apply to us in the real world? People think traveling is just for sightseeing and crazy adventures but I can't agree more. Especially when you travel there is history within every step you take. I enjoyed social studies to a point where I just enjoy the geography aspect within this field. I basically fell asleep learning history because I knew I didn't need to know anything about it when I finish school but now I regret on skipping out on the history lessons I could have soaked in. History may not be important now but later on, in life it will hit you!

Day 102: what is the best thing about being your age

The best thing about being my age is that you get to start to realize that you are left alone to step out into the real world and experience everything your parents has done in the past. If you find yourself not ready for the real world, you aren't just ready. Take a step back and get yourself prepared to step into a new chapter of your life!

Day 101: life lessons you’ve learned throughout life

Always ask for feedback. Whether you like it or not it will help you improve in whatever you are doing either if it's good or bad. I've learned that coming out of art class.

Day 98: For many of us, winter is blooming into spring, or fall hardening into winter. Which season do you most look forward to?

My favorite season is winter. I've been told you like the season depending on when your birth date occurs on the calendar. Some may be, some may be not. 

Day 97:do you think it’s better to have a few close best friends or to have a lot of acquaintances

I prefer to have a few close best friends. For one because you know whose going to be there to talk to you and there when you need them as to having a lot of acquaintances. Why? For another reason it is because you might forget about them and when you reunite with them it is a different feeling compared to the first few times you've met this person in general

Day 96: If you were to be the opposite gender, what do you think would be different?

I just want to know what happens in a mind of a female

Day 95: Do you feel like you “get” social media, or do you just use it because that’s where all your friends and family are?

I only use social media for the reason of keeping up to date with others who like to share about their life. I also only do share content that I like to post. I used to be curious about if people watch or read my stuff or not but as I've grown I've learned just post it for myself and hope that I can come back to these posts and remember what I did in the past. If you enjoy the posts I post then Thank You. I really only post for my own interest but I don't mind sharing at all!

Day 94: do you keep your thoughts to yourself?

No, I don't keep feelings to myself. When a thought pops into my mind I will write it down and hope that I can still remember it as i take out my pen and write it down on the page.
