My inspiration for this assignment came from the natural earthy color blends that refelcts off of the visually appealing Dali museum. The museum is naturally engagning and the framing the trees provide in the photo creates a nice blend of green and blue colors. The challenge with this assignment was creating a pamphlet that was aestheti-cally pleasing and captured the feel of the museum. I think the use of distor-tion was an interesting and succesful approach.

The inspiration behind this assignment was through a photograph that I was able to capture at

the Honolulu Zoo. As I was taking the photograph I noticed a crowd of children pointing and

laughing at the tiger. After looking at the tiger within the photo more closely, I began to notice

a sadness in the animal’s eyes. I thought this image would be very fitting for the stereotype as-

signment. The fence in front of the animal is a powerful image in my mind of an animal that is

restrained against its will.

For the poster assignment, I de-cided to take advantage of the current position I have as a public relations intern with AARP FL. An event that was often occuring during this assign-ment was the AARP and AT&T Senior Tech Rally. I deicded to create posters in preparation for the upcoming event. The project went through a series of transformations.The challenge with this assignment was attempting to en-gage an audience through font alone.

For the magazine typesetting spread assignment,

I decided to focus on another landmark within the

St. Petersburg community and that is Albert Whit-

ted Airport. The challenge with this assignment

was creating a design that reflected a friendly and

approachable airport with a rich history. I wanted

to do this with vibrant color boxes that

complemented the images I had taken.

The branding assignment was one that I had fun creating. I was able to apply the look of my brand

on to merchandise through Zazzle.com, which I thought provided inspiration for a potential

startup in the future. The idea behind the logo was to create a play on words that would be able to

be both a symbol and a word. I immediately thought of the word checkmark. I then decided to

replace the “check” portion with an actual checkmark and create a marketing company. The final

product resulted in what you see before you.

The idea behind creating a stock chart for the social network

Facebook seemed appropriate given that the site went public last

year and has faced a few bumps in the road throughout that time.

The challenge for this assignment was transforming the data into

something that is informative and provides insight into Facebook and

it’s stock fluctuations.
