This project was personally fun for me because it took every concept what we learned in class to reality.  I worked with 6 team members, that had the final say about the design.  In all the previous projects we just designed something of our taste then we had ideas from Mrs. Benson or peers to make changes on our days we had online screen critiques.  I actually got to experience factors of dealing with Quick print (weight of the paper when print and then getting the programs scored), team members:  approving style of the graphics, fold, colors, word usage.  Honestly after bringing this to a final product, I was more proud of this design, for the reason it brought in live experience with what I want to do with my career.  

Mrs Benson I want to thank you personally for this!

Final design for this project, all images from Istock & Microsoft by permission of my instructor. This piece was amazing to have fun with.  The thought process of stress is something everyone can relate to.  I learned researching for this project of cost it would take to place an ad such as this, for example $125,000.00 for an inside cover. 

Logos

For this assignment we are to find a logo that has changed & discuss its changes, while providing our own opinions of the new/old design.

Old

New

Old Logo:  colors are warm, but boring, design is well centered & aligned, doesnt catch my eye, although i think they were reaching for an authentic look

New Logo:  bright colors to catch costumers,  graphically pleasing with the slanted bell, bold font brings in more attention
