Graphic Design
Quarter 2, I did a project on Graphic Design,in which I needed to bring shapes together to portray an image without using words that would explain the image. This image needed to be a road sign that could give direction to the drivers.The process was interesting and tedious. At first I wasn’t aware that the sign could not include words so when I sketched my sign; I decided to do road construction up ahead. I loved drawing it,but I found a large difficulty in finding a website that could actually help me achieve my goal. Eventually I ended up with pixlr graphic design tool website. I did not like how it worked and it didn’t have many shapes.I believe it was best with editing an image more than making an image. I did the best I could with that,but I did not believe that it was worthy of submission because I did not like how it was portrayed. So, I asked my fellow class members who also had Graphic Design project and most of them used pixel,but I one classmate used another designing tool website called ipiccy. This website was extremely better than pixel it had shapes that I could use and editing features that made it easy to transform my project into something I had better faith in.
A success I had was re-doing my sign over with another graphic design website. The image came out so much better and clearer that I felt like I accomplished something. My failure that I had in this project was trying to make something off of pixlr;it was a waste of time and the outcome was not good. I learned,for this project, that images are made of shapes and you can use any shapes to make that image. I learned that when making my image if I don’t have confidence in it,than it’s not worthy to be submitted because if I don’t have confidence in my own image than I could do better. I learned that when making this image I need to pay attention to comments and the feedback because to make a better image for others to understand,their perspective is important. I learned,about myself,that I should have high expectations for my work and not settle for anything less. I need to be confident in my work and work hard to submit the project.

If I were to do this project differently I would look for other graphic design websites, rather than just taking what is suggested to me. Although, it was suggested I still have the option to look for others. Also,any tips I have for future projects would be to work hard to achieve your goal. This project inspired me to have high expectations for myself in any project, in any class.
There is simply no substitute for hard work when it comes to achieving success.
