InDesign Tutorial Videos

 Tutorial 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AshfNo-i8Ws

In this tutorial, I believe the easiest to use tool that is presented is the text tool. The text tool is a very general tool in different apps and does not requiere much direction at all. I might use this tool to write a text in order to complete a work or form a poster for a future job. I think that the hardest tool to use is the scissors tool because it can be a little confusing sometimes on what I am cutting specifically. I would use this tool to form an elaborated shape that I could not form with just a normal shape tool. I find interesting how in the video, the influencer demonstrates the different ways to form shapes instead of concentrating on the text part.


Tutorial 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDfM8VmDRzQ

In this tutorial, the easiest tool to use is the selection tool. It is used the same as in the other Adobe apps, meaning that for me, it is not difficult. I would use this tool to select texts or images and be able to move them. The hardest tool to use is the theme tool because it has many steps to complete the end objective. I would use this tool to give color to a certain part of one of my projects. What I find interesting about this video is that it goes into detail of how the tools work. 


Tutorial 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycA97SSMAQ0

In this tutorial, the easiest tool to use is the pages tool because the directions in it are very clear. This can be used to add more pages to continue my long works. The hardest tool to use would probably be the frame, but not because of the tool itself, but more because of all the options its offers. I might use this to shape a picture to help my design be more like I wish it to be. What I find interesting is all the new tactics that this video presents, especially from how to begin to do the InDesign to the tools.

Photoshop TagBrush

Image
Artist Statement    The logo that I’m reusing for my Tagbrush project in Photoshop is the sunflower logo. In the Photoshop app, I added some new techniques to give the logo a complete, new makeover.    The picture was originally used for a past project, where I drew a sunflower to be drawn on my forehead as my personal logo. As I have mentioned before, the sunflower resonates with the qualities and values I have. Sunflowers are associated with happiness, bubbliness, and sunshine. Most of the time, I get told that I remind others of sunflowers because of how I am. These are traits that I wish to portray when I’m around my friends and family, therefore I decided that this specific flower would symbolize who I am as a person.    In the Photoshop app, while learning to use new tools, I changed the logo. In this version, the sunflower has a grungier, street vibe due to the new brushes I used. With this makeover, the sunflower has a new meaning. I believe this te...

Illustrator Tools for Beginners

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_-ygXZUq3U I believe that the tool that will be the easiest to use is the type tool because it is similar to ones I have used in other applications like Canvas or Word. I think that the hardest tool to use will be the Layer tool because even though I understand how to use it, I still need to practice to feel more comfortable with it. I might use the text tool for writing texts on different artworks or creating articles. Meanwhile, I use the layers tool to create a various number of artwork in the same page. What I find interesting about this video is how he explained the gridlines and helped me understand how to move the shapes and shadows. This video was extremely helpful and introduced new concepts about Illustrator. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JjR4XNJ-eo&t=11s I think that the color themes tool is the easiest to use because I only have to find the button and choose the color instead of doing a long process. The most difficult tool to ...

BW to Color

Image
  In this assignment, I used the Adobe app called Photoshop to edit the colors in one of my pictures. The photograph I used for the assignment is the one I used for a previous assignment where I am sitting in the docs in front of the riverwalk while admiring the buildings.           The history behind this picture is that  I have visited the docks at night regularly to find some hours of peace and even, friendly conversations. This is a place where I connect with nature and other people at the same time.   My overall vision of this assignment was to give color to the city of Tampa. I believe changing the colors represents different perspectives we can see through the city. I believe that the city presents many opportunities for us all and through this picture, we can see what is has to offer.  I created this work to show how much I admire the city and the beauty within, reflected on the riverwalk. There was no specifi...
