For me project 2 was a little easier than the first because of the color aspect.
What I learned from this is the use of the color wheel. I never really thought of it like a color wheel, I just thought of colors. It was interesting to see the different variations of one color and that it can speak into a whole piece of work. I also learned the different types of gradients because I only have used gradients for backgrounds for power point presentations and that only has one choice. The radial gradient was all new to me.
The easiest part was to come up with ideas believe it or not. I am not that creative when it comes to thinking from scratch but I thought I had some smart scenes from my perspective. Also messing with opacity was simple to do. It really shows depth which I used in some of my pieces.
The challenging part was to make the color pertain to the project. This is because I was just thinking what colors I wanted but they were not pertaining to the types on the wheel. Also the pencil tool with blending, I had a difficult time with but with your help it made it easier.
To make this better I probably should have went to the optional class to work on the nit-picky details to make it better but I have senioritis and I am sure many people did the same as me.
Through work experience eventually I will probably move into a role where I have to use illustrator and after effects so using these tools we used in class for when those times come for a promo poster in the future.
