Project 3


  1. What did you learn? I learned how to use the pen tool much more effectively as that is something I have struggled with in the past.I also learned how to effectively communicate directions using illustrations.
  2. What was easy? Something that was easy in this project was gathering all the source material for my illustrations. Another easy thing was creating the background and finding a font to use.
  3. What was challenging? The challenging part of this project for me was just doing the illustrations. It wasn’t that hard per-say but it was tedious and did take a little while. The illustration I had trouble with the most was the screw because it always came out looking a little off.
  4. How could you submission be improved? I think it could be improved by illustrating the screw better. Another improvement I could do would be making better use of the space as it looks a little cluttered.
  5. How could the professor improve the assignment? I think the professor could improve the assignment by teaching more ways on how to illustrate complex things.
  6. How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work? I think I am pretty good with the pen tool so illustrations requiring it in the future would be easier in both school and a work situation.
  7. How did a specific reading or video inspire or help you? A specific video I watched on YouTube contained a design I really liked. The video inspired me to use that design in the background of this project.
