For Lab 4, we worked diligently on creating business cards with monograms. It was my introduction to Adobe Illustrator and an assignment I enjoyed very much. I learned how to adjust the size, shape, and color of individual letters, and bend them to create an aesthetic monogram. I had always wondered how business’ created their logos and this lab gave me an insider view of how that was done. Although I struggled at first adapting to Adobe Illustrator, I learned to prefer it over Photoshop due to its seemingly easier navigation for the user. The thing I spent that most time on in this project was figuring out a smooth way to make all three of my initials look symmetrical and come together as one large logo, well all three letters still were easily identified.
