This was a new program compared to photoshop which is what we primarily used for the semester. While there are some similarities between the programs, even the tools that carry over don&#8217;t act the same so it was really interesting to learn to use the new {or &#8220;new&#8221;} tools. The easiest was probably doing either the warped text &#8211; for the banner &#8211; or doing the roads. Those were easier for me as I either already new what I wanted the end result to look like, or had it relatively simple with what I had to &#8220;trace&#8221;. The hardest for me was probably the legend &#8211; just because for all that I focused on a relatively small area, there were a lot of &#8220;focus points&#8221; within that area that had to be marked and titled. In addition, It took me a bit to figure out how to get the markers to look right, and cohesive with the rest of the map. I&#8217;d say that there are two ways my submission could be improved, by either changing the colour scheme, so it isn&#8217;t just shades of 1 colour, or by re-doing the roads, so that they stand out a bit more compared to the garden paths. I think the one thing that would improve the project would be if there were larger &#8220;breaks&#8221; between learning the individual portions of the project &#8211; like the symbol sprayer or warped text. Out of everything I learned for this project the things I am most likely to use in the future &#8211; outside of personal projects &#8211; would the symbol &#8220;control&#8221; stuff, or the live painting stuff. {Though I figured that out primarily on my own}. There wasn&#8217;t really anything that Inspired me, outside of remembering That I had been to Edinburgh Castle in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>{The &#8220;masterlist&#8221; of symbols I grabbed from}<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"959\" src=\"https:\/\/comdma.com\/rowandma214blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/114\/2022\/05\/misc-symbol-1024x959.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-65\" srcset=\"https:\/\/comdma.com\/rowandma214blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/114\/2022\/05\/misc-symbol-1024x959.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/rowandma214blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/114\/2022\/05\/misc-symbol-300x281.jpg 300w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/rowandma214blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/114\/2022\/05\/misc-symbol-768x720.jpg 768w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/rowandma214blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/114\/2022\/05\/misc-symbol-1250x1171.jpg 1250w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/rowandma214blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/114\/2022\/05\/misc-symbol-200x187.jpg 200w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/rowandma214blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/114\/2022\/05\/misc-symbol.jpg 1300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>{This isn&#8217;t every symbol I used, but most came from this sheet}<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The main thing I learned over the course of this project was how to use Illustrator.
