One thing I learned from this project is how to make patterns. I had no idea that you could make patterns in Adobe Illustrator. I actually like this project because it teaches how to use specific tools in both Illustrator and Photoshop. I’ve been meaning to learn more in depth technical edits with these two programs, so I’m glad I learned how to make patters. I think the most challenging part of this assignment was settling on a design that would work. There are so many metaphors to chose from. Even once you choose one, there’s multiple ways you can go about representing the phrase. On top of that, some designs are more difficult than others. I think the biggest takeaway I have from this project is that you have to be careful with time management. Even simple designs can take a lot of time to create.
