LECTURE

The first week of class was a online lecture. We were informed about the importance of photoshop. The importance of photoshop is that we need it for advertising and marketing purposes. For graphic designer, it is necessary for them since it can express their creativity, etc. Photoshop is also necessary for people who operate with visuals style, website design, and individual experience function. We also got to know what digital imaging is, and that it transforms printed texts, artworks, and photographs into digital images by using a scanner. Lastly, we were also enlightened about what it takes to become a successful graphic designer, such as: experimenting the software to be more comfortable with it, memorize shortcuts, etc.

PRACTICAL

We were asked to show our favorite graphic design posters from Pinterest. Here are my 3 favorite posters from Pinterest=

1. Poster 1
Figure 1.1 Poster 1 (23/09/2024, week 1)

Description:
The first poster that I chose has a very subtle, but amusing color palette that I am interested in. The poster looks very well organized, with the main color being a more opaque dark blue. I also liked the symbols that surrounds the train.

2. Poster 2
Figure 1.2 Poster 2 (23/09/2024, week 1)

Description:
This is one of the designs that caught my eye while browsing on Pinterest. To start, the ambience that the poster was giving is very mysterious. It has a very subtle color palette with a pop of color red and I am also a fan of the combination of languages that was used in this specific poster.

3. Poster 3
Figure 1.3 Poster 3 (23/09/2024, week 1)

Description:
The last choice that I made is the one I fancy most. It has a very simple yet clear design. It can get people's attention because of the cartoon that is displayed, which in my opinion will be very useful. Because the possibility of people reading the poster is most likely. It captivates people's eye from the visual, then moving on to the typography and the information that is placed in an orderly manner. This poster also has the color palette that I am very fond of.


REFLECTION

I have learned that learning photoshop is much more important than we think. Because, by mastering and learning photoshop we can do a lot more than just enhancing pictures. For instance, we can recover old photos that might be important to a certain someone or something. I also realized while I was browsing through Pinterest, that I liked a certain color palette. It has a very cool tone and subtle colors in the posters.
