Fetner- Sam- Magazine Final

For my magazine redo, I did not have too much to fix.  On the cover page, I moved around the text to make it farther away from the image and then aligned the date.  For the 1st spread, I pulled the green from the image and made it the type color for the sub headlines.  For the 2nd spread I did not have anything to fix.  And for the third spread, I added a picture of Karl Lagerfeld to the “sidebar” part of the page and added arrows to direct it towards his obsessions.  I got rid of some of the obsessions as I did not want the page to be too cluttered.  I think I cleaned it up a lot and made everything neater.  I hope you like it and have a nice holiday!

Cool Picture

I love this movie and just think this poster is so cool.  If you look closely it is made up of cards to put together the Joker.  A lot of cool things one can do with graphics!

Architecture Inspires

November 30, 2010  |  Inspiration, inspire, Resources  |  No Comments

I’ve been fortunate enough to live around the world, and in every country that I’ve lived in, I’ve always been impressed by new pieces of architecture that pop up around cities.  I found this website that shows over 30 of the most interesting architecture around the world, and many of the buildings pictured have inspired me to be more creative in my work for GRA 217.  After all, if someone can design a building that can withstand the natural elements and still make it incredibly creative, then I think I can be more creative in designing a small website.

My Favorite Website!

I just wanted to share my favorite website…not only do I love the clothes on the website, but I also love the way it is all laid out.  Every couple of days or so, the website is updated and I think it is all put together very well.  All of the pictures represent the clothing well and are all great pictures.  Hopefully this helps for those doing a website with fashion and clothing.

When I was looking online at magazine spreads in order to generate some ideas, I came across this website: http://bestdesignoptions.com/?p=4076. The website contains 20 different examples of creative magazine spreads. All of the examples I think are extremely well-done and effective. Hope this helps !!!!!!

Barack Obama RollingStone Magazine Cover

November 9, 2010  |  inspire, magazine, Resources  |  No Comments

When searching magazine covers and spreads, I came across this Rollingstone magazine cover of President Barack Obama. I thought the magazine cover was extremely effective and unique because unlike the majority of covers which are filled with text and headlines for various articles, this cover is able to capture the attention of potential readers solely due to the image. The image itself is so powerful that it is placed over the word-mark of “RollingStone”.

I came across this poster of various business cards. I thought that the different designs may help inspire graphic students in designing their own cards. Hopefully this visual element will help someone complete the assignment!
