Creative anarchy

the anarchy of creativity

   this article explains to the reader what some of the rules of graphic design are. the author uses circular reasoning to show that their is rules but their are times that you should and shouldn't follow them but, with that he does bring some good points with him. 

 

   as a designer you must be creative but still fit into the clients demand. you must push the acceptable without breaking it. when designers get together we must collaborate to reach a goal but we also need leaders to help us get there. leaders need to help manage projects and help communicate to the group and, all designers need to know how to use programs and understand technology and trends that are happening right now.

 

Tomato Shadow

My Shadow

   I took a image and than duplicated it and transformed it to make a realistic shadow. I used the gradient tool and a Gaussian blur with a feathered edge. i used a tomato because i wanted to do something easier for my first try. i will definitely use this skill for many of my future projects.

My Patterns

Brandon's Pattern

I made a simple pattern that would lock in or appear in a way that looked like that than i used Illustrator to make it a pattern that i could drop into any box or line if i needed to do so.
