transformed through the use of Photoshop,
Publisher, Illustrator, and Paint displayed as a Web Page using
FrontPage
Description: This is a web page which
demonstrates the principles and elements of
design with short definitions for each principle
or element demonstrated. The requirements for
the Elements and Principles of Design Project
were:
I
chose to present it as a web page. After
selecting the graphic, I found myself using
several different pieces of software to create
the effects that I wanted. I had never
used Photoshop and was not comfortable enough
with the software to create the entire project
in Photoshop. I did learn to use parts of
Photoshop which in turn made me use Illustrator
with Photoshop, so I became familiar with some
of the processes in both of these programs.
Rationale:
I was not familiar with the terminology or
the definitions of elements and principles of
design. This project along with the rule of
thirds has made me more aware of these elements
and designs. I included the definitions
with the graphic more for my benefit than
anything else because I wanted to be able to use
this for a reference later on.
I have included this project because it meets
the requirements of the assignment in
illustrating elements and principles of design
and because it shows that it integrates with
other areas of Technology Applications such as
Web Mastery. This is clearly a beginners attempt
at digital graphics. It will be a
benchmark that I can compare against future
work. It also shows me that I need to practice
and polishing my skills using different kinds of
software so that I can produce the kind of
final/end products that I want.
Implications for future: I think that
this project will make an excellent assignment
for students to show their understanding of the
concepts of the Elements & Principles of Design.
It is a project that can be taught and used in
any of the TA courses because the concepts are
used in all TA courses.
Reviewers Comments:

done, Sheryl.
