Graphic Design-Colorful Business Card

This card automatically drew my attention because of all the color. It keeps the important information off the corners of the card, hwich is smart considering it is always tucked away in your wallet

Typography-Man inside Computer

I saw this photo and thought of Case being inside the computer in Neuromancer. It's a pretty cool photograph

Typography-Book Cover

This is one of the covers of neuromancer. It is very busy looking. In my design I hope to simplify it but still get the point across.

Graphic Design-Expensive business card

This is a cool business card. But it looks like it would be VERY expensive to make and the business owner will really have to be careful on who he wants to give the cards to because by giving them to everyone he will be wasting money.

Typography-Matrix

When I read about Neuromancer, I instantly think of this movie matrix and this image connected with it.

typography-Mount Sinai

This font is very professional. The font is a serif and is very clean looking. The color blue ensures people's trust. The font and color and two very well thought out ideas put together for the hospital.

An Example of a letterhead and business card.

Graphic Design- Creative Business Card

Now that is a Creative Business card! hahah I love it!

Graphic Design-Resteraunt

This is my workplace. The man in the center is almost like the "logo" of the resteraunt. I always looks at it and think how difficult the design is. The Fisherman's face has so many fine little details it's almost hard to make out as the logo gets smaller.

Graphic design-Envelope

To me, this is an average envelope heading you will normally see. The logo (whether font based or not) usually up in the top right-hand corner along with the mailing address. It's simple and clean and gets the point across smoothly.

Typography-Old Comp. Screens

This is a perfect example of what I was going for in my project. I wanted the green and black color scheme to match the old tech computer screens.

Graphic Design-Business Card

This business card is neat and creative, but looks like it is a little bit too much. It would be hard to keep in your wallet.

Graphic Design-flower logo

I really like this flower logo. It is very clean cut and its still easy to tell what it is. I want to make my flower logo a little bit better looking.

Typography-Square Font

This is a neat font. They started out using only squares and cutting out pieces to make it a square font. It's hard to read but kind of creative. It looks very difficult to do.

Typography-square poster

I found this photo and I love the colors of it and the square effect going on behind it! I really want to incorporate the same look in my kinetik poster.

Typography-Electric Dream

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ek08KvgqFGMThis movie Electric Dream gives me an idea of how I want my poster to look. When the computer makes music, its a bunch of squares and I like how that looks and want to incorporate it into my poster.

Graphic Design-Skills

Came across this graphics piece on the internet and it caught my eye. It has got to take a big amount of experience to make something like that. I'm still trying to master the pen tool on illustrator......"sighhhh"

Graphic Design-Color Psychology

http://www.empower-yourself-with-color-psychology.com/meaning-of-colors.html
This goes along great with what we were talking about in class about the meaning behind colors, and what impact they have when being advertised to people.

Typography-pen tool

This video helped me in using the pen tool (WHICH I CAN NOT GET DOWN) with making my eyeball in typography.

Graphic Design-Intricate logo

This logo is very intricate. There is a lot going on within it. Usually logos are normally really simple, but not the Starbucks one. But they still are so widely known to most people for their logo. Pretty cool.

Typography-tetris

This sure brings back a lot of memories. I want to incorporate a little of the tetras look within my Kinetik poster.

Typography-Typograpgy art

http://designbeep.com/2010/01/28/35-examples-of-creative-and-meaningful-typography-art/

This website is awesome typography art. I would love to learn some of the stuff these people have done. It is very inspirational.

Graphic design-Representational Logo

This logo is an example of a representational logo. Instead of something else to represent the Penguin Collective, they used a simple penguin.

Typography- tetris look

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLmXq5k3-EQ&feature=related

Here is a band that I will be representing in my poster. I love the cover of the music albulm. Its very boxy and computerized looking (tetris looking). It is also somewhat electric. I am going to incorporate square shapes into my poster to give the audience an idea of the music.

Graphic Design-Good or Bad?

This letterhead, in my opinion, is very heavy on the right side. They should have put the bottom object on the left side to space it out a little better.

Typography-Poster

This is a very interesting poster. It captures the viewers attention. Although it does not have any information on the poster. It should have at least a website or a date of when the festival is starting.

Graphic Design-Logo

This is an example of an abstract logo. The red object is known through the United States as the Pizza Hut logo

Typography-The Band "Covenant"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPnWOem7jok
Here is more music featuring at the Kinetik Music festival. It all gives me a much better idea of what it must be like to attend the festival. It is very upbeat and fun type music.

Graphic Design-Letterhead

To me this is an example of a pretty good letterhead and logo. The colors draw your eyes to the airplane but it is still rather simple. The font is very official looking. It also looks very bold and strong.

Graphic Design-Color Schemes

http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/true-colors1.pdf

This website describes the difference between what men and women see in colors. For my Osaka tourism logo, I need to find neutral colors that will speak to both genders.

Typography-Fashion

This website shoes the fashion behind the music festival and it helps to explain what kind of audience you are speaking to.
