Ecommunication brochure

Our final project was to create a brochure for the E-communication brochure that would be handed out to incoming freshman.  The purpose of the brochure would be to inform and market the E communication program.  Since this program is  well-known around johnson county, i thought it would be suitable to put images that represent each program.
animation: i put  a series of circles that appear to be creating the motion of a bouncing ball.
Broadcasting: HDTV cameras seems suitable for the broadcasting strand of eComm
Web design: that image was simple-- a computer
Graphic design: this one was difficult to define.  You could put a paint brush, but that also represents all artists.  I decided to put the pen tool as the image since it was directly related to the programs that Graphic Designers use.
Video: i put a 60D camera for their image since that is what a lot of the video students use.  that's what my sister bought during her senior and she was in that class, so i thought it would be suitable.

Its not very creative but i think it accuratly represents this program.

personal logo

My logo design didn't come easily.  It was a struggle to design something that truly represented me.  In order to do that you need to know yourself.  This required a lot of soul searching.  Since i still haven't found out the type of person i am and who i am to become, this logo almost felt impossible to complete.  
I went through many ideas and many designs... but they were awful.  Just so terrible.  Honestly, a third grade student could've done better than me.  i just had no creative juices flowing.  it was just bad.

like i said... i went through many ideas... my artboard shows the diversity of my ideas..

my final design was...

i didn't get to this design until i saw this work of art by a specific artist.  This artist didn't list their name. but i love their work.  it was mainly things in nature that had bright colors and were layered.  

this led to my inspiration of sunsets.  I've always loved to sit out and watch sunsets and sunrises.  If i couldn't design something that represented me as a person (since i haven't found myself quite yet), then i decided to design something that showed what i liked.
