Blog Post 5
Number 1 is the left-most logo and number 9 is the right-most logo
1 and 9. Black and white is simple to see and visually pleasing(Probably my favorite one)
2. I chose red because red is power and I like to see a computer with power
3.  I chose complimentary color the Blue and Gold seems to work well with blue(My second favorite)  This is the one from Adobe CC
4.  I chose this off of the photo of Mountain Dew pixels because I often drink mountain dew when coding at home
5.  From color lovers I chose a blue color scheme because a computer needs to be cool to have power
6.  I found this on Pinterest when I looked up computer, the problem with this is that the purple does not stand out from the blue
7.   I like to use Code Pen so I chose the logo for it and their colors are blue and green, when looking out it the blue does not pop out so if I would to go for these two base colors I would make the Blue more dark than the green
8. For my choice I chose Red and Blue because they are the perfect opposites for each other of Cool and Power which both are needed for a computer.  I went for a black screen trying a little realism, but was not very successful looking at it now.

My favorite by far is the basic Black and White because it stands out the best, my second favorite is the color I found on Adobe CC, but I can't seem to make a reason as to why these colors would go on a computer.

Letter Project

One piece of feedback that I got from the 20 sketches of my words(10 Each) was that for Tense it should be close together and they like the grateful with the big G going over the other letters





For my hand written finals, I chose to do Tense tall skinny and tight because it shows how tense it is.  For grateful I chose to do an old English G because it looked fancy showing how grateful I am.  






















For my final design of my words that I did in illustrator I chose to abuse fonts for grateful and abuse the pen tool for tense.  I used one font I had to download from the internet which was Olde English and its spacing and size was focused all around the G.  For tense I made a bunch of lines with a pen tool.  I thought that this project was successful because I learned that you can replicate something on illustrator fairly easy from paper.  And I also learned that spacing and sizing creates feeling in a word.
