Blog 2: Topic Choice

1. What is your topic and why? 



    • Graphic Design is the topic that I will pursue as my senior project. I have a great interest in both art and computer (mainly editing pictures) so since that is generally what graphic designing consists of, I thought it would be a great topic to pursue. I also believe that since I know people who are familiar with programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, etc. (tools that graphic designers use), I would have a great advantage when it comes to figuring out how to use those tools.  

2. What do you hope to accomplish this year with this topic (connecting your answer to each of the 4 ESLRs)

    • iPoly Citizen: I plan to use graphic design to be an iPoly citizen by creating positive and inspirational messages through my art. 
    • Effective Communicator: I plan to welcome customers and greet them to make them feel comfortable. I also want to be able to discuss with them, and go into depth, about what they would like their product to look like. This will make me an effective communicator because I will be able to produce the best final outcome of the product.
    • Effective Learner: I plan to learn how to look at images and, in my mind, visualize how to put the images together to create a new image. This will make me an effective learner because it will open my mind and help me learn to visualize things through a different perspective. 
    • Effective User of Technology: I plan to learn how to use all the tools (Photoshop, Illustrator, Etc.) to the best of my ability. This will make me more effective as a user of technology because I will be able to make better quality artwork.
