How a Computer Works

For this particular post, it wont be about a logo or anything but a paper on the inner workings of a computer from the time the power button is pressed to the time one can start typing on the keyboard. This can be a sort of hard paper to do, cause if one doesn't know anything bout a computer which most people don't they will have a hard time writing it looking up everything. The first thing that would have to be talked about would be the power supply since it gets the whole process started. Then after the power supply would then be the motherboard, CPU, BIOS, ram, and video card but these five don't have to be talked about in its correct order like this. And after thats out of the way the last three things that will have to be talked about is the hard drive, operating system, and monitor either LCD or CRT or even both.

Inside Out Tennis Logo

This was yet again another logo from the website 99 designs. In this one the client wanted a logo for there tennis coaching website and facility. With this particular logo two different directions were used, the first one was of a tennis ball with greenish yellow and black. The bottom part of the ball was green then on top of that was a white line that the tennis ball has then on top of that was the black top part of the ball. After that was done a black background was put behind it with the words Inside Out in a green gradient over the ball and Tennis in white under the ball. For the second one a tennis player was drawn swinging a racket, his shirt and sweatband was lime green while his face and arms were black and the words Inside Out Tennis were put on the bottom of the shirt in black.

Goal Republic Logo

This here was another logo contest from the website 99 designs. For this logo, the client Goal Republic wanted to change their logo from there website. They requested a logo that was cool and edgy, but also appealed to all ages from kids to adults. So the logo that was done was one that was meant to be a crest type logo as if it were like a family crest. It was in a blue radial gradient from white to dark blue with green and yellow in a octagon like shape. After that a yellow ribbon was put around the bottom of it with the words Goal Republic and a blue and black stylized soccer ball in the middle of the crest. Then another version of the logo was created this time it featured just a stylized soccer ball with a red ribbon around it.

Planet Beauty Logo

When this logo was being done, it was for a company called Planet Beauty who wanted to revamp there current logo on the design site called 99 designs.com. Two different versions for this company was made, the first one had a globe drawn with different swirly parts in it to indicate that its a plant. Then each swirly part had its own gradientation of pink, then after that was done the words beauty was put on top of it so it said planet beauty with a planet for the word "Planet". On the second version the words Planet Beauty were put in a pink gradient with a different font from the original logo.

Monster

This particular project is both interesting and unique cause there are new techniques that will be learned if they are not already known now. Once a basic shape or outline is made for the monster, the first thing that will be done is to make the hair. And to do that first one has to do is make a circle then stretch one side of the circle to a point, and after thats done choose a color for the monsters hair then set that shape as a brush. And once that is done use the brush tool to draw the hairs all over the monster and once that is done and with a few more other steps to do, the monster would most likely be pretty looking with all the fur on it with the eyes and stuff. The new tools in this excerise will be the use of the brush tool and the glow either inner or outter.

Basic Shapes

For this particular project, one can use there creativity to the fullest by how they use the shapes that are giving to make any object or structure they can imagne. Like for example if a person was to make a house with eight particular shapes, the body of the house would be square like and the roof would be like a two sided triangle with out a third side. And for colors they could possibly choose a light blue for the color of the house and a red for the roof. Then when it comes to the area around the house they could use a slanted type of triangle for the grass and bushes. And for trees if they decide to put some in could be a rectangle like square with slanted triangles for branches and like rain drop looking shapes for the leaves.

Distressed Text

By doing a project like this, one will learn how to make text appear old or as if it were wet and got wrinkled. And not only that this can possibly help them with future projects that involve text because a client may want an old western kind of look for there business as if they were in business for a long time. Overall this is a fun project to do cause it involves making text a certain way that can be stretched or altered in any way see fit before making it weathered by drawing lines all other it in all directions then merging them together.
