STUDENT: ARIEL WARD CLASS: GRAPHIC DESIGN 102 PROFESSOR: MARGO HALVERSON ASSIGNMENT/FOCUS: TYPOGRAPHIC ORGANIZATION & HIERARCHY OVERVIEW: I BEGAN MY EXPLORATION OF GRAPHIC DESIGN BY EXPERIMENTING WITH CONTRAST, SCALE, LAYERING, AND COLOR TO CREATE DYNAMIC COMPOSITIONS USING ANTONIO VIVALDI’S THE FOUR SEASONS. I CREATED AROUND 60 COMPOSITIONS THAT GREW IN COMPLEXITY AS I BEGAN TO EXPERIMENT WITH DIFFERENT DESIGN ELEMENTS. INITIALLY I WAS ONLY ABLE TO WORK WITH TYPE OF ONE SIZE AND WEIGHT, WHICH PRESENTED ITS CHALLENGES. GRADUALLY I INTRODUCED MORE TOOLS INTO THE MIX. SIX OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL COMPOSITIONS WERE CHOSEN AS MY FINALS, WHICH WERE PRINTED AND DISPLAYED FOR AN IN-CLASS CRITIQUE.
REFLECTION: I LEARNED A LOT ABOUT DESIGN FROM THIS ASSIGNMENT. I’VE BEGUN TO GROW ACCUSTOMED TO CREATING COMPOSITIONS INTUITIVELY USING AN ARRAY OF TOOLS. I’VE IDENTIFIED SOME OF MY STRENGTHS AND SHORTCOMINGS AS A DESIGN STUDENT AND BEGAN TO OVERCOME AND EXPAND UPON THEM. I FOUND THE OPEN ENDED PROCESS TO BE HELPFUL, I SIMPLY HAD TO MAKE COMPOSITIONS WITH A SPECIFIC SET OF TOOLS. AT TIMES I FELT LOST AND OVERWHELMED, HOWEVER THAT DID FORCE ME TO MAKE A LOT OF DECISIONS INDEPENDENTLY. THIS PROJECT WAS A GREAT INTRODUCTION INTO DESIGN.
MY NEXT STEPS INCLUDE: • GAIN IN-DESIGN AND ILLUSTRATOR EXPERIENCE • FURTHER RESEARCH THE HISTORY OF DESIGN • DISCOVER MORE GRAPHIC DESIGNERS

THE PROCESS: INITIALLY I POSITIONED THE TYPE INTUITIVELY, RELYING ON THE KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS I HAVE ESTABLISHED PRIOR. I WAS QUICKLY MADE AWARE OF MY MAJOR WEAKNESSES WHICH I HAD TO OVERCOME DURING THIS PROCESS. AS I BE-
GAN TO GAIN A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT LOOKED GOOD AND WHAT DIDN’T, I WAS ABLE TO MAKE DRASTIC CHANGES MUCH MORE EFFICIENTLY AND CREATE MORE DYNAMIC COMPOSITIONS.

Vivaldi REWORKING COMPOSITIONS WITH COLOR:
I REVISITED SOME COMPOSITIONS THAT I CONSIDERED SUCCESSFUL AND ADDED ONE OR MORE ELEMENTS IN COLOR. THAT CHANGED THE ENTIRE DYNAMIC OF THE PIECE SO I SPENT SOME TIME SHIFTING THE DIFFERENT COMPO-
NENTS AROUND AS WELL AS ADDING NEW ONES UNTIL I FOUND A COMBINATION THAT WORKED. THIS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PARTS OF THE EXERCISE BECAUSE IT FORCED ME TO BE SELECTIVE WITH THE HIERARCHY.
COLOR COMPOSITIONS: I CREATED ENTIRELY NEW COMPOSITIONS MAKING USE OF THE EXPERIENCE I HAD GAINED FROM MY WORK PRIOR. I CHOSE A PALETTE FOR EACH PIECE AND ALLOWED THAT TO INFORM THE REST OF MY DESIGN. WORKING IN THIS WAY WAS
REFRESHING BECAUSE I FELT THAT COLOR ADDED A NEW LAYER OF CONTEXT AND ACTIVATED THE NEGATIVE SPACE MORE EFFECTIVELY.
