My Calligramme

This is my heart I created and put lyrics from Love Story by Taylor Swift in it. I had a difficult time trying to remove the line from this without removing the text. I used this on the trial version of illustrator on my laptop. I would like to go over removing lines but not text in class.

ART 210 Logo Part 3 Sketches

These are 5 of my sketch ideas for my logo. Logo number 4 and 5 got cut off by my scanner but I have the original drawings on paper. My favorite logo is #3. 

ART 210: Assignment 2 Logo Critiques

1. Pita Pit
I like the Pita Pit logo design however I think the colors could be better. Pita Pit is a food chain where a lot of college students and younger crowds go for lunch or dinner. I like the font of their logo because it is bold and gets the viewers attention. However, I like the font underneath their name logo because I think it's a fun font. I think the colors could be something brighter to get more people's attention. The primary red and boring green color doesn't do the logo much justice. I think if maybe they did a bright blue and mixed it with the red or some other colors besides the red, white and green. I think the colors take away from the logo.

2. Pinkberry
I love the pinkberry logo. I think it is fresh and clean but the font shows that they have a cute design. I like the pink swirl in front of the pinkberry name. I think that the pinkberry logo does bring in customers because it is cute but also looks professional. The pink swirl does not take away from the name but gives the logo an added touch to make it stand out.

3. Betsey Johnson
I used Betsey Johnson's logo because I came up with my JR Handbags idea as one of my logos. I love Betsey Johnson's logo because I think it describes her perfectly. The font is perfect because the buyer can still read it but it's also an edgy font which fits Betsey Johnson's style. Also, the Betsey Johnson lips at the end of the logo is her signature thing and she puts it on a lot of her bags. The pink font works well with Betsey Johnson's personality because she uses fun and bright colors in a lot of her designers and she tends to work with pink a lot. I love her logo and think it works well for her signature and unique style.

4. Tumblr
Tumblr is an online blogging website which I use frequently so I thought it would be perfect to write about. On tumblr you can blog anything, pictures, music, videos, and etc. However, I do not like the tumblr logo. Although it is an online blogging site and should be clean and easy to read I think the logo could look better. I like the font for this logo but I feel like it needs an image or a design next to it to make it stand out and be well known. There is nothing on the logo besides the name and the navy blue background is boring and dull and does not make the tumblr name stand out at all. I think maybe they could have picked a black background or another color that would really make the white font stand out.

5. Keller Williams 

I like the Keller Williams Realty logo. I really like the cursive KW on top of the red bold Keller Williams name. The KW adds a signature and classy look to the logo. Also, the red, bold font really stands out and catches a viewers attention. The font is easy to read so that way it can catch anyones attention. I think this logo does well for the Keller Williams business and I think it would bring in a lot of clients. 

COM 210 Project 1: Logo Part 1

My 5 fictional business companies are as follows:

1. Sprinkles
Sprinkles is a bakery which will sell cupcakes, cakes, cookies, and just about any bakery item someone can think of. I think this idea because recently I've been getting into watching the show Cake Boss and I think it would be neat if Sprinkles was the same kind of concept. Sprinkles will bake any kind of custom cake and is known for their individuality and uniqueness in their baked goods.

2. JR Handbags .
JR Handbags will be a business named after myself. I've always been interested in fashion and interested in designing my own handbags but I want these handbags to be comprised of fun colors and uniqueness. JR Handbags will sell handbags that make a person really stand out and represent the Betsey Johnson type of style.

3. Staging Real Estate Company
Staging Real Estate Company helps with furnishing and decorating homes that are for sale.

4. Couture Kitties
Couture Kitties specializes in selling pure bred cats and kittens. Kittens are rag dolls, Persians, siamese and all other pure bred cats and kittens a person could think of. They also sell cat accessories as well such a scratching posts, beds and toys.

5. Aroma Longue
Aroma Longue is an ultra contemporary place where people can go to enjoy coffee and tea of all flavors. They make fresh baked desserts and also have board games that customers can play while they enjoy their beverages/desserts.

6. Champagne Dreams
Champagne Dreams is a hot air balloon company where people can be brought up in hot air balloons. People can be taken up and view all sites of the location where they choose to go up. People will enjoy an amazing experience and also get a collectable bottle of champagne for each visit up in the hot air balloon.

COM 210 Assisment 1

Hey!! 

I'm Jill Rosenblum, I'm a sophomore at the University of Tampa and majoring in advertising and public relations.

I'm in a sorority on campus, Kappa Alpha Theta. I also am the event chair for UT Spotlight PR and I'm the assistant coordinator for the advertising and public relations section on The Minaret.

Although I do not have a strong artistic background, I expect to learn a lot about how to make really cool art projects on the computer. I know this class might be a bit of a challenge for me but, I'm hoping that I'll learn more about possibly how to create ads and how to create different types of art using the computer. 

I'm excited to start this class and start learning more about digital arts!
