ADVE2291 Design Lab 1: Project 2 Illustrator Techniques
I drew the Coca Cola logo, and then redesigned it using fall themed patterns.
The deliverables were to recreate the Coca Cola Logo and use basic functions in Illustrator to redesign it with a theme of my choosing.
I learned a lot in this project, especially about gradients. I also learned about the pattern feature in Illustrator.
I got more practice on the pen tool. I learned simpler more effective methods of using it.
I feel like I need a ton more practice on using InDesign. I spent three hours trying to make the final board because even after watching the tutorial provided and looking it up on other sites, I could not for the life of me get a different art board besides the defaulted one to show up in InDesign. I ended up having to literally create more files in Illustrator to get them to copy into InDesign because it would not work.
