In this task we had to design a brochure showing four important periods in the history of graphic design. These four periods were:

• Swiss style
• Pop art
• Psychedelic Poster design
• New Wave/Punk style

We also had to create four graphic elements showing the style from these four periods.

Motivation

I tried to keep the style very simple with a few colours and a structured layout.
For the posters I tried to create something to present each style.

The reason why I used Salvador Dali for the psychodelic poster was because he is quite an odd artist and he was very active in that period. His art even has the same weirdness that psychodelic posters have.

I used Marilyn Monroe as the main object on the pop art poster as she is easy to make in the pop style (also very popular, so I might not have been very original!), and still look good.

For the Swiss style I created a simple concert poster, with a structured layout and Helvetica as the font.

The idea behind the New wave poster was to create something funny and ironic. The concept was: what happens if santa get stuck in the chimney and who will save him?

Products

In this task we are to design a logo for a food company called ”Food & Malt”. We had to research the term of dude food and the product history and characteristic, to understand what kind of logo we should make. The logo should be easily recognisable, simple and have max three colours. The purpose of this task was for students to research logos, competitors and their target groups.We had to produce the logo in three different colour types, CMYK, RGB and black & white, for printing.

Brief

In this task we had to create a online menu for a resturant client. We had to find our own images and design by using HTML and CSS.

Challenges

My biggest challenge was to align the items. I first used flex box but then I was introduced to grids and started using that instead. I also tried to filter my items with Javascript but I never achieved this as I am not familiar with Javascript.

Goals

One of my earliest ideas included using Flip Cards on every menu. But I figured it might be frustrating and not productive. The idea was to have the image, name and price on the front and the ingredients on the back. But, as I didn’t know where to put the “Order” button, I decided not to.
My other idea was to use Javascript to filter the menus into different categories, inspired by Dolly Dimples, but even though I copied the code from W3Schools.com, it never worked like I
wanted. The tutors couldn’t help as we weren’t supposed to learn Javascript in this module, so I eventually removed it as well. After much back and forth thinking I eventually settled on my current design seen on my page.

Brief

In this task we were to create an advertisment for a radio studio in a chosen genre. The options were;

• Norwegian Culture and Politics: Debate, feature articles, interviews and excerpts from events.
• Humor: Old classic humor like Monty Python and Fleksnes. Focus on 60-70 classics.
• Music: Independent ”up and coming” artists operating in the genre indie electronical.

We also had to create two versions; one printed and one online version. With the size of: 29.7 x 42 cm, 300 DPI (printed version) and 1050×900 px, 72 DPI (online version)
I chose music and created an Indie electronical ad. I used my friend, Kelly as the model and we took the shoots in their room, creating a homemade studio.

My Products

In this assignment we had to build a website for an resturant from scratch. We had to make it in DreamWeaver by using HTML and CSS. We also had to create a wireframe and a prototype, and make the site responsive.
