Dancin' Dance Studio
Logo Design
As the part of my work for Dancin' Dance Studio, which has also included a website redesign and various highlight reels, I created a new logo for the ballroom's brand. She had intially worked with one of her students to capture the silhouetted image. This image was then passed to me, and I traced the shapes and refined them into a vectorized image. Afterward, I worked closely with the client to decide on an original font style for the logo and create a finished motif.
Subsequently, I (and the studio staff) have used the new logo for various designs for the dance business. This has included the above social media advertisement designs, along with printed media for the studio.
Logo Production Time: 2 months
Software: Illustrator, Photoshop
"Books Open Dreams"
Digital Composite
A whimsical composition combining multiple photos.
The goal of this project was to practice image editing in Photoshop to create a fantasy composition for the final project for the course. I gathered a photo taken of me performing a role in a dance production for the project and a photo of an open book that I took myself with a DSLR camera. I also gathered free-source images to use for the remainder of the piece. To make the piece appear cohesive, I adjusted and editing the lighting and colors in the composition.
