Basic Website Design - Otago Uni Assessment 

For HUNT246 (a human nutrition paper), we had to design a website to showcase our assessments. We had to use Wordpress and follow a guided tutorial to create the page, then add our own information and personalise it to suit ourselves. Below is the link to the website:

Adobe Illustrator - Tutorial

For 709 (Digital Design Practices), we have to learn and demonstrate skills using Adobe Illustrator. For our first tutorial, we learnt simple tools like shapes, clipping mask, and pathfinder along with other things. We then followed along with our tutor to work out how to recreate a design from @posterlad. After class, I continued to play and figure out how to finish off the poster, and then created my own colourways. This was my first time using the programme.

After seeing some work from @posterlad, I decided to give gradients a go on Illustrator. The first graphic created reminded me of the Eye of Sauron from LOTR, which lead to a series of colourways that showcase different locations within the trilogy.

Adobe Illustrator - Shapes and Curves

Just a quick muck around with shapes, clipping masks, and typography curves! Enjoyed figuring out how to make each element have its own personality. Colour theme chosen based on various eye colours.
