//www.andersoninstituteoftech.com/apps/classes/1054375/assignments/ Class Name: Digital Art & Design 2 - PM - 2024-PM Instructor(s): Stacy Coleman en-us SchoolSitePro //www.andersoninstituteoftech.com/homeworkItem10060150 //www.andersoninstituteoftech.com/apps/classes/1054375/assignments/ Design a professional and visually appealing logo for a concrete finishing business using Adobe Illustrator. This business is family-owned and has previously been operated by the father. He has now retired and passed the business on to his sons. The client wants a logo that has a modern feel but also shows that the company is established and has been around for a while.

Research and Inspiration:•Begin by researching existing concrete finishing businesses and their logos. Look for inspiration and identify common elements used in this industry.

•Consider the business’s values, services, and target audience when brainstorming ideas.

Concept Development:• Sketch out several logo concepts on paper. Explore different shapes, typography, and visual elements related to concrete (e.g., trowels, concrete slabs, textures).

•Think about how to convey durability, precision, and professionalism through a more modern design.

Layout and Composition in Adobe Illustrator:
•Create your concept using Adobe Illustrator

•Consider the design elements:
- Typography: Select a clean and legible font for the business name. Consider using a bold font for impact.
- Iconography: Incorporate relevant concrete-related icons or symbols (e.g., trowel, concrete mixer, finishing tools).
- Color Palette: Choose colors that evoke strength, stability, and professionalism. Earth tones or shades of gray can work well.

•Arrange the elements (text and icons) in a balanced and visually pleasing way.

•Ensure the logo works well in both color and black-and-white versions.


This assignment will replace your lowest grade (major or minor) or replace one missing assignment (major or minor).

PART 1:
Your challenge is to use natural and artificial lighting, as well as creative perspective and compositional techniques to create visually compelling portraits that communicate eight of the specific emotions listed below. Three of the images should include creative use of shadow:
Happiness
Boredom
Anger
Sinister
Surprise
Excitement
Sadness
Confusion
Fear
Disgust
Frustration
Turn in each of the eight images on a single 8.5x11 canvas with a name, the emotion captured, the lighting technique used, and all exposure information, including the lens used and focal length at which the image was shot captioned at the bottom in a small subtle font. 

PART 2:
In an accompanying Google document, give a brief explanation of the lighting technique used for each of the eight images and which lighting set-up you used to achieve the image. Also, include an explanation of which emotion is communicated and why you feel the image successfully communicates the emotion.

Lastly, write a paragraph summarizing your experience of the following: working in your particular group, any successes you encountered while creating your images, challenges that you encountered while creating your images and how you found your solution, and your favorite portrait of the eight that you are submitting and why you are drawn to it. Be sure to use accurate terminology.

Grading: 
Your final grade will be based on the following criteria:
Effective use of natural and artificial light to convey the chosen emotion
Accuracy of lighting techniques
Technical proficiency in photography and editing (accurate focus and exposure) - Inclusion of all info listed in Part 1
Creative use of shadow in at least 3 photos.
Inclusion of all written information in Part 2 - Usage of appropriate terminology
