  Typography Name Anatomy  T he Project:   In this project we had to identify different types of typography in our names. We also had to show lines where the letters should be. What I Learned:  During this project I learned a lot of new things. I learned about how to use different fonts the right way and how many people use the font Comic Sans the wrong way. I learned different typefaces that are in my name. I also learned the difference between sans and sans serif. How the Project Went:  This project went pretty good. The typeface anatomy sheet really helped me identify what types of typography are in my name. Overall I learned many new and useful things that I hadn't known before.

What I Learned:       What I learned while doing this project was I relearned what primary and secondary colors are. I also learned about tertiary, analogous, complementary, and split complementary colors. Tertiary colors are primary and secondary colors combined.

On my color wheel there is primary, secondary and tertiary colors.  Overall Thoughts:  I thought this project was very helpful because we are going to be using the color wheel a lot in e-comm and Adobe Illustrator so it was nice how to learn how t...

   The group sidewalk chalk activity was a good chance to meet the other people in E-Comm. My group started out by picking out a symbol on the sheet. Then we decided on a shield shape where we would draw all of our symbols. The shape we decided on was an interstate sign. We chose an interstate sign because interstate signs show where you're going and we are all going places in our lives.    Once we all had an idea of what symbol we were going to draw we started to sketch our design on paper. We picked out the colors we wanted and when we went outside we talked about how we would fill up the space of the square we picked. We took turns drawing our symbols. We worked pretty well as a group and our chalk drawing turned out to be pretty good!
