Portfolio - Project 4

Instructions:

1 - Based upon the jobs you looked at and the requested skills of each, identify a piece you have previously created that you could improve to show you possess the skills being requested, or create a new project to show that you have the skills the employer is looking for.

2 - Create a blog post about this project: who is the audience, what is the message, and what are you hoping to accomplish with the piece, what design decisions did you make, and why did you make each one?

Each of the jobs I researched required experience with Adobe Creative Cloud and Photoshop.

I wanted to create a new project to show that I have the skills employers are looking for.

I decided to do Adobe Photoshop Classroom in a book Lesson 14 -- Visit Paris Travel Poster.

Visit Paris Travel Poster

---

The intended audience is travelers.

The goal and the message is to have travelers take action and Visit Paris.

The lesson files began with images that needed color correction through clipping masks, levels and curves.

The lesson also explained RGB, grayscale, and CMYK color spaces.

After all color corrections were made, I exported the poster for the web, for printers as a CMYK image, and as a pdf.

I will use this knowledge in future Photoshop projects.
