Two Fruit - Apple 'n Grape fruit

This is a grapefruit with the inside of an apple.  I call it the apple 'n Grape fruit.  I got this by getting two photos on the internet.  One photo of a grapefruit the other of the inside of an apple.  I used the lasso tool to get just the inside of the apple.  Once I got the inside of the apple, I copied the inside and pasted it on the grapefruit.  Then, I used the distort, skew, and scale tool to get the inside of the apple to look natural.  When I thought my creation was complete, the Apple 'n Grape fruit was born.

Pictography - NES controller

 For my pictography, I chose and N.E.S. controller and made a smaller versions of the controller and duplicated the smaller version around the big controller.  I used the magic wand tool for the smaller controllers to get the black background from the original off the smaller N.E.S controllers.  I then duplicated the controller around the big controller and inside the controller as well as making really small N.E.S. controllers to make the words on the controller.  Below is the N.E.S. controller without the background.  It's called pictography, because you're using smaller pictures of a bigger picture to make one big picture out of smaller versions of that picture.

Black Swan Business Cards - Professional

For my professional business card, I tried to make it look clean, elegant, and better than my other business cards.  I made the font for the text AR Decode.  I made the background black, no effects or anything just a simple black.  I put a wave fill in the swan and made the colors in the fill black and white.  I used the handles on the fill to make the wave fill look right on the swan.  Also,  I added an inner bevel to the swan logo to have a bit of a more professional and fancy feel.  This is the business card that I tried to make look the most professional.

Black Swan Business Cards - Mid Range Professional

For my mid level business card I tried to make this look better than the unprofessional business card but also kind of basic.  I made a blue background with a waffle texture.  I made the text consistent with an AR Julian font.  I didn't do anything fancy with the black swan logo, I just left it how it is, but did the spiky look like the last business card.  I made this card to look better than the first business card, but not as good as my next black swan business card.

Black Swan Business Cards - Unprofessional

For my unprofessional business card, I made the card vertical with different font types and colors.  I also put an abstract multicolored image inside the swan by copying the abstract image, and pasting the image inside the swan.  I tried to make this as unprofessional as I can for this by having different font colors, different font types, odd color choices.  It wasn't really hard to make this look unprofessional.  I also messed the the black swan logo and made the wings a bit spiky.  I used both the Black Adder and AR Destine fonts for the text and had a red rectangle for the background.

Typography George Washington

For my typography of George Washington I chose the black adder font for the text and would find facts about him over the internet.  When I have a fact, I would make a separate layer for the fact, then I would find space on the face or neck area to put the fact on.  Once I have a spot for the fact, I would scale the fact with the scale tool, and use the skew tool to make the text look like it's natural, not just a bunch of words on his face.  I chose George Washington, because he's the first President of the U.S.A and I find all the facts about him interesting.  This is my first time doing typography, so the next time I do typography hopefully will be better.  The picture on the bottom is the typography without the background
