Learning

He had a project where he had to make a homepage for a place called esrumsø
esrumsoe.7effery.dk




He started the multimedia education with no or a little knowledge of the different programs and subjects in the education.

He started out learning about Html basics, where he made a simple homepage with the html codes he learned from the class. He learned to use the codes fast but struggled to remember them all later on. Once he started on the project Portfolio he also got introduced to Selfbranding which he had worked with before and therefore thought about this once he made the homepage portfolio. The only problem he had where that he couldn´t decide how he wanted the homepage 100% and this were a big struggle for getting out the signal that he wanted. But he tried the best he could and knows that he will make a new homepage soon with more selfbranding.

He got a new project where he and his group had to make three banners for a travel agency.
They sat down and started the processes needed before the end product can be made. They agreed to make three different destinations showing that this trave agency could make anything happen. They had some limits in the assignment as the banners had to be in the winter time. They chose to focus on the New year and Christmas. Also they chose to make package travels. This means that you can get a luxury holiday and at the same time experience the New year in China. They worked in three programs called: Illustrator Photoshop and Flash. They learned how these programs could work together and got better at using the individual programs as well. They made a logo for the trave lagency. They chose to make the banners move so it would draw attention from the actual homepage that the user visits. They trued out some things and some of it didnt work as planned. With only three days to make the banners they came up with three banners showing that this travel agency could make everything happen.

Design & visualisation

Once he started on the multimedia education he didn´t have any knowledge of the programs in the adobe master collection. Therefore he had a lot to learn about the programs that he was going to work with the next two years and possibility of more. He got some lessons and found out how to use some of the applications in Photoshop and was able to make some first basic posters.


He started learning how the pictures could work together and how you could take one item from one picture to another and adjust it with the size and surroundings.
He even learned how to respray a car so it got a new color or fix small failures in the picture such as a text from the original picture that he needed to delete. He also learned how to make the picture smaller by cutting out the unnecessary background making the picture work better with its message to the viewers. The last thing he learned was how to fit in a text message to the picture.

He found out that he would make a poster about the environmental problems that are caused because of cars. Therefore he started to look on how he could do this and what message he would sent to the people. He quickly found out what and how he wanted to do this and started the work progress.
He started out with the background:



Once he had the background it was time to find a car. He had multiply choices and could take what he felled fitted the best in the picture. He ended up with:


He had the idea of making the car become one with nature and decided to give it a repaint with flowers. Therefore he took two pictures of flowers to use for the new paint job.


Now he only had the text to add to the picture where he had to come up with some kind of slogan. after a few days with inputs from the world giving him idea´s he came up with one and he could finish his work which ended up looking like this:


As you can see Jacob Pedersen has marked this photo with his logo. You will find this logo on the things Jacob Pedersen have made here are some more examples of Jay P designs work.


This project Jacob Pedersen learned how to take an elephant into another picture and adjust it with size and shadow so it looks real.


Jay P Design choose to make this project since they were arranging an event for the Superbowl 09 and therefore needed a poster as commercial.
