The end goal of the Illustrator project was to create a design within Illustrator to be transferred onto some object of our choosing. The options for the project ranged from creating a Moroccan candle shade to laser engraving on our phones. I chose to design a sheet of stickers for my project. One of the things I knew going into the project was that I wanted to design stickers not just that I would enjoy, but that meant something to others in my life. I asked my family what kind of stickers they would like to have and I got a list of inside jokes and somewhat odd requests. So I chose a few of the suggestions and designed stickers around them.
My sister asked me to make her a lab test tube, she is very enthusiastic about science. I also designed a cast iron pan because one of my family members just really wanted a sticker of a cast iron pan. Another sticker I designed referenced a ridiculous phrase that will be forever quoted in our household. I made several different sizes of my SVC sticker, which stands for Silicon Valley Coalition. This is the coalition my Youth and Government delegation is a part of. We have sweatshirts that we wear at our statewide conferences with all of the Youth and Government Coalitions so we are always looking for ways to show SVC pride. I thought a sticker would be an awesome thing to be able to give to my coalition members.
I absolutely loved this project. I had so much fun designing stickers for friends and family. The artistic license that we were given made this project one of the best projects in Digital Media yet.
