This project was unrelated to the English projects, instead just a way to take a short break away from just doing solely digital art. We started in Illustrator, with writing our names in cursive. We then reflected them horizontally and then added details and designs to our names. After Illustrator, we printed our designs onto watercolor paper, watercolored all the details, and flipped the paper to be in vertical orientation. Doing this, it is almost impossible to tell that our names were written, it just looks like fun designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"395\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/LuluD.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/LuluD.png 395w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/LuluD-148x300.png 148w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 395px) 100vw, 395px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Product Label, Logo, and Triptych:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The product design project as a whole was my favorite project in design this year! We created brands and then created their logo, their label, and then applied the label onto a mockup of the project, followed with a design on two merch item mockups to make up the triptych. I really enjoyed the freedom of what kind of company you wanted to make, and learning how to design their marketing in order to properly advertise to the right audience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">I was really inspired by retro soda companies, and decided that is what I wanted to do for my product! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Mood Board:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">In Design, we make mood boards in order to convey our inspiration and original ideas for our projects. We include color schemes, fonts, and images we want to try and emulate in some way. It is a great visual to see people&#8217;s ideas, even if the idea changes and strays away from the mood board. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"791\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Logo-Moodboard-1024x791.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Logo-Moodboard-1024x791.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Logo-Moodboard-300x232.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Logo-Moodboard-768x594.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Logo-Moodboard.png 1035w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Designing the logo:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">When designing the logo, I knew pretty instantly that I wanted a sort of mascot\/character to represent the brand in my logo. I thought a dog would be a cute idea, and I chose a Dalmatian specifically because they have a very known and iconic look which I think would be good for advertising. After going through a lot of names, I ended up with &#8220;Sparky&#8217;s Pop!&#8221; because its short but properly reflects the energy I want to reflect with my brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">My sketches for the logo:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"527\" data-id=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-1-1-1024x527.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-511\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-1-1-1024x527.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-1-1-300x155.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-1-1-768x396.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-1-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"649\" data-id=\"513\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-2-1-1024x649.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-2-1-1024x649.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-2-1-300x190.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-2-1-768x486.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-2-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"649\" data-id=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-3-1-1024x649.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-3-1-1024x649.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-3-1-300x190.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-3-1-768x486.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sparkys-Pop-Sketch-3-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The final logo:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"657\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte_Lulu_Product_Logo-1-1024x657.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte_Lulu_Product_Logo-1-1024x657.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte_Lulu_Product_Logo-1-300x193.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte_Lulu_Product_Logo-1-768x493.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte_Lulu_Product_Logo-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Designing the label:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For the product label, we had a list of things we needed to include, like net weight, a fake website, QR code, etc. We also had to find the mockups we wanted on PlaceIt, so we could figure out the dimensions we needed for the label. I had some problems here because I changed my mockup after I finished the design, so I had to go back and resize\/rearrange some parts of the design. I also ended up having to move the elements of the logo a bit just for spacing and alignment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">My final label:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"578\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Product-LabelREAL.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-515\" style=\"width:623px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Product-LabelREAL.png 578w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Product-LabelREAL-217x300.png 217w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 578px) 100vw, 578px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The triptych:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For the triptych, I found two more mockups on PlaceIt that I liked for merch, I ended up choosing a tote bag and a hat. I then placed the logo on the hat, and the label on the bag, adjusting what I needed to for the correct dimensions. For the product itself, I couldn&#8217;t find a mockup that had the kind of bottle I wanted besides beer mockups. To fix this I selected the beer in the bottle and recolored it in photoshop to look like orange soda instead of beer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Product-1024x525.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-516\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Product-1024x525.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Product-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Product-768x394.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Product.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Magazine Ad &amp; Video<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">As a continuation from the product design, we made a magazine ad for our product and also uploaded our label into a mockup video. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte_Lulu_Mag_Ad.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-519\" style=\"width:612px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte_Lulu_Mag_Ad.png 600w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte_Lulu_Mag_Ad-225x300.png 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"24 25 p6 Design Product LuluD\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eb-mcTd7dzk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Artist Statement:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">     I decided to choose a retro soda brand because I really love the look of old soda brands, and I felt a lot of inspiration with this idea. With other ideas I had I wasn&#8217;t very passionate about them, but once I thought of this idea the ideas started flowing. My mascot is a Dalmatian, \u201cSparky\u201d, and once I thought of him, I thought of the brand name, \u201cSparky\u2019s Pop!\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">     When making the logo, the process was overall pretty smooth because I had a clear idea of what I wanted to do. I started with sketches and then took it to Illustrator, and the logo was finished! The label was a bit more difficult to arrange because I had to separate each element of the logo to properly fit everything in the right dimensions of the bottle mockup from Placeit. I went through a couple variations of the label, but ultimately landed on the final one. Actually placing the label on the bottle was a bit difficult because they didn\u2019t have exactly what I wanted for the bottle, so the bottle I used is actually a beer bottle that, after placing the label, I selected the drink portion of it and put a photo filter on it to make it orange. That was probably the most difficult part of the project because I didn\u2019t know how I was going to make it work, but once I realized that I could just edit the coloring, it all worked out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Movie Poster &amp; Book Jacket<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For the next big project in design, we made a book jacket and movie poster based on our treatments from English. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Book Jacket Mood board:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For my book cover, I really liked the idea of having some sort of face\/silhouette on the cover. I also wanted to express the aspect of performative feminism that is very essential to our book, so I found some inspiration from old Vogue covers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Book-Jacket-MB-1024x768.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Book-Jacket-MB-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Book-Jacket-MB-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Book-Jacket-MB-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Book-Jacket-MB-800x600.png 800w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Duarte-Lulu-Book-Jacket-MB.png 1067w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For the book jacket, we had include aspects like a barcode, an About the Author, reviews on the back cover, etc. We had brought in hard cover books that had book jackets, then measured the book jackets and made the file with those dimensions.

I decided on a more constricted color scheme to show that the women in this story are in a trapped society&#8212;the only color I used besides black and white was red. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/LuluD-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-539\" style=\"width:584px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/LuluD-1.jpg 540w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LuluD\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/LuluD-1-203x300.jpg 203w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Artist Statement:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">     The Highest Bid is a story that Rachel Berry, Jane Reall, and I created from the English Worldbuilding project. It focuses on our main character, Esther, and her life as a woman under a society that sells women off into marriage through bidding\u2014to where they are heavily controlled by the government as to what to wear, say, and do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">     For the creation of the poster, I wanted to focus mainly on the aspect of our story that women are just meant to perform and conform. I went with a mannequin as my subject because I feel it perfectly represents how the women in our story are seen as objects that serve no real individual purpose, their purpose instead; to serve all of those around them. I created the poster through photoshop, using images from\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/pexels.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pexels.com<\/a>. I had to crop, edit, and remove the background from the main image. I also decided to make it black and white, as I liked it more aesthetically. I went for a red background because it matched my color scheme and I liked the dramatic pop of color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">     I really enjoyed making the movie poster, I thought it was really interesting learning what text placements and colors draw certain people to certain movie posters. I also had a lot of fun with creating the poster because I had a clear vision of what I wanted to do and I was able to achieve that, which is very rewarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reflection:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Overall, these projects were my favorite projects from Design from all of Freestyle. I had so much fun especially with the product design, I feel like we had a lot of creative freedom with these projects. I also liked that the book cover and movie poster were connected to our English project, because I was very passionate about our story and its themes, so I was really excited to explore them visually and find ways to represent them. I also enjoyed working with multiple Adobe platforms, specifically for the book jacket &#8212; designing graphic design elements in illustrator and then organizing them and adding all the right text and photos in InDesign. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cursive Name Art Our first project in design under the Narrative category was a Cursive Name Art scan.
