"SEC20/WK6: Graphic Design Hands - On practical 3"

Here I will be sharing with you practically how I design the completion of my 6 weeks of graphic design which is part of the knowledge that I have gained so far. Below are the steps that I took in the design.

• Step: I launch my Canvas app, choose my dimensions, and set up my workplace.

• Step 2: Now you can see my background is set, as shown in the image, which the next thing I did was to click on a gallery to choose my preferred background image, which is about celebration, and enlarge it to my taste.

• Step 3: After setting my background image, I then select the Element icon and pick a square shape that you can see in the image. I change the color of the square shape to white.

• Step 4: I then click on Gallery select my photo and click on "Add to page** and resize the image to my preferred size.

• Step 5: I then click on the Text icon to write my first text as "Congratulations", and use "Rig Solid Medium Fill" as the font which you can see in the image that I have shared. I followed the same steps and wrote Week and Of and applied the principles of hierarchy to the text.

• Step 6: The next thing that I did was to write Graphic and select the Element icon I picked a square shape gave it color and resized the shape.

• Step 7: I resized my square shape and positioned it below my text, and I then used the principle of emphasis on "Design" by changing its color.

Final Design

The principles that I used.

In designing the above which has been presented to you, I applied some key principles that make the design look appealing.

Balance: I applied this principle to make sure there is a composition of both text fonts and images I applied the best colors for the texts to make the work balanced as everything is equal at both left, right top, and bottom.

Emphasis: I applied this principle to draw attention and highlight important words. The emphasis word is the Graphic Design which is color in red.

Hierarchy: This is the principle that I applied to show some differences in the size of text where the first text is larger than the second.

Avoid Edge to Edge: This is the principle that I use and maintain a margin around the images and text. It makes the design to look nice instead of cramping.
