Ballona Creek Watershed Management Group Logo

noreply@blogger.com (http://abcmdesigns.com/) — Sun, 04 May 2025 21:50:00 +0000

One idea is to have the focus of the logo be a bat ray since they're commonly found in the Ballona Creek Estuary. The images generated below are getting at the idea somewhat, but I'd definitely appreciate your input/edits, and we'd also need to add the "Ballona Creek Watershed Management Group" text.

Dominguez Channel Watershed Management Group Logo Redesign

noreply@blogger.com (http://abcmdesigns.com/) — Mon, 11 May 2020 22:29:00 +0000

The Dominguez Channel Watershed Management Group consists of the City of Los Angeles as the coordinating agency for the Enhanced Watershed Management Program and Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program development, Los Angeles County, Los Angeles County Flood Control District, and the cities of El Segundo, Hawthorne, and Inglewood.

The Dominguez Watershed is located within the southern portion of Los Angeles County, California, and encompasses approximately 133 square miles of land and water. Approximately 81 percent of the watershed or 93 percent of the land is developed. Residential development covers nearly 40 percent of the watershed, and another 41 percent is made up by industrial, commercial and transportation uses. With a population of nearly 1 million, considerable demands are made on infrastructure and services within the watershed. Water supply is limited and the majority of water use is from imported sources. Parkland and open space are in short supply and generally are deficient.

Young Scientist Symposium 2012 (Cabrillo Marine Aquarium)

noreply@blogger.com (http://abcmdesigns.com/) — Thu, 22 Feb 2018 03:46:00 +0000

I decided to voluntarily make these flyers in the Winter- Spring season of 2012 to promote the Young Scientist Symposium. I went with the colors and text that were used to promote the event in the past.

Cabrillo Marine Aquarium will be hosting the fifth annual Young Scientists Symposium to celebrate student projects based at CMA to bring together scientists of all ages with the public to talk about our shared love of science. A poster session will be held from 3-5 p.m. in the Susanne Lawrenz-Miller Exhibit Hall and oral presentations will be shown from 5-6 p.m. in the John M. Olguin Auditorium. Members and colleagues are invited to stay until 7 p.m. to get to know our students and get a closer look at techniques and animals.

[Case Study] Classic Games

noreply@blogger.com (http://abcmdesigns.com/) — Sat, 09 Dec 2017 06:54:00 +0000

This was a potential job assignment but like many jobs, I had applied for recently I don't hear back from them. However, I decided to post these as Case Studies. I was going to design ﬁles provided for Free Cell and Minesweeper for the iOS. I had to draw inspiration from the current app and iterations of icons and screenshots. It should have the look and feel of current assets, but “updated” or “modernized”. The new assets were to be an improvement on the design, but still feel “familiar” to current users. I did do some research by visiting the app store page to create titles for the app screenshots that highlight the apps features and would entice a user to download this title over other competitors. Include these titles on the screenshots.

MIA Organization [Muslim in American]

noreply@blogger.com (http://abcmdesigns.com/) — Fri, 28 Jul 2017 19:15:00 +0000

Team: C. Ashley Brown and Yadira Garcia

Approach

The Muslim in American Association is committed to educating the American people about the importance of the 1st Amendment. We come up with a series of informative and powerful posters that will target many who do not follow or practice the faith.

Problem

According to the FBI website which states, “This year’s report, which contains data from 14,997 law enforcement agencies, reveals 5,850 criminal incidents and 6,885 related offenses that were motivated by bias against race, ethnicity, ancestry, religion, sexual orientation, disability, gender, and gender identity.” These statistics show that America can not follow what our country was founded on and that is our proudly call our U.S. Constitution; The First Amendment guarantees freedoms concerning religion, expression, assembly, and the right to petition. It forbids Congress from both promoting one religion over others and also restricting an individual’s religious practices. It guarantees freedom of expression by prohibiting Congress from restricting the press or the rights of individuals to speak freely. It also guarantees the right of citizens to assemble peaceably and to petition their government.

Objective

Our goal is to stop the discrimination and prejudice against Muslim Americans.

Abstract

This association is in agreement in stopping violence, prejudice, and discrimination that is fueled by civil unrest and religious bias against people who follow and practice the Islamic faith by improving public understanding and policies that impact American Muslims through these posters.

Summary

For this Public Service Announcement project we want to create a series of powerful and moving posters that will educate the American People about the Muslim American Struggle since 9/11. We want to use women who practice the faith as gate way to the American people about they go through and hopefully expand the project to include “set family image”. We also want to make sure these posters are also educational by including important statics about Muslim Americans. Our target audience are middle age to retiring age Americans.

Big Bang Mobile Game App Concept

noreply@blogger.com (http://abcmdesigns.com/) — Thu, 27 Apr 2017 05:40:00 +0000

Seunghyun was an underground rapper under the name of Tempo, and a childhood friend of G Dragon, another member and leader of Big Bang. Although G-Dragon later moved away and the two "became distant", he contacted Seunghyun again when YG Entertainment was scouting for candidates to create a boy band. The pair recorded several demos and sent them to Yang Hyun Suk, CEO of YG Entertainment, who later asked Seunghyun to audition. Seunghyun was initially rejected by the record label, which deemed him too "chubby" to fit the "idealistic version" of an idol. Seunghyun later stated that he "went home and exercised really hard because I wanted to join YG Entertainment." Six months later, he returned for another audition and was signed on. He reportedly lost 20 kg in 40 days. You play as Tempo now T.O.P, who is an up coming K-pop idol to reach his goal of becoming a world renouned K-pop star with his group members BIGBANG.

For this Collaborative Consumption Project we wanted to create a monthly subscription box to educate young woman and their partners about their menstrual cycle. We also wanted to target females between the ages of 16-45. The box will have tiered priced system ranging between $20-$50 a month that will include full size products, card about each product, exercises or meditation moves, and educational material. Between 2%-10% of the proceeds will go to fight cervical cancer, breast cancer, and other related research that have greatly benefited women around the world. The box is all sustainable and some of the products included will reflect and promote a more eco-friendly lifestyle when they sign up for the annual subscription. Young women can also sign up on our website to have access for more information and our online community to talk to other women and professional about their concerns, so they can enjoy a less stressful life.

News narratives became stories of what happened, and the discourse of how it happened becomes unrealistic operation of television news as a norm of social forces in American culture. American journalistic news media is expected to be objective. However, it also does not challenge cultural norms that have historically targeted people of color for policies and debates. In this project I will be focusing on urban media and how these norms disenfranchise the black community. The goal of this City-wide Campaign is to educated and spread awareness about the plight of Black communities in the media.

This was I a client I had chosen for my first assignment for Graphic Design 2. I was familiar with the client, Amy Lee due to her massive online presence, as a student and entrepreneurs. I designed for her a logo in which, I used a bold Geometric typeface, a San serif, and I used her a slogan as a tagline. I used mostly Photoshop to create the logo and slowly moved to illustrator for the layout of the assets.

The current outdated logo of Santa Monica College (SMC) wordmark definitely needs a redesigned. The step used to get final design included: asking questions, doing the research, mind mapping, sketching, digital comps. The design had to represent the beachy environment and be cohensive with the school’s pirate mascot and newspaper, which is represented by a ship steering wheel. The circular motif also represents SMC the large international student attending the college. In addition, colors used are a bright yellow to represent higher learning and the bright active environment. The other color used is a blue to repreent the calm sea, as well as, a sense of confidence. The finally result has flowerlike image that represent the bloom of knowledge.
