Brief Summary


All items on my blog are related to the Words and Image—assigned show &tell along with my commentary and in-class projects. 

In the Show &Tell, I’ve posted my thoughts about TAZO tea packaging and its website. It was an opportunity analyzing their layout and design, which inspires me to accomplish my project 6.  I’ve talked about BYOD—bring your own device—to understand how to clarify the complexity by applying color scheme and humorous graphics. Those are useful elements for a how-to process book. I’ve discussed campus printer, a good machine for in-class presentation. I’ve posted my thoughts inspired by a national garden magazine—how it uses white space to attract audiences to go through the text readily. I ‘ve analyzed an interesting ad in a travel magazine, in which visual hierarchy and audience consideration plays a key role for an awareness campaign. I ‘ve posted my analysis for a promotional postcard. It employed the proper color scheme, discreet font choice, and dependable sources promote the reliability of the sale. I’ve mentioned a successful poster, which is an excellent example of using words and images constructively—words versus image. I’ve discussed about a blogger team that describes their experiences as a story and records the scenery as news as well. I’ve chosen National Geographic as an example to state that digital publication is an irresistible trend in our world.

Furthermore, I put some of my projects into my blog, and got valuable feedbacks and suggestions from my classmates and professors.
