Assessment

I can design a range of documents. Here is an example of a document using the bank logo I designed. I used 'Adobe Illustrator' to create my logo, I used 'Word' to create my letter and I used 'Powerpoint' to screenshot my document so I could insert it into Blogger. I think my logo is a good logo for a professional document e.g a formal letter. I think that the audience of my document would be a professional audience like business people because it suits the name of my bank and is smart and looks professional. For my logo I used adobe illustrator and basically used circles and layered them on top of each other in the shape of a tree because the name of my bank is Branches. While I was making my logo I changed a lot of the shape of the tree and the size of the circles. I'm sure I will change it more when I complete my finished logo. I feel that my logo is a good logo because it suits the name of the bank and is very simple yet very effectively. Designs for company's can persuade costumers because if the company is being advertised, you don't want to write a lot of the company's details when you could use a small logo.

Animation

I chose 3 backgrounds and had 90 frames. I used different GIF's like a diver, birds, whales and fish to make my animation. My animation is underwater themed starting at the surface then going underwater for the other two backgrounds. To make my animation I used 'animation settings' to animate an image; a website called PicGifs to find my animated GIF's; 'duplicate frames' to make 90 frames and the magic wand tool to delete the backgrounds of certain images. I think my animation is an okay animation because I used the program fireworks for the first time and used different tools and website to make my animation better.
