 The one thing that caught my eye when I went to the MET, was the big Christmas tree. The tree was adorned with cherubs and about some fifty angels suspended in the tree.  At the base of the tree, the scenery of the Neapolitan Christmas crib is being represented by the different figures. There are three different elements that are being presented at the base: the Nativity with the adoring shepherds and their flocks, the processions of the three Magi who dressed retinue echoes the merchants and travelers one may have encountered in bustling Naples at the time of the crèche's creation and, most distinctive, colorful peasants and townspeople engaged in their quotidian tasks. The theatrical scene is enhanced by a charming assortment of animals such as sheep, goats, horses, a camel, and an elephant. In the background, several pieces serve as the dramatic setting for the Nativity, including the ruins of a Roman temple, several quaint houses, and a typical Italian fountain with a lion's-mask waterspout.

For this project  had to create a brochure on a topic that I thought was important for people to know about. I chose stray animals. I think this is an important topic because people don't have any idea how many dogs are actually homeless and roam the streets. My brochure had to be informative so what I included was what people can do to help so these animals aren't abandoned anymore. I also included the reason why they are abandoned and if they're really dangerous animals. I also included the place that has helped so many of these animals find a home and those are animal shelters. In there, animals get fed and taken care of while having a temporary place ti sleep until they can find a forever home. I find these skills useful because later on I can create brochures that can promote my company of anything that I need to promote and I will be able to make it attention calling and i will know what to do to aim it at certain age groups.

What I did in this lab was that I read chapter 3 which was about Illustrator and it taught me how to use the pen tool and how to move the line a certain way. I also learned how to use shapes and to move them around to be able to edit them. I then took a quiz which made me use those skills to make a line ,done with the pen tool, look like an "M". It also made me use the pen tool to create various shapes but be able to edit them to look unique and to colour them in. I envision myself using these skills to create a unique pattern of some sort that would look really good if used as an outline in a website or business card.

For this project I had to create different types of logos. There are three different types of logos that I had to create iconic, logo and combination. The way that I had to create these logos was by using my initials DNAV. I had to use something to inspire me and what I used was the city since one of my logos was the skyline.I also used the a DNA strand as an inspiration for two of my logos since it matches with my initials and it was very creative. I used different types of fonts to create my three letter logos with my initials. I see myself using these skills to create better logos when I do my business cards/
