ID Badge
(25 points) Due Friday 9/10/21
As we start getting to know Photoshop, it is important to master a few basic tools that will help us as we get into bigger projects this year. We will learn how to use; the text tool, different blend tools, quick selection tools, and most importantly, layers. The goal of this project is to create a made up “ID badge” either using a real company, place or a fictional company or place. Whichever way you decide to go, please select something that tells me something about you! Be sure to include the following items in your project.
Your ID badge must include:
A picture of yourself
Your first and last name (please use the name you wish to go by. EX: Kristi instead of Kristina)
Logo from whichever company or place you choose. EX: Jurassic Park, STAR Labs, Ministry of Magic, FBI, Sephora, NASA, etc.
Logos can be found on Google and placed in your document
Fake position of your selected place or company
Minimum of two colors
Include one fact about yourself
Whatever other decorations you like!
You may use the brush tool to draw or use found images off of Google
be creative with your designs! Don’t be afraid to add your personality into this project
