Photoshop Business Card Project



For our final photoshop project in my contemporary design class, I had to design an original business card from scratch. The process started with a design document where I had to do research on font types color schemes and my original artwork design. After I picked my font and color scheme I used the fill tool to make the whole paper the background color. I used the brush tool and began to add my colors and design to it. Once I was happy with the card I added the text boxes with the title and all of my information.


The design document helped me to pre plan how my business card would look. This template included the color scheme and font I will be using for my project. I used several sources for this project to help with the design process.

What is Contemporary Media?

My first assignment in my Contemporary Media class is to define the word Contemporary Media.
Contemporary means modern and media means communication like technology, music, or the internet. In this class we design logos and websites on a computer to create designs by using photoshop, while gaining experience to become a graphic and web designer. You can create art and logos in this class helping us out by being creative, because the possibilities are endless.
