Having a small sketchbook and a few pencils in your bag is a must-have if you’re an illustrator, character designer, logo designer or any kind of artist.

I’ve been carrying my sketchbooks around with me since I can remember but I always kind of encounter the same problems; the lack of the right drawing equipment, becoming nervous when attracting attention from people who start asking me what I am drawing or just ran out of empty space on the paper. I think a common problem with sketchbooks is also that you never really sketch without thinking that this book is your portfolio and everything has to be perfect; from composition to shading. This videos helped me understand how was I supposed to use my sketchbook, how much money should I spend for it and how to carry it around. I’ve also shared a few fantastic sketchbooks.

Diggy dog saves christmas game design, originally uploaded by Ajda Gregorčič.

These are screenshots of a 3-minute game called Diggy dog saves christmas. The game was made by slovenian game development company Motiviti. The menus, buttons, logo and illustrations were designed by me. The task was to design a very shiny christmas-spirit interface to present the game and the control keys so the user can start playing it.

Agencija Zadrga je v sodelovanju s podjetjem Mio ustvarila celostno podobo oglaševalske akcije trgovskega giganta Spar - natečaj za naj dizajn Spar vrečke. Natečaj bo trajal en mesec, sodelujoči pa lahko s pomočjo interaktivnega Flash vmesnika na spletni strani www.spar-natecaji.si ustvarijo dizajn po lastni želji in ocenjujejo druge prispele dizajne.

Ustvarjanje oblik in sličic s premikanjem, povečevanjem, pomanjševanjem in manipuliranjem sličic sadja in zelenjave na podlagi se zdi marsikomu zelo zanimivo, bolj kot to pa je prva nagrada, Sparov bon v vrednosti 1500 €, precej mikavna in je že v prvih dnevih lansiranja oglaševalske akcije privabila pol tretji tisoč ustvarjalcev k oblikovanju zmagovalne kreativne rešitve.

Tudi jaz sem ustvarila dizajn z naslovom Gospod Zdravojed

Spletne ikone so eden najpogostejših grafičnih elementov spletnih strani. Pogosto jih uporabljamo v spletni komunikaciji kot zamenjavo za smeškote, s katerimi na alternativni, bolj ljubek in neposredni način sporočamo tekstovno vsebino. Ikone na spletnih straneh se pogosto pojavljajo kot bližnjice in povezave, v aplikacijah in mobilnh napravah pa brez ikon praktično ne gre. Prav zato se moramo pri oblikovanju ikon sredotočiti na deset pomembnih zakonitosti, s katerimi bomo lahko oblikovali konsistentne in uporabne spletne ikone.
