The North Metro Regional Technology
Fair has a new logo for 2008! Several of Cobb County middle
and high school students designed original, pure black and white
artwork, and competed in our technology fair logo contest.
Camille P., a
Freshman at
Kennesaw Mountain High School,
created this winning design using Paint and MS Word.
Camille won an iPod nano, compliments of the Cobb County
Instructional Technology Department. Camille's original design
will be printed on all student and worker t-shirts at the 2008
North Metro Regional Technology Fair. Congratulations
Camille! |

ARTIST'S STATEMENT
Every student who
enters the logo competition has to complete an Artist's Statement
about the what, how and why of their artwork. Here are a few
words from Camille:
About the Process...
My logo is a
computer with a winking face. Out of the computer extends an arm
with a claw that is holding up the 'N' in the North Metro and
extending from the other side is a chain with a pair of scissors
pointing toward the word 'Regional'. Underneath the computer are
the words 'Technology Fair' with an arrow pointing towards the
word 'Fair', and connected to the computer is a cord that is
connected toward the number two in the bottom right corner. For
the date '2008' I used a gear as the first aero and inside of it
is a mouse, the date is located in the bottom right corner.
I made the entire
logo in Microsoft Word and Paint. I made the shape of the
computer, the claw, the scissors, the cord and the chain in
Paint, and used Word Art to create the words and used the basic
shapes tool on Microsoft Word to create the arrow. I edited all
the pieces in Paint, and then I rearranged them in Microsoft
Word.
About her Choices....
The world as we know it
is definitely moving quickly in its technological advancements.
Computers are being used every day to do just about everything.
You hear new and amazing things that computers are being
programmed to do on a daily basis. Almost everyone comes in
contact with a computer every day. I think that computers are
becoming the basis of technology because it connects the whole
world together, and they can basically be programmed to do a
wide variety of things. It's interesting to watch the world of
technology grow, and with the computer it is easy to see that
happen. |
